Are you a hipster?
Do you live in some hip world full of other hip people? Constantly gazing off into the distance from your hipster pad while you listen to all that hipster post-modern music?
Do you have an ironic goatee?
Is being a hipster all it’s cracked up to be? Maybe YOU’RE AN UNHAPPY HIPSTER.
SURVIVOR is one of those shows, especially as it is about to enter its 20th season this month with an all-star HEROES VS VILLAINS theme, that Web Watch loves watching – if only because the show somehow always figures out how to be fresh, exciting, and surprising season after season.
Jeff Probst has even given all future contestants one vital hint on how to survive Survivor, and it all comes down to studying game theory, which Web Watch will cover in a future post.
One thing that Jeff didn’t feel the need to mention is that one key part of being on Survivor is that at some point during the game, you’re going to be naked.
Sure, the CBS censors may pixelate your NO NO ZONE, or the contestants may decide to show off their newly-buffed bodies in an attempt to increase their Survivor-provided 15-minutes of fame — but after 20 seasons (and approximately 300+ contestants), there was bound to be a glut of Survivor contestant nudity available at some point.
It was inevitable, really.

RUNNING FROM CAMERA is a funny original blog idea.
Muggezifter, the blog creator, had a great idea for original self-portraits.
He sets the camera down on a stable surface (or has a friend/stranger hold the camera), sets the self-timer for 2 seconds, and then runs away from the camera as fast as possible.
Yup, can’t be any simpler than that.
Certainly makes those staged posed photos on your next vacation seem a bit old-fashioned, doesn’t it?
Web Watch has long held the belief that one of the worst jobs one could have would be the editor of a fishing show:
“nothing…. nothing…. nothing…. wait, what’s that? Oh, never mind. Nothing… nothing… nothing…”
Yes, we stole that joke from someone, but the sentiment remains the same. Not all cool-sounding jobs are all they’re cracked up to be.
Some jobs really do suck. And Mike Rowe and his DIRTY JOBS team has done a great job of showcasing some of those jobs and the people who are proud to do what other folks refuse to try. But he may have missed one or two jobs along the way.

Web Watch openly admits that we grew up with the eight-color box of Crayola crayons.
We don’t know the difference between cyan, sky blue, light blue, purple, blueberry, navy blue, royal blue, denim, or burnt sienna colors.
To us, those all qualify as “blue”, and since they’re all the same color they all should match appropriately to each other. Besides, “jeans” go with everything, right? Right.
And because of our keen fashion sense, Web Watch knows that we can comfortably sit back and mock other people’s fashion choices of their own.
Because Web Watch would never stoop so low as to participate in any of the EIGHT FASHION TRENDS THAT MEN FOLLOW THAT WOMEN HATE.

January 23rd, as everyone knows, is NATIONAL PIE DAY.
And there are all sorts of ways for you to celebrate National Pie Day, including the obvious – such as “bake a pie” or “bring a pie to work”, and the not-so-obvious “have a pie fight” or “pass along pie memories” (whatever that means).
Even restaurants that are self-proclaimed “famous for their pies” have taken to promoting the need to CELEBRATE PIE.

Web Watch hasn’t had a NSFW entry in a while, so we thought we’d throw one in today just because we can.
Have you ever wondered about how much our body parts play into our senses (besides the obvious “smell” and “taste”, of course)? LOOK, TOUCH, and LISTEN are three parts of an art project called FLESHMAP done by Fernanda Viegas and Martin Wattenberg.
In each of these three studies, FLESHMAP highlights how and where our bodies are mentioned in song, how they look in abstract, and how we feel when we touch each other — all in unique graphical displays.
A friend of ours is a comedy writer.
He always says that writing jokes isn’t easy. We keep telling him that he would have more free time if scientists would invent a robot that could write jokes.
He insisted that there was no way a machine could write something that was as funny as what a person could write. Web Watch tried not to point out how horrible some so-called sitcoms are, or how repetitive certain late-night talk show host monologues have become.
And then along comes the JOKE WRITING COMPUTER.
