Seriously?
A recent survey has come out that asked over 1,000 men if it was okay to hit a woman if she did something to make him angry.

Interviewing for a new job can be a stressful experience. You’re trying to make the best first impression, and the employer liked your resume enough to warrant giving you a chance.
Web Watch believes that anything that’s mentioned on a resume is fair game to talk about during an interview. So if you don’t want to talk about that 8-month stint where you were an executive assistance to Jennifer Anniston if that job didn’t give you any skills that are applicable to what you’re applying for, then you might want to leave that off.
Greg Tung wanted to make this past year the most interesting year of his life.
Inspired by a quote by Eleanor Roosevelt (“Do one thing every day that scares you”), Greg decided that he was going to do just that for 365 days (plus one, to cover for leap year).
Now, everybody’s definition of what makes things “scary” is different. Greg summed “scary” up as things that he would normally go out of his way to avoid doing if he had the choice to do so.
So Greg went ahead to chronicle this personal adventure on his website, SCARE YOURSELF EVERY DAY, which Web Watch will predict will get turned into another one of those great blog-to-book projects we’ve talked about previously (Cake Wrecks, we’re looking at you!). It’s more likely to happen, since as part of the Scare Yourself project, Greg quit his job to focus on his dream of becoming a writer.
Yeah, quitting your job to follow a dream is definitely on everyone’s list of things that can scare the crap out of you.
A few months back, Web Watch wrote about the TOP 100 RESTAURANTS IN THE WORLD.
Now, while you may not be able to travel all around the world to eat at one of the top 100 restaurants, you could always try treating yourself by eating at one of these MOST EXPENSIVE RESTAURANTS IN AMERICA.
One thing that these restaurants don’t do that makes them so special? All the things that Web Watch looks for in a quality dining establishment, perfect for date night:
- They don’t have chairs/tables bolted to the floor
- They don’t have a drive-thru window
- They don’t serve free meals for kids with an adult meal purchase
Web Watch does love to travel, and when we do we try to be the best, most considerate traveler we can be.
It’s not always like that, however.
We often find ourselves trying to be extra-polite to cover for those miscreants we run across who just give tourists a bad name. They’re the ones who really ruin siteseeing for everyone.
Do we really need to have a gum-filled wall in Seattle?
Really? Well, it might be considered “art” there… but it’s certainly not considered “art” when seen in a queue line at the local amusement park, is it?
Nope, there it’s just tacky, tacky. Literally, in some places.
Web Watch has previously covered news regarding how one can tell that the economy is picking up based on the increase in underwear sales.
But isn’t it time to take a look at exactly what type of worldwide retail trends we should be looking at when it comes to our underwear purchases?
If you’re a recent college graduate (or about to be one), here’s something that you should know:
It’s a jungle out there, and getting a job right out of college is not as much of a guarantee as it used to be.
When hiring managers are combing through stacks and stacks of resumes looking for the ideal candidate to fill an open position, it often comes down to just a few things that can separate the You’re Hired pile from the Don’t Bother pile.
Celebrity Chefs are a unique entity, unlike any other profession.
Where fans can watch a professional sports event (football, golf, tennis), we know that we can never be as good as they are in their particular field of play. We’ll play those sports for fun, with the full realization that we would never be able to do anything even close to what those folks are able to pull off on a regular basis.
But celebrity chefs? They’re just cooking. We can cook, too.
It doesn’t take that much skill to grill a steak to perfection – Web Watch does this all the time, and our steaks come out absolutely fantastic.
Restaurant-quality, if we do say so ourselves.
Granted, we need to pay a little more for some higher-quality ingredients on occasion to really pull off some incredible meals, but that’s a choice that we consciously make. In any case, the average home cook does have the exact same tools available to them as the Celebrity Chef does, so in some ways it really is an even playing field here.
