By web gangsta | Published: January 2, 2012


Disney Princess Tattoos

Disney Princesses have inspired many fantasies, for girls and boys alike.

Girls, because they want to be just as glamorous, rich, desired… and more recently, smart and self-sufficient.   

Web Watch has covered the Disney Princess phenomenon in the past, from both a business and a fantasy viewpoint (Briana Garcia and her Funny Disney Princesses being a popular page here on Web Watch).

So why do boys like the Disney Princesses?  Because let’s face it — in the right circumstance, Disney Princesses can be hot.  Heck, how can you explain why seven dwarves fought over Snow White?

Another good Twitter idea taken. Isn’t that right, @OldManSearch ?

Twitter for Dummies
Twitter for Dummies

File this one under “Yet Another Brilliant Idea that Web Watch Didn’t Think of First”.

Of course, first we’d have to get an 81-year-old father who didn’t understand how to use the Internet. 

Norman N is just that guy.  And he has a funny kid who decided to bring Dad into the 21st century.

And thus was born Old Man Search

Calvin & Hobbes, 26 years later. If only it were true…

By web gangsta | Published: May 22, 2011


Calvin & Hobbes, the last cartoon
Calvin & Hobbes’ Last Cartoon

Comic fans around the world mourned when Bill Watterson decided to stop writing CALVIN & HOBBES.  Considering how much demand there still is for various Calvin or Hobbes merchandise based on the sheer number of counterfeit “Calvin peeing” stickers one sees on the back of pick-up trucks around the country, it was only a matter of time before someone picked up the gauntlet for us fans.

Demand for Bill Watterson’s drawings is so high, any new art from him is newsworthy to the point where the Washington Post had to write an article about Watterson’s first released art in 16 years.

You know how you and your buddies all sit around on lazy Sunday afternoons just drinking a few beers and watching the game when one of you comes out with some random-ass deep thought about some TV show or movie or something, and it makes complete total sense to everyone else in the room where everyone says, “yeah, why is that, Dude?” and you all nod your heads in agreement but when it comes the next day nobody remembers what the hell you guys were talking about in the first place?

Then OVERTHINKING IT is a website for you.

Email for Seniors: a step-by-step guide for the computer shy

How many of you are scared about your parents being on email or following/friending you on social networks?

Yeah.

Thought so.

Does it help if you knew that you were not alone?  That pretty much everyone doesn’t want to have any more interaction with their parents than was already being provided by phone or Sunday evening dinners?

Words that are not needed: “Baby Daddy”, “Mancave”, and “Vajayjay”. (Vajazzle, you’re okay)

By web gangsta | Published: February 14, 2011


Man Cave: Enter at Your Own Risk
Man Cave: Enter at Your Own Risk

There are some phrases that Web Watch just can’t stand hearing anymore.

“Mancave”.

“Baby Daddy” or “Baby Momma”.

And we’re not alone about some phrases driving people bonkers:  Ian Hare wrote about NOT LIKING THE WORD “VAJAYJAY” either.

Look, we’re all adults here.  Why sugarcoat these terms into things that are not what they seem?

GLAMOUR THROUGH YOUR LENS: A Centerfold Photographers Guide to Exciting Photography
GLAMOUR THROUGH YOUR LENS:
A Centerfold Photographers Guide to Exciting Photography

Not everybody looks good in pictures.

At our local grocery store, the store management has their headshots all lined up near the cash registers so that the customers can easily recognize who’s in charge.

All the photos are standard grocery store headshots: blue background, corporate-looking shirt (with and without a tie, depending on managerial level).  You know the type of pictures these are, and they all look like they were taken the same day… well, all but one photo on the wall were like this.

One picture stood out from the rest: it was the picture of one of the female managers, taken at GLAMOUR SHOTS.  Fuzzy purple boa, feathers in the hair, sultry/pouty pose while looking over a shoulder, heavy hairspray and makeup.  In other words, not exactly what we customers would want to see as a store representative of our food and beverage supermart.

STFU
STFU

Are you sick and tired of those happy new parents who think everything that their little angel does is absolutely freakin’ perfect?

While you can typically deal with them in person – especially if they’re close friends – there are thousands of more annoying people like that online.

An obvious (and unfortunate) side-effect of the “Root Suit”

Full Body Spandex Suit - Morph Suit
Full-body Spandex Morphsuit (pick your color)

So the other day, Web Watch was participating in the monthly WOOT-OFF when we saw them talking about the ROOT SUIT. 

We know you’ve seen the ROOT SUIT on TV this football season — it’s been featured gameday wear for any number of collegiate and NFL football fans eager to get on TV but without having to show their face.

There are other versions and names out there: the MORPH SUIT,  Zentai, a full-body spandex suit, the lycra outfit, the Spiderman getup.  And they’re all the same basic thing — a costume that you can hide in public in.

I Am Woman

Remember F***MY LIFE (aka “FML”) that Web Watch told you about last year?

That’s the website where people bitch and complain about how their life sucks more than yours, and everyone gets to vote on their favorite F-ups?

Apparently, that site wasn’t catering directly enough to women.
