Is there a guilty pleasure thread? As pertains to entertainment? I searched and found none.

Anyway, it can be any thing like a show, song, movie, etc.

Off the top of my head, I have to admit that I like the movie Bring It On. I don't know why. I have it on DVD and I actually enjoy watching this movie. I guess it gets a kind of a 'B' rating from most critics. I think most people who know me would react with "You actually like that movie?"

Not to mention I have a crush on both Kirsten Dunst and Eliza Dushku.

Another one is Deep Blue Sea. Yes it's stupid, but for some reason I can watch it over and over again. And I have, despite its cheesiness and knowing how it turns out. It also has some nice eye candy when Saffron Burrows undresses to kill that shark with electricity. (Did I just admit to that? I'm such a pig! )

What's your guilty pleasure? Bring it on guys! (No pun intended)

So many guilty pleasures I have. My whole existence is guilt ridden. Where to start?

When I was younger I liked to loll around in the ersatz halcyon light of The Waltons and imagine myself as John boy.

Chopped on Food Network. I watch it every time it's on even if I have seen it before. That and Hell's Kitchen. There I admitted it. I feel better.

The New York Times, voting, and Death Race 2000.

Conspiracy theories.



Also Hell's Kitchen.

Does it get guiltier than Facebook?

^^Military history? That's my great vice these days.

Silver Age comics. There's always that. Especially now I'm passing them on to the next generation; hopefully skipping all of the hip, dark superhero iterations.

My new one is Instagram.

Then there's vanilla yogurt with agave sweetener and raw nuts.

I wish I had more ...... Sometimes I wish I could still drink. The other day I actually had some beer but it made me feel kind of sick. Bummer.

...

I gave up so many.

Er.

Shootin' the breeze wid youse guys is my only one left.

Except I don't feel guilty about that.

I feel guilty when I don't do it.

I think I have a responsibility, you see.

Oh, and meditation.

That's definitely a guilty pleasure.

As my dear friend Jiddu told me once, "If you knew what meditation was, you would want to do it all the time."

I would love to reread more silver age comics though.

I guess nostalgia is a guilty pleasure too.

...

Here's one: watching unnarrated videos shot while driving through cities I'm completely unfamiliar with, and will probably never visit. Though I usually end up wishing I could.

I find this captivating:

Listening to shortwave preachers and watching religious television.

Okay, who's gonna be the first to admit to porn?

I almost did but chose not to since what I view is merely very erotic art.

No interest in porn, but Reddit... is pretty much pornographic.
