Can You Confess Your Guilty Pleasures?

[Folio]

My guilty pleasure? Steven Segal movies.

I bought one and haven't watched it. But if Steven does his Aikido moves in the movie, I have to see it.

Also: "You see this face?" |-( "This is my happy face."

The only thing that comes to mind in terms of guilty pleasures is the first Iron Man game. As bat-shit crazy-annoying as those missiles were (you know, the ones that require you to catch them), I still had fun with that game. It took me a long time to realize that it was a flight sim in disguise.

Glen Beck and Sarah Palin. I love to watch them make fools of themselves, it's like watching a nuke in slow mo, and I just can't get enough of it.

Countless hours of Mike Juge shows: Beavis & Butthead, Daria, King of the Hill...

 

[Darth Sea Bass]

Ooh stick you by daphne and celeste is my guiltiest of guilty pleasures! And if you mention that to anyone else i will kill you capiche?

 

[Alon Shechter]

I..I.... I'm a /b/tard....

I dunno if I have guilty pleasures. Probably according to other people's tastes, but personally, I like what I like. It's what makes my MP3 playlist a minefield; one minute AC/DC, the next Lady Gaga or Aqua. I've got Order Up! on my game shelf next to Grand Theft Auto 4. I just like things that I enjoy, and I don't really get people snickering or condemning something just because it doesn't match their own tastes.

Mine tend to be very bad/cheesy tv shows and some trashy "love" reality tv shows. I hate them yet sometimes there's nothing I want more then just seat and watch all episodes one after the other... It's so brainless to me that it relaxes me completely.

Did... did she just diss Legally Blonde: The Musical? Without having seen the entire thing? Because I have seen it, and I will recommend it to anyone who isn't immediately turned off by the fact that it's a musical. The movie was actually pretty good, and the musical is better, not worse. I'm not sure how that happened, but I'm not one to complain about a good thing -- there really isn't anything guilty about this pleasure. If anyone's interested, the whole thing was up on youtube the last time I checked.


Edit:

It's cool, I'm particularly fond of "Is He Gay Or European".

Is it sad that this was the first song that popped into my head, too?


The song is great, but it's got the one negative change from the movie: the boyfriend calls him a bastard instead of a *****. That was one of the best lines in the movie, and it loses a lot of punch by changing the word.

There's quite a few anime series I could go into, like having the DBZ VHS tapes still (yeah, even the boxset that lines up their faces) or my ridiculous love for Yu Yu Hakusho to the point of having a display case full of figures from that series alone, but I'll dig deeper, since calling it a "guilty pleasure" means that there's some shame involved and these two things... well... o.k. moving on.

Reality T.V. shows. And I'm not talking like "Survivor" or things like that, I'm talking like, "America's Next Top Model," and, "Hell's Kitchen," and those first couple of weeks of "American Idol," where they show the people who are just awful. Yeah, I'm always in front of the T.V. when Ramsey is swearing over things being raw, or when Tyra is making girls pose in nothing but... hair... and... yeah, I'm done now. I have clearly embarrassed myself enough.

I'm a sucker for feel-good drama films - not necessarily romances though. For example: I adore Calender Girls. There's something about pretty scenery and happily gossiping middle-aged ladies that makes me go all fuzzy. Well what do you know? I really am a girl!

And on top of that, Digimon. The voice acting is beyond crap, but I adored it as a child and dammit I adore it now! I'll listen to the theme tune until I can sing it backwards.

 

[LornMind]

Guilty pleasures...

Carameldansen (mentioned above)
The Sims
Rihanna's Disturbia
Lucky Star

I'll add more later, maybe.

How is Lucky Star a guilty...

Actually...you're right. So, so, so terribly, sadly right.

<< I wuv you Konata...

 

[Supernaut565]

Dynasty Warriors it is truly awful level of pointless fun i get from those games.

 

[Majora Major]

Oh My God? It's all about Whipped Into Shape!

I don't see my love for musicals as a guilty pleasure, per se. From Fiddler on the Roof to Company, La Cage au Falls to Cabaret, musicals have always been a magical realm for human expression for me.

However, you do get those flighty shows like Legally Blonde and Spider-Man: Turn off the Dark that need to go somewhere and die a painful death.


I feel more confidant and proud of my guilty pleasure now that someone has thrown out Klingon sex. I mean, I can't think of anything worse than that (and yes, I am including the "Reunion" ep with Worf and K'Ehleyr). *Shudders*

My guilty pleasure? The Real Housewives of New York, New Jersey, Atlanta, and Beverly Hills. Orange County and D.C. were too boring for me. *Yawn*

 

[Atmos Duality]

I enjoyed the movie "The Spirit" (by Frank Miller)

I haven't seen the English dub, but honestly Digimon 1 & 2 were way better than anything Pokemon could ever shout out. Better soundtrack, better characters, better monster designs and better story. I see no way how that is a guilty pleasure.

So I guess that makes me like Digimon games a guilty pleasure as well.

I also love Card Captor Sakura. There.

 

[EHKOS]

Lucky Star, Pokemon Best Wishes (you have to admit Team Rocket really stepped up and the japanese Meowth sounds badass.)
Eminem
Angry Birds
A couple of Ke$ha songs, not many.
CoD Multiplayer

This video and the song in it.

Spoiler: Perhaps you have heard of it?

I don't know what's so entrancing about it but the song is really catchy. AABA format at its best IMO. And the video is hilarious...

 

[Cursed Frogurt]

Pro wrestling. It's not so much a guilty pleasure as it is something I'll never bring up in conversation unless mentioned. I just find it entertaining, and fun to watch, especially during a really good match. It's also fun to try and predict how the storylines will end up.

Also, Youtube Poop. Yes, there are lots of bad ones, but the good ones are just too damn funny...

My brother has made a handful of Youtube Poops. Here are a few of them. The first one took him two years. He started making it before there were any Mario's Fundamentals YTPs but it still feels pretty original after seeing so many others. We used to play that game on the computer all the time.

And this one is a personal YTP that he made out of a 6 second clip of myself and some friends drunk at the bar (I'm holding the camera, so no incriminating evidence.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArRBcRsUFi4

I'm not ashamed of how funny I find some of them. I introduced my friends to my favorites and we still quote some of the better CDi ones.

World of Warcraft is...quite fun...

You heard nothing of this, correct?

You said Everquest II sucks. Nothing new.

I did? Since when?

I don't know how to respond with out explaining my shitty joke. So I won't.
