FOX’s TV show NEW GIRL has become one of this season’s more entertaining programs.
While it started slow, with an unnecessary emphasis on the adorkable Zooey Deschanel, it has grown into itself as the audience (and show writers) have gotten to know all the other characters that inhabit Jess’ 30-year-old life.
One recent episode had Jess wondering how to describe what she saw, when she saw one of her roommates’ friends urinating in their shared, co-ed bathroom.

A few years ago, Web Watch was visiting Las Vegas with some friends. As is the case when traveling with a large group of people – especially in Vegas – we all found ourselves staying in different hotels.
And as is the case with different Las Vegas hotels, cleanliness standards can be a bit different from hotel to hotel, company to company.
So while Web Watch was enjoying our crisp, clean sheets, one member of our brigade found herself being transferred from one dirty hotel room to another until she ultimately asked to be checked into a different hotel across the way.
Apparently, maid service doesn’t always check to clear the room of used.. (ahem) … from underneath the bed.

Talking on the Phone While Sitting on the Toilet
Show of hands — how many of you have used your cell phone while using the bathroom?
Web Watch has one friend who does most of their best talking while sitting… although they are polite enough to not flush while the call is going on (we hope that they are only being that courteous while at home rather than being THAT person at the office who doesn’t flush).
Women, we can understand — they’re used to having full-blown conversations with the other gaggle of women who go to the bathroom en masse. So picking up the phone to take care of business while they’re actually Taking Care of Business is not a surprise. But men have that unwritten rule about no talking in the restroom, so when some D-Bag come barrelling in, yammering away on their Bluetooth headset as if they’re More Important Than Everyone Else kinda ruins the silent sanctity of the Men’s Room.

Web Watch told you about Dr Stool a few years ago, where you can get all your poop questions that you never knew you had answered.
And if Dr Stool wasn’t enough, you could always head over to SMELLY POOP, an educational website that that answers the question, “What other colors of poop are possible?”
And according to them, you can get red, white, brown, yellow… even blue poop! Yup, you really are what you eat, and any good physician will tell you that all they need to really diagnose any health issue that you may have it to analyze a stool sample.

GROOMING AND ETIQUETTE FOR CORPORATE MEN AND WOMEN:
How to Dress Properly
We all know that proper grooming is important to succeed in the workplace.
Web Watch knows a few men with (shall we say…) less than admirable shower and clothes-washing habits.
One situation arose where a co-worker had to be taken aside and be told explicitly to go home and shower. It was an uncomfortable conversation, but it had to be done. You could smell him coming from down the hall. Web Watch shudders just remembering the stench, it was that bad.

Howie Mandel may have something with his “fist bump” mentality. Touching other people can be freaky, especially if you don’t know where they (or their hands) have been.
Web Watch knows quite a few people who still refuse to wash their hands after using the restroom, sad but true. And we certainly hate being introduced to someone immediately after they obviously return from the restroom, as that initial slightly damp didn’t-quite-finish-drying-my-hands handshake is always a bit icky. We cringe now even thinking about it.

Show of hands: how many of you read while sitting on the toilet?
Yeah, we thought so — reading (or using your smartphone or iPad) while dropping the kids off at the pool has become a habit by almost everyone. Web Watch cringes at those who take their office paperwork with them to the bathroom stall before a meeting, knowing that the next stapled handout we receive may be covered in fecal matter.
Yeah, not a pretty image to think about, is it? But you’re going to think about it next time you see your boss head to the bathroom before your next staff meeting, aren’t you? Yeah, we thought so.

How much water can a waterless urinal save a home or organization?
Well, it mostly depends on how many times it ends up being flushed.
