How to gain more Twitter followers

Are you satisfied with the number of Twitter followers you have?

Have you thought that you should be more along the lines of Lady Gaga or Justin Bieber with the number of people that follow them in that social media circle?

Maybe it’s not what you’re saying on Twitter, but how you’re saying it.

Today’s Challenge: Survive on Minimum Wage for One Month

How long has it been since you were in college?

Remember how awesome it was to just head out to the university cafeteria and eat everything you wanted, just because you could?  Hey – it was like an unlimited Las Vegas buffet, but without the cover charge.  Unlimited pizza. Unlimited ice cream. Unlimited single-patty burgers (double-patty burgers only allowed on your first trip through the grill line).

Yeah, there’s a reason it’s called the Freshman 15, and it has nothing to do with the free beer you’re sucking down on weekends, either.

This website will guess your age

Have you been to a county fair recently?

If not – then rest assured that they still have the old-fashioned carnival barker there, offering to guess anything from your weight, to your zodiac sign, to your age — all for just a few dollars.  Don’t worry – if they get it wrong, they hand you a stuffed animal worth $0.25 to them.  It’s sheer profit, even if they lose every single transaction that they attempt.

How to have a one-night stand

Survey time:  raise your hand if you’ve NEVER HAD A ONE-NIGHT STAND.

Thought so – there aren’t a lot of you out there who’ve never gone that route at some point in your previous life.  Yes, even those single-night hookups with your best friend’s roommate’s cousin who you see every year as they drive across the country on vacation and needed a place to crash, counts.

Celebrate Diaper Free Week by Going Diaper Free!

Web Watch has talked about ELIMINATION COMMUNICATION earlier, a method used by parents to encourage their infants to equate specific sounds with going to the potty.

Pavlovian, you say?  Perhaps.  But parents who practice EC swear by it, and it saves them hundreds of dollars a year in disposable diaper costs.

What is the highest scoring Scrabble word?

Web Watch, as we’ve declared previously, loves playing board games with friends.

There’s something about sitting around a table and taking part in a group activity – laughing, drinking – that you just can’t get from the anonymous (and cheat-filled) ways of playing knock-off word games with friends via cellphone.

Is SCRABBLE the best game choice for game night?  Sometimes yes, sometimes not.  It partly depends on how many people are playing, and whether they enjoy playing word games with you.  If you’re the kind of person who TiVos the NATIONAL SPELLING BEE, then chances are you’re not the type of person that others will want to engage in a casual Scrabble game with.
