Guilty Pleasures

What are yours? Some of mine:

The Backstreet Boys - For them, I would even go to Burger King to buy CD’s!

QVC - I watch all the time but have never purchased anything.

William Shatner - I can’t explain the hold this man has over me.

Watching golf on TV - It’s so relaxing and even entertaining sometimes!

Audrey Hepburn: Wasn’t she THE sweetest?

The Smile Of A Pretty Girl: sigh

Tim Tams: you poor Americans don’t know what you’re missing out on.

SClub7: Yes, a bubblegum group, but their music just makes me happy. Go figure.

Going to the cricket with my mates: if you have to ask why you’ll probably never understand.

Singing ‘Hit me Baby One More Time’ at the top of my voice while doing the dishes…that’s not just guilty, it’s a felony.

leering at British girls … mmm …

You’ve never purchased anything? Wow. I can’t resist the things they have on there sometimes. I’ve lost track of how much I’ve spent on QVC. Right now, I’m staring at my very nice Bushnell® telescope. I love QVC.

Pop music. (Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, *NSYNC, and so on. Don’t hate me!)

I’m too ashamed to admit anything else.

Icee. Any flavor.

[whispering] you’re supposed to stare THROUGH a telescope, not AT it. [/whispering]

I watch the Animaniacs, even when no kids are around.
Jackie Chan movies.
When a Dixie Chicks song comes on, I don’t change the station.

Cartoon Network, except Scooby Doo.
TV Land.
And a bowl of Chef Boy-Ar-Dee Ravioli.
And a glass of Kool-Aid (grape, preferably).
And a big fluffy pillow so I can lie on the floor and watch TV and eat lunch.

Pizza Hut Lunch Buffets/Shakey’s Buncha Lunch

…man, I can be such a pig…

errrrrpppp!!!

The Animaniacs are a guilty pleasure?? I watch them whenever I can and I don’t even have kids…

sigh

adds Watching Animaniacs to his list
Tim Tams? Imagine a long chocolate biscuit. Imagine a second one. Put a layer of chocolate icing between them to form a sandwich of sorts. Cover it all in chocolate. And you have heaven.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

chocolate…

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

:meditates self into chocolate nirvana:

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

:mental note to self - 1) find Tim Tams; 2) thank dpr.:

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Dpr, will you please send me a box? Please oh please? I’ll send you some, um, something. What do we have in the US that’s good? I dunno. It’s probably all exported anyway. Stupid country. Oh, well, shipping a box of cookies to the other side of the world is probably a ridiculous idea anyway.

My guilty pleasure is silly fantasy novels. They have no redeeming value, and yet I keep reading them.

I’ll send some if you like though you may find it easier to order yourself. There’s a few places in the US that import them. I found: http://www.aussiecatalog.com/indexa.htm with little effort.

The good news? They have tim tams for sale.

The bad news? They’re damn expensive!! On this site they’re asking $3.60US a pack!!! Highway robbery! Last night I bought a packet for AU$2.50 which converts to about 10cUS (OK I went for a cheap laugh - it’s really about US$1.30 atm).

Maybe I should send them myself…

The bad news Part II? They only have the original flavour. No double choc. No caramel. No chewy caramel. No Moccha choc.

The Game Show Network.

I used to work in a nursing home, and we had it playing a lot of the time, because the residents liked it. I’d often find myself watching it when I had nothing else to do, instead of doing something constructive, like cleaning.

Romance novels. Even the really bad ones.

Wham! Especially “Wake Me Up Before You Go Go”

Bourbon & coke
T.V. Land, Cartoon Network, Game Show Channel, old commercials- in fact, anything retro.
Listening to the neighbors fight through the window.
Listening to the neighbors phone conversations on the scanner.
Valley Girl, My Chauffer, (any Deborah Foreman movie)
Cheap beer(Kingsburry, Red,White,& Blue etc.)
Straight Dope Message Board

My guilty pleasure is watching idiotic Japanese TV shows for hours at a time. They’re lowbrow, usually loud, sometimes violent and almost always degrading to women. I can’t seem to get enough!

More from me…

Brady Bunch reruns
Game Show Network
Full House reruns (I’m sooo ashamed!!)
TRL, Say What? Karaoke, and all that is MTV

I think I’ll just break my television now…

I can’t get enough Beverly Hills 90210; and I’m an otherwise not-abnormal young man.

Randy Quaid. I don’t know how or why this happened but there it is. Every time a movie comes on with him in it (which on my cable system is apparently 24 hrs a day) I can’t help myself. Maybe it’s that he’s tall and has a Southern accent. Maybe it’s the way he says ‘Bingo’. Maybe it’s the supertight pants he wears in the Vacation movies. Whatever, I’m just going to have to face it.
(standing)
My name is Lisa and I’d like to have sex with Randy Quaid
