Ever look at your bank account statement (or ATM balance) and wonder where all your money went?
Look around your house, and all you see is generic stuff that you really could live without?
Contemplate why you bother with that $5 daily coffee break when the free coffee in the office really isn’t that bad?
Bosses: are you looking for what type of corporate holiday gifts you should be handing out to your employees at the end of the year?
It can be tough to choose – many organizations have extremely strict limits on how much of monetary value an individual can receive as a gift. Web Watch knows of one company that gave each employee a $50 gift card last year… along with the appropriate paperwork so the proper taxable amount was reported to the IRS.
Yup, it was the classic “here’s a gift, and don’t forget to pay taxes on it” scam that’s all the rage these days.
How many people listen to the radio?
If you were to pay attention to technology pundits and the general news media, you would come away with the conclusion of, “well, practically nobody”. According to them, all those people who used to be radio listeners are bypassing that “old” technology for new offerings that the Internet has brought to bear, such as Pandora and Spotify.

Not so much… but we know some folks who do care, so we’re not going to make fun of them for this.
Hopefully by now, you’ve heard the story about Caine Monroy and the arcade he made in his dad’s shop, where all the games were made entirely out of cardboard.
No? It’s a phenomenal story. Here – watch this, then continue…
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.
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”.
