How to Dress Like a Unicorn

“How can you dress like a unicorn?”

Surprisingly, it’s not a question that Web Watch gets asked often, but the fact that we’ve been asked how to impersonate a unicorn at least once is reason enough to write about this phenomenal product that we have found over at Amazon:

Magical Unicorn Mask (Creepy)
Magical Unicorn Mask

That’s right.   If you want to look like a unicorn, you have to get yourself a Magical Unicorn Mask, in adult size.

Seriously, how could you NOT buy a unicorn mask, now that you know it’s available?

Disney Princesses in Real Life, a photo essay

Jirka Väätäinen is a Finnish design student at Bournemouth, and he wants to be very clear that his name is pronounced “Yirka”, not “Jerk-a”.

Web Watch has no reason to quibble with him on this, as he’s doing some phenomenal work on RE-IMAGINING DISNEY PRINCESSES as if they were real-life people.

Sure, we’ve seen some other examples of this with live models, but Jirka is taking a slightly different approach on this with his photo-realistic, manipulations that are designed to showcase what the Disney Princess would look like as an actual person.

Not a cartoon caricature, but really-for-real people.

Let’s take a quick look…

Going on a first date? Here’s what your drink choice says about you…

First dates are always rough.

Especially if it’s a blind date.

You’re typically going to meet at a bar (a “safe place” for some), and order a couple of drinks and have a few laughs.

The hope is that you want to hit it off, and maybe Get Some later tonight.  But you may have completely ruined your chances before you even opened your mouth.

Why?

Because First Impressions are a key element to having a successful First Date.   And there is one thing you can do to ensure that your first impression is a good one.

And that’s to be careful with what you’re seen with as your first drink.

Are you an ethical diner? Here’s how to select the best-run restaurant for your next meal

We all enjoy eating out at restaurants.

The food is typically well-prepared, and who doesn’t enjoy being waited on by a young go-getter who is eager to please and provide the Ultimate Dining Experience?

Ok, well maybe not every restaurant you eat at ends up being the Ultimate Dining Experience, but go with us on the concept here.

Let’s look at this from another viewpoint – if you were going to work at a restaurant, would you rather work at a restaurant that provided the Ultimate Employee Experience, or one that treated all of their employees without care?

The Top 100 Greatest Childrens Books of All Time

With all of today’s technologic gadgets and whizbang toys, parents everywhere often find themselves struggling to get their kids to expand their minds instead of simply sitting in front of a computer, mindlessly chatting with their friends on Club Penguin or Facebook.

And there’s nothing wrong with encouraging kids to read a little bit more once in a while.

It won’t hurt you. Heck, today’s kids really liked those Harry Potter books, and even some parents did too — even though Harry Potter really was a childrens book. Even JK Rowling admitted that.

So when the magazine SCHOLASTIC PARENT & CHILD decided to put together their own list of the 100 GREATEST BOOKS FOR KIDS, you knew that there would be some high-quality classics on here.

So parents – we have two questions for you:

  • How many of the following books have you read yourself?
  • How many of the following books do you know your kids have read?

Where was that album cover photo taken?

You have a large collection of CDs and albums, right?

And you’ve spent many a night, listening to album after album while studying those album and CD covers for inspiration of what the band was feeling like at the time the album was made.

You know, so you could really connect with the band, the same way that music was connecting with you.

How many bras does the average woman own?

Pop quiz: How many bras does the average woman own?

An even better question is how many women own bras that they’ve never even worn?

With women lamenting the high cost of bras (well, good ones, at least), one would think that women would be more careful about ensuring that their underwear money… excuse us, lingerie money… goes to good use.

The answer comes from an online retailer who surveyed women about their bra-buying and wearing habits.

How big is the universe?

Do you remember a few years ago when Web Watch showed you a REAL-WORLD COMPARISON OF GERM SIZES?

You were able to zoom in from the size of a sheet of paper down to the size of a carbon atom.  Along the way, you could see and compare the sizes of different germs when compared to common, everyday objects.

Yeah, not too shabby, and kinda cool.

But what if we wanted to take the same concept, and compare the sizes of pretty much everything in the entire universe to, well, the entire universe?
