Who’s going to win the Best Bathroom in America contest?

They say that you can tell a lot about a place of business (whether it be a fancy hotel, a fast-food restaurant, or your neighbor’s house — assuming your neighbor’s place would be considered a place of business) just by looking at their bathroom.

If the bathroom is dirty, then it’s likely the rest of the establishment isn’t being kept up-to-par.

If it’s a sparkly-clean restroom, then you can tell that the business cares about their customers.

How bad is your office bathroom? So bad that nobody wants to wash their hands there

Web Watch has seen some pretty stinky office bathrooms, both literally and figuratively.

There was one office bathroom where you had to get the key from the receptionist at the front desk, as locking the door was the only way to keep non-employees from using a bathroom that they weren’t supposed to have access to.  We’re sure the receptionist didn’t like knowing each individual’s bathroom habits any more than we liked having to share them with her.

There was the office restroom that didn’t have any stall doors.

The bathroom that perpetually smelled like rotten fish.

And then there was the building that had a serial pooper.  Every two weeks or so, a stranger would wander into the building and spread feces all over the men’s and women’s restrooms.  This went on for about three months, until security was finally able to identify the mentally-challenged person and have them taken to a location that could help them.

So when Web Watch says that we know a bad office bathroom situation when we see – or smell – one, believe it.

The 100 Saddest Songs

Elton John probably said it best: “sad songs say so much”.

We all have our own “go to” music that we listen to whenever we’re going through a difficult time.  Some use music to help reinforce one’s feelings; others use music to get the listener to a certain emotional level.

It’s no secret that there are “happy” songs; heck, we all thrive on toe-tapping hits that make us feel good.

But there is a market, a need for “sad” songs as well.

10 Ways to Spot a Douchebag

Sometimes you just want somebody to tell you that you’re being one.

Sometimes you like to point it out in others.

Let’s face it – douchebags can be lots of fun — especially to those people who feel that they’re not being a douche at the time.

But while it may have been cool to even be aHipster Douchebag, maybe it’s time to hang up the duckface and move on to other things.

Pop Quiz: how well do you know your Victorian sex terms?

Back in the day, Web Watch took a college course in Human Sexuality.

It was supposed to be one of those “easy A”-type classes, but sometimes when word gets around about the alleged “underwater basketweaving” reputation of a college course — even one seemingly as trivial as Human Sexuality — the Powers That Be decide to makde some dramatic changes by firing the teaching staff and hiring new professors to turn the class into something a bit more… challenging.

So now we were stuck with writing essays about the Human Condition, and discussing “feelings”.

It ended up being a much more difficult course than those who took previous semesters had experienced.

Damn them.

How many dates should you have before saying, “I Love You”?

Web Watch knows one couple who decided to get married after just one month of dating — and they’ve been happily married ever since.

There’s another couple we know that have been together for about a year… yet they haven’t yet appeared at an event together as a couple.  Friends are still asking when they’ll get to meet the other half – or if they ever will.

When it comes to dating, some people have specific rules:  no kissing until the third date, for example.  Or no sex until at least after meeting the parents (because meeting the parents represents a significant step forward in ones’ relationship).

7 Underwear Features that Consumers Demand Most

How much time have you spent contemplating your underwear?

Ladies – we all know that you have segregated your underwear drawer into “everyday”, “date night”, “special occasion”, and “laundry day” categories.  There may be more, but women seldom like to be privvy to their private stash.

Men, on the other hand, have “everyday”, “laundry”, and “not quite laundry”.

Guess what: people tend not to respect you if you’re having too much sex

It should be an obvious conclusion: if you’re having lots of sex — and Web Watch is talking about you having way more sex than your peers are — then you shouldn’t be surprised if those same peers have a lower opinion of you.

Which does lead to the obvious question, if you’re not having all that extra sex with your peers — then who ARE you having all that sex with?  But we digress…lets get back to the question at hand…
