RUNNING FROM CAMERA is a funny original blog idea.
Muggezifter, the blog creator, had a great idea for original self-portraits.
He sets the camera down on a stable surface (or has a friend/stranger hold the camera), sets the self-timer for 2 seconds, and then runs away from the camera as fast as possible.
Yup, can’t be any simpler than that.
Certainly makes those staged posed photos on your next vacation seem a bit old-fashioned, doesn’t it?
Lauren Leto has written about many things, and even has one of those blog-to-book deals that Web Watch is fond of pointing out every occasionally — so when it comes to books and their authors, and what that all means to us, the reader – Web Watch believes that Lauren knows what she is talking about.
Which is why Web Watch would like to point you to a recent posting Lauren made entitled READERS BY AUTHOR, a look at what proclaiming who your favorite author is says about you. And after reading the list, Web Watch can confidentally say that Lauren speaks the truth.

Web Watch openly admits that we grew up with the eight-color box of Crayola crayons.
We don’t know the difference between cyan, sky blue, light blue, purple, blueberry, navy blue, royal blue, denim, or burnt sienna colors.
To us, those all qualify as “blue”, and since they’re all the same color they all should match appropriately to each other. Besides, “jeans” go with everything, right? Right.
And because of our keen fashion sense, Web Watch knows that we can comfortably sit back and mock other people’s fashion choices of their own.
Because Web Watch would never stoop so low as to participate in any of the EIGHT FASHION TRENDS THAT MEN FOLLOW THAT WOMEN HATE.

Have you ever had one of those days when something major happens in your life and you come to the sudden realization of OMG – I’M THE ADULT?
Like when you’re in a car accident with a teenage driver and somebody has to remember to take pictures, write down insurance info, and call the cops?
Or when you’re at the mall and you see a young man without a belt on, and his sagging pants are dropped so low that his junk is flapping around for the world to see, and you feel that the only responsible thing to do is to pull the lad aside and tell him that his junk is showing.
Web Watch would like to introduce Web Watch readers to Josh Richman and Anish Sheth, MD, who collectively are known as DR STOOL. (Web Watch will refrain from making any jokes about the two authors meeting while at Brown University, even if it is true.)
Josh and Anish have taken a practical approach to answering all manner of poo-related questions and have released a book entitled WHAT’S YOUR POO TELLING YOU? and a companion piece WHAT’S MY PEE TELLING ME?.

Some would say that if you’re one of those people who feel the need to have a tattoo on your arm, neck, lower back, calf, or other seen (or unseen) body part that is not in your native language, then you deserve what you get.
You might have asked for your initials to be displayed in Kanji, but you may end up with something entirely different and not necessarily something that you would like to have.
For those of you who like sending electronic greeting cards instead of either (a) driving to the local card shop and buying a card off the rack, addressing the envelope, and mailing it; or (b) calling the person you would send a card to and have an actual conversation with them — then Web Watch has just the site for you.

HAVE A SLOGAN is one of those funny widget-driven sites that follow in the footsteps of many a “why didn’t we think of this sooner” item.
You know that game you play in the bar where you take any common marketing phrase or famous quote and see how much funnier it can be if you were substitute one key word with “fart” or “underpants”? Let’s try it, shall we?
(Why underpants? Because a clown once told me – seriously – that there is nothing funnier to a 5-year-old child than the word “underpants”. There’s a reason why Captain Underpants is so popular with the kiddies. But we digress…)
