I Can Has Interwebz

In an effort to better understand how each site pulls attention and focus away from more significant and meaningful pursuits (such as participating in international scavenger hunts or feeding your fish), Gishwhesian researchers chose one of the top timewasting sites through which to expose their subjects: I Can Has Cheezburger.

What is most significant is that without fail, the productivity of each subject took what is colloquially known as "a nosedive" as the exposure time lengthened.

There is hope, however, as the interruption of exposure by basic needs such as food and waste disposal did result in a brief return of productivity, although it was immediately reversed on resumption of site viewage. If it is possible to harness these natural breaks, the Gishwhesian Research Institute may be able to combat the significant damage the internet is doing to our lives and minds.
