Remember back in April when Web Watch told you about the class that ATTEMPTED TO FOLD A SINGLE PIECE OF PAPER ONTO ITSELF 13 TIMES in order to set a new World Record… and failed?
Well, Web Watch has an update for you on this.

Who doesn’t like a little sour candy once in a while?
We know one person who absolutely hates and loves all types of sour candies: your local dentist. They love the candy because candy of all sorts eventually leads to cavities and more patients. They hate the sour candies because of what they do to tooth enamel, simply as a matter of the high levels of acidity required to give you that mouth-puckering sour taste.
Web Watch has a friend who regularly jokes that he has a lack of adequate tooth enamel because of something his mother did (or didn’t do) while he was growing in the womb. While there might be some truth to that, he should also take into account the types of candy that he chooses to eat.
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.
The Effortless Sleep Method:
The Incredible New Cure for Insomnia and Chronic Sleep Problems
Have you been sleeping soundly at night?
Web Watch knows that some people can’t sleep due to work stress, poor health, bad pillow choices, or other reasons that could be reasonably solved through outside means (given enough time, of course – go with the concept here).
However, a study by a sleep specialist at the University of Surrey says that the real problem with people having trouble sleeping is not necessarily any of those outside influences
Do you know what’s in YOUR jar of honey that’s in your pantry?
Chances are, you just went to the store and purchased whatever honey was on the shelf and brought it home, without bothering to worry about what is actually in that cute plastic bear squeeze bottle.
And since honey is one food that doesn’t spoil, chances are that you’ve had that same jar of honey for a few years — and doesn’t it look just as crystal clear now as it did when you first purchased it?
Ladies? Web Watch has a question for you:
When you see a semi-clothed or naked man, do they seem competent to you?
Probably not, as it goes back to the old Jerry Seinfeld comment of, “naked crouching never looks good.”
Don’t feel bad about your perception of other people’s nakedness — you’re not alone.
You know all those stories about college girls gaining weight in their first year of school? The dreaded “Freshman 15”?
Yeah, it’s a total lie.
That’s right — freshmen do NOT gain 15 extra pounds when they’re away at college due to the awesomeness of the college cafeteria meal plan.
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.
