From an AskReddit thread: “What is something people to do be polite but actually turns out to be annoying?” Here are some of the answers:
– Opening candy slowly in a movie theater – crinkle crinkle crinkle …
– Not taking their turn at a stop sign, and screwing up everyone else.
– There’s a machine near my desk at work that beeps. It really doesn’t bother me though. What bothers me is everyone who thinks that I must think its really annoying and wants to commiserate with me about it.
– Holding a door open for you when you’re 20 feet away, and you then feel like you have to run to the door so they can get on with their life.
– When my guests try to help do the dishes.
– In a group when someone tells you,”You sure are being quiet!”

It’s pretty much unheard of for couples to switch their sides of the bed.  If you wound up sleeping on the right when you were dating, you’ll probably stay there until the day you die.

A new survey found a bunch of stats on sleeping positions.  Check ’em out . . . Read More »

You know how dogs say “what’s up” by sniffing each other’s butts?  We actually do the same thing . . . except no butt sniffing.

A new study out of Israel found a lot of us smell our hands after a handshake.  We don’t do it on purpose . . . and don’t even realize it’s happening.

But the researchers found that after a handshake, we really linger the next time our hand is up near our face . . . we keep it there for twice as long as we normally would, so we can take in a nice, big sniff.

According to the study, quote, “It’s well known that germs can be passed through skin contact in handshakes, but we’ve shown that potential chemical messages can be passed on in the same manner.”

So what are we hoping to smell?  It could be anything from whether the other person’s pheromones are compatible with ours, to whether there’s a hint they’re carrying a disease.

Here ya go… the best ( clean ) ones we could find!

Should there be a law that says you can only get divorced a certain number of times?  Well, almost half of Americans say YES.

According to a new poll, 43% of us think we should limit the number of times people can get divorced.  It didn’t ask what the limit should be.

But it did ask when it’s okay to leave someone without trying to work things out first.  66% of people said it’s okay if there’s abuse going on, and 50% said it’s okay if the other person is struggling with drugs or alcohol.

But for everything else . . . including cheating, gambling addiction, and religious differences . . . the majority of Americans say you should try to work things out before divorce becomes an option.

My question is should we limit the number of times you can get married?

There’s nothing like sitting at your desk when the smell of a coworker’s tuna starts wafting through the office like a poisonous gas.  And you almost wish it was poisonous and would kill you . . . just to get you away from the smell.

The people at “Huffington Post” ranked the nine most offensive smelling foods you can eat at the office.  See if you agree with their picks . . .

1.  Fish you reheat in the shared office microwave.

2.  Hot dogs.  They mean cheap hot dogs that smell up the place . . . not delicious hot dogs on a grill.

3.  Any other kind of fish.

4.  Kimchi.

5.  Hard-boiled eggs.

6.  Raw onions.

7.  Reheated Chinese.

8.  Fast food.

9.  Popcorn.

TruMoo is selling a mint-and-vanilla-flavored green milk for St. Patrick’s Day.  Other dairies have sold green milk before, but they’ve always been regional . . . this is the first one to go nationwide.

Not sure if I can stomach green milk… Heres a pic. Read More »

There’s a new wearable device that tells you when you need to go number 2.  I know what you’re thinking:  Do we really need wearable devices for every single thing?  But stay with me.

A company in California created a device called “D Free” . . . it attaches to your stomach, and tracks what’s going on in your intestines.

Basically it learns your pooping habits, and monitors the rumblings in your intestines to figure out when your bowels are moving.  Then it sends a warning to your phone ten minutes before you have to go.

That might not sound like a great reason to add yet another wearable device to your arsenal . . . but it’s not really made for you.  It’s for people with medical conditions who have a lot of “accidents” . . . or disabled people who need help when it’s time to hit the toilet.

Still, it would be nice for anyone to have a warning, so you’re not caught off-guard.  Then you can make sure you have a clear shot at a clean, private bathroom.

D Free should hit crowdfunding sites in a few months, and ship before the end of the year.  It’ll cost around $200.  We’re not sure what the name stands for.

Love it when by things happen to bad people!

Whether you saw “The Dress” as blue and black or white and gold, odds are you posted about it on Facebook.  They crunched the numbers on all of Thursday night’s posts about the dress, and here’s what they found . . .

58% of people saw it as white and gold, 42% saw it as blue and black.

Men were about 6% more likely to see it as blue and black.

The younger you are, the more likely you are to see it as blue and black.

And people looking at the photo on a computer were more likely to see it as blue and black . . . people on cell phones were more likely to see white and gold.
