Some people have way too much time on their hands, but sometimes I’m glad when these people are able to do awesome things like figuring out the optimal pack efficiently of urinal traffic.

“And, of course, if you want to make things really awkward, I suggest printing out this article and trying to explain it to the guy peeing next to you.”

Just got this in my email… good lessons:

“When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 Beers. A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.

He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The Urban Dictionary defines a cougar as “An older woman who frequents clubs in order to score with a much younger man.” I define them as damn tasty and now I can join a club of men who feel the same way. The Boston Cougar Club (thanks UrbanDaddy) is a group of men who hunt MILFs in Boston. The next hunt, according to UrbanDaddy.com will by July 16th at Abe & Louie’s. How could you not be at least a little curious about the people that would show up for this?!

From Esquire: "Everyone seems to complain that they either last way too long in bed or not nearly long enough. But what's actually normal? What should we be shooting for?"

3-7 minutes!? I can't even make it through a drive through that quickly.

Note: The article contains some mildly NSFW naked cartoon ladies.

From Uncrate: "Really, really, really love beer? Then book yourself a spot for the Samuel Adams Hopfenpflücken Adventure ($2,980 and up). Put together by travel experts Abercrombie and Kent, this once-in-a-lifetime trip..."

I think the word "Hopfenpflucken" is the coolest swear word ever invented.

I had no idea you could buy DNA paternity tests over the counter at your local drug store until I saw an ad on a bus yesterday despite the fact that they’ve been available since 2007. How great is this world that we live in that you can now buy contraception, morning after pills and paternitiy tests all in the same place!?

From Uncrate: "Ever wish you could just bathe yourself in your favorite lager? Well, this is sorta like that. Beer Soap ($5; $20/5-pack) is fine soap made using 100% beer as the..."

Finally, washing yourself in beer doesn't necessarily mean you're an alcoholic.

From TechCrunch: "The Trunk Club gives men their own personal shopper via Skype video sessions who try to figure out what kind of clothes they wear, what is lacking in their wardrobe, and what kind of clothes they might be willing to try."

I'm not sure who they're targeting with this service... men who like to wear nice clothes (like what's pimped by Trunk Club) probably like to shop and wouldn't need this service. I think I'll start the Chump Club and just send people cheap jeans and polos of various colors and call it a day.

From BBC News: "Men really do have an excuse for being wimpy about coughs and colds - their immune systems are not as strong as those of women."

...and we're giant babies.

From Scientific American: “If you’ve ever had a good, long look at the human phallus, whether yours or someone else’s, you’ve probably scratched your head over such a peculiarly shaped device… You may be surprised to discover just how highly specialized a tool it is. Furthermore, you’d be amazed at what its appearance can tell us about the nature of our sexuality.” (via Fimoculous.com)

This was just too damn interesting to pass up…
