Typing on your iPhone: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
I wouldn't say my fingers are abnormally large (see photo right), but whenever I try to type on my iPhone, I can't help but make mistakes—unlike on my Pearl which I can type messages on with one hand no problem. Well a recent study has shown that iPhone users make significantly more texting errors than other cell phone users, although managing to type at the same speed. Even though iPhone users have an entire keyboard which display on their screens, they still manage to make more mistakes — I can definitely vouch for this!

Bruce Willis vs. Tracy Morgan — Who's More Your Type?
These two aren't known for playing romantic leads — and their new movie is packed with lame poop jokes — but Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan do represent two very different types of men. In one corner you got Bruce, the prototypical tough guy who may attract women with his confident attitude. In corner number two you have goofy funnyman Tracy, who apparently wins women over with his hair (which can also impregnate them).
The 4 Types of Humor
Ancient Greeks saw humor as inherently aggressive, but ask anyone today what they look for in a date, and sense of humor will likely rank high. At least if they have one! But one person's joke is another person's rant, so it's fair to say all humor is not the same.
