What sandwich best defines your state?

Post author By web gangsta
Post date June 6, 2012

Everybody loves a good sandwich.

Just take two pieces of bread and slap some meat and a few condiments inside, and hoo-boy, you just know that’s good eatin’.

And as you travel around the country like Web Watch has, you’ll know that everywhere has a regional specialty that just defines it perfectly.

We recall one trip we took to Dallas where we found ourselves at a small cafeteria looking for lunch. On the menu, it said “steak sandwich”, which we thought sounded delightful.

To our chagrin, we received the local favorite “chicken-fried steak” sandwich, which is definitely not what we were expecting or had in mind.

How to find a bra that fits

All women seem to have this exact same problem. It’s universal:

HOW TO FIND A BRA THAT FITS?

Smart women will pay big bucks to the old ladies at the lingerie store (or bra department at the local department store) to get properly measured. Hey, every woman is different – not all bras are made to fit every boob that’s squished into that lace.

But not every manufacturer adheres to the same measurement scale and sizing guidelines.

Oh, sure – they pretend to do so. But women know that’s not really the case.

We all know that there’s a difference between being “naked” and being “nekkid”.

“Nekkid” is just more fun.

And if you’re looking for a fun way to get nekkid in your local area with a bunch of others (and a vegetable or two), read on for the nsfw details:

Patrick Murphy loves dogs… but hates dog poop

Post author By web gangsta
Post date May 31, 2012

Boulder, Colorado’s Patrick Murphy is a plant ecologist.

And like many of Boulder’s proud residents, Patrick is extremely environmentally conscious. Being a plant ecologist and wanting to be environmentally-friendly sort of go hand-in-hand – but throw in the Boulder mystique, and Patrick’s really got something.

A disclaimer: Web Watch loves Boulder. We have a number of friends who live there, and we enjoy every opportunity we get to spend some time out there.

But like Austin, Texas’ reputation, Boulder is a bit quirky.

And that’s okay. We like those folks anyway. And Patrick does bring up a vitally important point that pet lovers around the world should take notice of:

Here’s one way to tell if you’re being a douchebag online

Post author By web gangsta
Post date May 29, 2012

Face it – everyone can be a little bit of a douchebag once in a while.

It may not always be seen in public, but it can happen.

And it doesn’t really matter if you say “douche”, “douchebag”, “bouchedag” or some other variation. A douche is a douche, no matter what you call it.

Can YOU name the Top 100 Global Brands for 2012?

Post author By web gangsta
Post date May 28, 2012

Even if you’re one of those Occupy Wall Streeters, complaining about everything that Big Business is doing to Keep You Down, chances are you’re also a little bit brand conscious.

Aside from the fact that the OWS movement went to all the trouble of ensuring that they have a trademark on “OCCUPY WALL STREET”, those 99% really aren’t any different from the rest of us.

They’re wearing name-brand clothing, purchased at a name-brand retailer.

They’re marketing their protest with Apple and Google phones, using Facebook and Twitter over cellular networks or purloined free WiFi connections that are setup/maintained/paid for by other corporations.

A protest is fine, and bringing attention to companies’ misdeeds is powerful — but don’t complain about how all businesses are bad if you have to rely on them in order to handle your protest in the first place.

See, it really IS all about branding and marketing, isn’t it?

Advice for women who hate sports, but love their sports-loving men

Post author By web gangsta
Post date May 24, 2012

Web Watch is lucky that we love sports, and we surround ourselves with others who do as well. (Although, to be honest, if we hated sports we likely would surround ourselves with other like-minded sports haters. Funny how the world works, isn’t it?)

But we often hear about relationships that fail because HE likes to do things that are surrounding the College Football Game Of The Week, and SHE would rather not. On the other hand, we have plenty of friends whose relationships thrive as the couples share the thrills of victory and the agonies of defeat.

So what’s a woman to do when she absolutely, positively loves her man, but has 100% no interest whatsoever in the sports that he’s chosen to watch?

How fast can you read?

Post author By web gangsta
Post date May 22, 2012

Web Watch wouldn’t be able to cover as many websites as we do without being able to read quickly and comprehend what we’re poking our heads into.

Reading fast is one thing; knowing what we just read about is something else entirely.

But the question can come up as you outpace your friends and family in reading the BIG BANG THEORY VANITY CARDS before they’re off the screen as to exactly HOW FAST CAN YOU READ?
