Are you that Web Watch reader who’s stuck at work, just hankering to look at some images that your company would consider to be NSFW (that’s “not safe for work”, for those new Web Watch readers who may not be familiar with the term).
Look – Web Watch understands that some of our readers may be a bit addicted to pornography, so we’re here to help. We’ve found a website that’s perfectly acceptable for you to view at work, even though it is 100% filled with explicit, pornographic images.
In some divorces, couples fight over who gets the toilet paper.
One of Web Watch’s friends wanted out of his marriage so badly, he left everything behind. The ex-wife got everything – including his clothes. He felt it was easier to just replace all his stuff then it was to have to deal with her in any way.
Yeah, that was a rough divorce, but rest assured that he’s in a much, much happier place now.

Have you ever quit your job?
Web Watch knows someone who didn’t actually quit their job – they just stopped showing up while they went to work elsewhere. The employer kept paying them and kept them on the payroll for months, before figuring out that person wasn’t going to come back. It was more of a quiet, subtle quit process.
But quitting can bring such joy to people, if they do it with passion.
Bored?
Looking for something fun to do?
Why not take a few minutes to poke around with Google?
(“Hey, Web Watch – we already know how to use Google,” you say. Of course you do. But here’s how to have FUN with Google search…)

So the other day, Web Watch was having some drinks with friends when the topic of party music came up.
Of course, we all broke out singing Red Solo Cup
Which only prompted us to sing the song louder and at every available opportunity.
And that’s when the conversation shifted from FUN PARTY SONGS to WORST SONGS FOR STRIPPERS TO DANCE TO.
The overall winner?
Well, another one has finally arrived.
The WOOT.COM BOC (affectionately known as a “Bag of Crap”, or any other acronym that contains the letters “B.O.C.”) is here.
As Web Watch previously told you about when we ordered our WOOT BANDOLIER OF CARROTS, WOOT.COM occasionally offers grab bags of assorted merchandise for $3 (plus $5 shipping and handling). When you place your order, you have no idea what you’re going to get.
Just like the TV show LET’S MAKE A DEAL, sometimes you’ll end up with the most awesome prize ever, or you might get zonked.
Let’s take a look at what Web Watch hauled in this time around for our $8 investment:
Some offices let their workers enjoy “casual Fridays”, where employees can trade in their khakis and button-down shirts for Levis and polo shirts.
Web Watch knows of one company where they require the staff to wear suits to work once a month (every other day is a “business casual” environment).
And don’t get Web Watch started on those companies we’ve visited where some women feel that flip-flops are appropriate for the office. We already know that shouldn’t be allowed, no matter what organization you’re in.

If you’re not reading Cosmopolitan magazine, you’re doing yourself a disservice.
Seriously, their annual SEX ISSUE is hands-down, one of the funniest reads you’ll have all year.
And it’s all because of their regular survey feature of SEX QUESTIONS (“We answer the naughtiest things on your mind, in 20 words or less”).

“BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE!”
“I’ve fallen, and I can’t get up!”
“Pay just shipping and handling…”
All of these catchphrases have become part of the lexicon of late night television viewing. But for every Oxyclean success story, there are millions of other As Seen on TV products that doing everything they can to get the word out that they are out there for sale.
And the ubiquitous commercials have become ripe for parody. Take a look at these hilarious audio overdubs of some of your favorite late night TV viewing choices:
Web Watch was talking with a friend of ours the other day, and they had this to share about their home bathroom experience:
It’s my belief that while at home, the person who uses the toilet last is obligated to ensure that they leave the bowl clean for the next occupant. It should not be the obligation of the next in line to take care of business for the previous pooper.
They then went on a rant about how their partner doesn’t give the bowl a second look while on their way out the door, leaving any extraneous flushing and/or plunging to someone else.
This ended up turning into a huge argument between the two of them that night, which – while slightly uncomfortable to witness firsthand – will be an amusing discussion topic amongst the Web Watch circle for years to come. One side comment along the way was
I’d rather stick my own hand in the water than have someone else plunge my poo.
Which reminds us of another question regarding how much one should tip the hotel maintenance staff for having to make an after-hours plunger delivery to ones hotel room. We were told $10 was the going rate, but something tells me you could get by with just $5.
But we digress.
Web Watch agrees that this type of thing can happen to anyone.
Everybody has some odd roommate story that they can share. We went through 6 months of one roommate never doing their own laundry.
What?
Yeah, it’s true. Many years back, we shared an apartment with two guys… and one of them, apparently, didn’t have any socks of his own. He would “borrow” socks from Web Watch (we shudder to think if he was “borrowing” underpants from our other roommate), and then toss the dirtys into the appropriate hamper for the unsuspecting soul to wash on laundry day.
For a while, Web Watch could never understand why we were always running out of clean socks ahead of where we thought we would be in the laundry cycle. Sure, we figured it out – but by then, it was too late. A use pattern had set in.
Luckily, we were able to kick him out – and laundry returned to normal levels.
Web Watch has spent enough time out at bars and restaurants to recognize when a date seen across the room is heading in the wrong direction.
It could be a subtle sign, like a couple sitting at the table not talking to each other or engrossed in their cellphones instead of each other — or it could be something a bit more blatant, such as a heated discussion that slowly escalates to the point where the whole room is involved in some manner.
Heck, even when if comes to married life, we know plenty of couples who should have seen the writing on the wall well before the divorce papers were a conversation topic… if only they had asked us for our honest opinion of where we thought their relationship was heading.
