Still relevant: Millennials love to shop at the mall


By web gangsta | Published:

Sure, Robin Sparkles may have made LET’S GO TO THE MALL a big hit in Canada, but that was a long time ago.

When was the last time that YOU, Web Watch reader, went to the mall on your own just to wander around?

Chances are, you haven’t.  Most malls and major mall retailers appear to be losing retail sales — except Apple Stores — primarily due to online retailing.   But should malls still worry?

How many weddings do you expect to attend this year?

If you’re at the age where all your friends are getting married seemingly every other weekend all summer long, perhaps you should think again about saying “yes” to every RSVP that comes your way.

Women will spend 72 days of their lifetime doing this one task


By web gangsta | Published:

It’s a well-worn comedic observation: women just take forever in the bathroom, getting ready.

Maybe that explains why we always see women driving down the highway in morning commuter traffic, still putting on their makeup with their hair in rollers, if only to save themselves an extra 10-15 minutes of sleep.

Why do their beauty regime at home in front of a mirror when you can do the same thing driving at 75 MPH while weaving in and out of traffic?

Guess who was voted as having the worst hairstyle of the 21st century?


By web gangsta | Published:

Some people are known for having a really nice head of hair.

It’s one of the first things you comment on when you see a co-worker with a new ‘do: “hey, did you get a haircut?” we ask, as if getting a hair cut is something that people don’t tend to do every 6-8 weeks or so (depending on the person, of course).

Why are we so fascinated with hair, either having it or being jealous of someone who has more (or less) than we do?

What was the best video game system ever made?


By web gangsta | Published:

Web Watch has owned a fair number of home video game systems over the years.

Among others, we’ve had your basic PONG machine, the classic Atari 2600, a Nintendo Game Boy, Turbografx 16, Xbox, various Playstations, and a Wii.  An entire industry could be devoted to the number of random game cartridges we have lying around for defunct (or soon to be defunct) systems.

At what age do men look their best?


By web gangsta | Published:

They say that people get better looking as they get older.

More specifically, men get “more distinguished” as they age, and women get more… well, old.

It’s an unfair comparison, but life can be cruel.

And mean.

And hurtful.

And truthful.

By web gangsta | Published:

What’s the age difference between you and your current partner?

Are you one who likes your spouse to be a little bit older than you are, or perhaps a little younger?

Times have past since our parents’ generation, where it was not unusual to marry your high school sweetheart, someone who you graduated with in the same class.  Or even those times when your soulmate was just one year ahead or behind you.

By web gangsta | Published:

The job aside, there’s the whole political game going on, where everybody is jockeying to be in the next position available for career advancement.  Yeah, it may be a jungle out there, but the office jungle can be a pretty rough place too.

Some get in trouble for not speaking up enough; others get in trouble for speaking up too much.  How do you find the balance between the two?

The number one reason people hate buying a new car


By web gangsta | Published:

When was the last time you purchased a car (whether it be new or used)?

Chances are, unless you’re in a sales job with a company-provided vehicel, you’re not one of those people who go out and buy a car every two years.

Maybe it’s because the car buying experience is not something that we do every day that we approach the process with a bit of hesitation and apprehension..
