the results are in!

there are 3 stalls in a bathroom numbered 1, 2, 3 starting with the one closest to the door/sinks - if all are unoccupied, which do you use?

the RESULTS:

stall 1 --> 1 vote (16%)
stall 2 --> 3 votes (50%)
stall 3 --> 2 votes (33%)

hmm... isn't that intersting? why the second stall?

i once heard on the television or radio or something that the first stall is always the cleanest one because hardly anyone uses it. people tend to like to go further into the bathroom for privacy.

toilet tomfoolery

i've added a new poll to the bottom of the page...
go check it out and add your input!
it's a totally serious question, i swear. never mind that the title of this post is "toilet tomfoolery"... go look at the poll. serious. it's about politics or something like that. your mind will totally be engaged.

the poll closed october 21

survey says...

farewell dots!
the old dots scheme is out and the new, sleek black one is in.

according to my little poll, a whopping 86% liked the new look of the blog! there was only 1 dissenter in the ranks... who was it? fess up! did you just vote that way to be contrary or do you genuinely dislike the new look?

othe news to report - this poll had the biggest response ever! woohoo - 8! e-i-g-h-t eight people! i'm being sarcastic but aren't i entitled to do that on my own blog? i'm going to go ahead and admit that 3 of those people were me but i don't care. 5-1 is still a victory for the new blog look!

every vote counts!

my sister has entered a picture of her chinchilla in a funny pet contest... you should all help her out and vote for little darwin!

there are like 10 billion photos but the one you're looking for is this one:

it should be on the first page - you can scroll through the pictures along the bottom. the photo title is "Greedy Little Chinchilla"

so VOTE NOW

gawd... i know lots of people love their dogs and cats but LOTS of people love them... there are so many dog & cat pictures! so boring! when most people think of pets, all they think of are cats and dogs! there are so many much more interesting pets out there!

you know what's really god-damned annoying? when people call themselves mommy & daddy in reference to their pets. like dog's with "mommy's little angel" sweaters... it's freaking unhealthy.

packing the inches

so it's valentine's day... possibly THE most feared occassion all year... so i'm here to share an amusing tidbit with you to lessen the stress of finding the perfect gift or to distract you from the fact that you're alone... you know i do it because i care...

anyway, according to a british study a whopping 47% of men surveyed would trade sex for a 50" plasma tv! that is, they'd be willing to give up sex for 6 months to have this television!

here are some other things people would give up sex for:
~ chocolate
~ a better golf swing (really?!? would would reather golf than get some??)
~ $1 million
~ a new wardrobe
~ another bite of that delicious steak sub... (this one can't be real, can it?)
~ the chance to live to 100 (i still maintain that i don't want to live that long - i'd get bored!)
~ a good night's sleep (have sex right before you sleep and you'll have NO problem sleeping...)
~ a date with brad pitt (is it just me or is brad pitt turning into robert redford?? and who really wants a date with robert redford? i mean maybe back in the day... but nowadays... i'm just saying.)

so people, what say you? would you give up sex for a 50" plasma???
you can go ahead and vote a waaaaaay down at the bottom of the page... but be quick, the pool closes FEBRUARY 20th at noon! stand up and be counted!

penny for your thoughts?

that phrase could soon be a thing of the past...
according to a recent survey, canadians--particularly retailers--have said they'd like to see the demise of our little copper friend.
63% of small retailers want the penny gone and only 19% wanted it to hang around... customers were more evenly split on the matter - 42% say oh no it must go! while 33% still enjoyed that jangle in their change pockets.

the survey was good to point out that there are downsides to pocketing the penny for good... on the retailer side there are concerns about limited pricing options and tax implications while customers fear that this will give retailers to push prices higher by rounding up rather than down.

add your two cents... vote on the penny poll at the bottom of the main page!

the stupid awards - you decide!
