A recent Mozilla Test Pilot study has shone light on an uncomfortable truth: people are using their lunch breaks to masturbate.
Entitled "Understanding Private Browsing," the findings are remarkably clear; there are four very well-defined peaks in our Private Browsing habits, and most of our Private Browsing "sessions" are around 10 minutes long. Those four peaks are lunch break, after work/school, after dinner, and late at night.
But how did I get to the rather sticky conclusion of people masturbating in their lunch hour? Well, why else would people use Private Browsing Mode for just 10 minutes? Surely checking Facebook, Twitter, and email takes longer than 10 minutes. I mean, I want to believe that people only spend 10 minutes on their computer during lunch, but really, let's face it, ... that can't be the case.
The other factor that hasn't been addressed by Mozilla (or Mashable in their diagnosis), is that we must consider who opted into this Test Pilot study. I would guess that most Test Pilot users are bearded geeky types, academics, and students. I don't think there will be many Test Pilot users that work in secluded office cubicles. Mind you, university lecturers usually have their own offices, right ...? Ew...
Having said that, the idea of millions of Firefox users shutting their office doors at lunch break for a quick 10-minute stress reliever is completely disgusting. If anyone has another possible hypothesis about what people are doing with that 10 minute window, please let me know.
