Nude Beach Etiquette as you visit the Best Nude Beaches in the World

Post author By web gangsta
Post date November 22, 2010

The only piece of nude beach etiquette Web Watch has known was from a joke we remember some comedian said.

In essence, it had to do with the very good advice regarding being sure to apply sunscreen liberally to places that may need a little extra protection. The punchline was when the guy at the beach had a hand full of sunscreen lotion, looked down at his junk… and realized that maybe he hadn’t quite thought through the sunscreen application process enough.

The lesson is not to ignore the importance of sunscreen, but that perhaps the sunscreen in a spray may have been a better choice.

If you decide to visit a nude beach for the first time, you will want to consider your lotion options, as well as these other TIPS FOR VISTING A NUDE BEACH:

Remember that Seinfeld episode about there being “no such thing as good-looking naked crouching”. Yeah, don’t do that.
No staring… but if you are going to, get a good pair of sunglasses and pretend to read a book or magazine.
No photos.
The George Costanze “shrinkage” episode. You know the one.

Budgie Smugglers

On any of your last vacations or business trips, have you ever smuggled anything into a movie theater, concert venue, or past the TSA security onto an airplane?

We’re not talking about anything illegal, of course. Something like a sealed bottle of water or a bag of candy purchased elsewhere. Nothing inherently dangerous, but just against the general rules of what’s allowed and what’s not.

And the usual method you employ to smuggle those items is usually what? Put them into a bag and hope nobody’s looking? Generally this will work…. but check out these WEIRDEST ITEMS SMUGGLED ONTO AN AIRPLANE to see if you would have the same guts to smuggle things in your pants:

Haunted House Halloween Handbook

Web Watch loves Halloween – more for the experience of visiting what could be used as a local movie set at elaborate haunted house attractions rather than the handing out of candy to neighborhood brats. Because those creative individuals who spend all year working on an immersive Halloween experience really deserve kudos for the effort they put into spending a month scaring the hell out of all their guests. One question that Web Watch wanted to figure out the answer to was HOW MUCH MONEY DO HAUNTED HOUSE ATTRACTIONS MAKE EACH YEAR? Is it a profitable business? Using some rough math, Web Watch can guess that the following is a reasonable estimate on haunted house earnings:

Video Fun: Travelogue Parodies of PURE MICHIGAN tourism campaign

Post author By web gangsta
Post date August 6, 2010

Video and filmmaker John Kerfoot knows funny when he sees it.

And when John first saw the PURE MICHIGAN ads that were put together to promote travel throughout the lovely state of Michigan (as voiced by Tim Allen), it was just a matter of time before John was able to put his own spoof videos together.

NOT SO PURE MICHIGAN is a collection of those parody spots, highlighting… or low-lighting, if you will… some of the not-so-pleasant sides of visiting Michigan’s tourist destinations.

The Fattest Man in America

Deep-fried Oreo cookies and deep-fried Twinkies are not just a delight to be had at state fairs across the South.

No, unusual deep-fried foods have become a tasty treat that has spread – literally and figuratively – across the country like a delicious fungus, to be treasured. (Mushrooms, by the way, are also a tasty fungus. See how clever we are? No? Oh well, moving on…)

HEALTH.COM has decided to embrace the fact that sometimes people want to eat food that tastes good, regardless of whether those foods are actually good for you or not. So they went out and compiled this list of THE FATTEST FOODS IN THE COUNTRY, one menu item for each of the 50 states.

No, we’re not passing judgement on anyone who wants to eat these meals. Web Watch will be one of the first to join in with you, just to be able to say that we did it. The question that we pose to you, our faithful Web Watch family – who will be the first amongst us to claim the FATTY 50 VICTORY – eating one of each of the following fat-filled items first?

Remember, photos – or it didn’t happen. So step to it, Web Watch readers! Hit the road, and chow down on one of these fifty phenomenally fatty foods:
