64% of Americans spend more time with their PCs than their significant others¹
I read this as more time ON their PC and was like "Well, sure, even the brand-new stages of a relationship, I don't spend that much time ON my gf!"). Um.
I'm fairly certain I said no interruptions.

48% would rather help a friend move than help a friend with a computer problem
Moving is usually a one-time thing. Computer problems go on forever. Also, moving is less likely to put you in the position of thinking "Do you have the IQ of a gnat? Have you been living in a cave since '95?"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
French 'Vogue': Devil Worship Is The New Black!
When we saw the September issue of French Vogue on stands, we knew it was going to be good. Good as in completely and ridiculously over the top. Seriously. Check out the ensemble on the cover. Even the logo is animal print. Anna Wintour has never known that kind of wild (heh) abandon. And then, inside, we found the "Sacrément Inspirée" fashion shoot photographed by Terry Richardson and "realized" by editor in chief Carine Roitfeld. The theme? Voodoo/wicca/satanism! After the jump, a few of the images. Find out what to wear... if you're the guest of honor at a Salem witch trial.

It's not creepy that she is standing in a pentagram in the woods. It's creepy that her extremely long-rise pants have hands.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I tend to be on my laptop to enable more time with my SO. So how does that factor in? I am not enough a fan to watch baseball games on their own, but paying 50% attention while I cruise the net is perfect, and my SO gets company while he does one of his favorite things.
