Study: Facebook reduces well-being and satisfaction with life

How long have you been playing Candy Crush Saga?

Better question: have you been paying money to advance, or have you achieved as much as you have via free play?

Since Web Watch has told others about the joy (and frustration) that CANDY CRUSH can bring, we’ve been hearing stories from friends about them paying $1 after $1 in order to advance through. We have texts cursing us for sucking joy out of their lives, as our friends have become addicted to moving from level to level with this BEJEWELED clone.

And all we can say is, we couldn’t be happier.

Why? Because at least our friends are NO LONGER OBSESSED WITH FACEBOOK.

People would rather be fat than be bankrupt

Would you rather LOOK GOOD or have a GOOD LOOKING BANK ACCOUNT OR RETIREMENT PLAN?

For some people, as Billy Crystal used to say, they’d rather LOOK MAHVELOUS – because after all, it’s better to look good than feel good.

Are you a smoker?

Do you own a smartphone (such as an iPhone or an Android device)?

Then chances are – there’s a correlation between the two that you haven’t realized.

10 Things

This one thing causes 15% of all child emergency room visits

Going to the HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM is never a good time.

There’s no good food, the chairs are uncomfortable, there are germs everywhere… the hospital is not the place that you want to go to if you don’t already have a reason to be there.

So in the guise of helping parents, researchers at the NATIONWIDE CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL IN COLUMBUS, OHIO went through thousands of child emergency room records from 2001 to 2009 to see if there were any trends in PREVENTABLE EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS that could be discovered through the data.

The theory is that if parents were aware of why children were going to the emergency room, maybe they could be more aware of those situations and prevent them from occuring in the first place.

What your sleep habits say about you

How many hours of sleep do you need a night?

Some people religiously go to bed at 10pm and wake up at 5am, a good seven hours of sleep every night. They are also likely to have a decent breakfast and workout before heading off to be at the office before everyone else.

These go-getters tend to piss off everyone else around them, don’t they?

Strollers, car seats, and shopping carts are making your kids fat

Are your kids fat?

If you’re a normal, reasonable parent – chances are that you’re going to say, “no – my kids are not fat”. Perhaps they’re merely big-boned, or still are working off their baby fat.

Think we’re crazy for even asking? We don’t think so — One study published in the New York Times says that 10% of all children under 2 years old are overweight. That 12.4% of children between the ages of 2 and 5 years old are obese.

If your child is obese at the age of 5 years old — and if obesity doesn’t run in your family genetically at that age — then maybe, just maybe, there’s something in the manner you’re raising your child that is contributing to their lardness.

1 Comment on 7 Reasons Mosquitoes Love You

Every summer, you see it at the local Target or Wal-Mart: endcap after endcap of bug repellent and mosquito sprays.

OFF!, Cutter. Avon Skin-So-Soft. Wrist bands, citronella candles — there are tons of products that claim to repel mosquitos. Some do a fairly good job, others not as much. Then there’s the whole question of whether you should go DEET or DEET-FREE in your annoying bug management plan.

Why you shouldn’t keep your pet in your car

Do you drive your dog around each weekend?

Is your dog the kind that travels with its head out the window, sniffing as the world goes by? Or is your dog a bit more casual – sitting comfortably in the passenger seat and napping?

Or are you the kind of driver who insists on driving with your dog sitting in your lap (and possibly getting in the way of the airbag, should it be needed in an emergency situation)?
