<p>Several experts chalk this traffic decline up to a host of variables--Google having to reassess the site, the fact that the company's head Jeffrey Braverman should have simply redirected nuts.com to its original nutsonline.com--but the immature among us know the real answer: The only people typing nuts.com into a computer are 13-year-old boys trying to impress their friends and piss off their parents.</p>
