    Default Guilty Pleasures

    Okay, let's dish the dirt.

    What are some of your guilty pleasures? You know what I mean...things that you would (almost) be embarassed to let anyone else know you enjoy. I'll even give you some categories and I'll go first.

    Guilty Pleasure:
    TV Show: Re-runs of Beverly Hills 90210 (I seriously LOVED that show)
    Movie: Bring it On, 10 Things I Hate About You, basically any teeny-bopper movie that I am TOTALLY not the target audience for
    Song: Sir Mix-A-Lots "I Like Big Butts" (I believe the real name is Rumpshaker)
    Food: Cheetos (I could eat a whole bag without batting an eye)
    Book: Harriet the Spy (yes, I am an adult, but I could read that book a thousand times and never get tired of it)

    Next???
    (Feel free to add more categories if you wish)

    Ok, but remember you asked..

    Dark Shadows re-runs.....I watch em now and think 'this is ssoooo totally stupid' but I still love em.

    Russel Stover Chocolate/Malt Balls. I could eat my weight in those things. Glad I can't get em very often (don't have em in our town) or I'd be so big I couldn't get in the door.

    Mexican food, nuff said.

    A song that I lurve that is so not me (by the style of the song) is "Wild Thang" and I'm not talking about the oldies version of the song. I don't who it is that sings it but it's very hip-hoppy. (something I'd never like otherwise but when I hear this song I head bob)

    I still love the early 70's hippy style clothes (I think they're called bohemian nowadays) and was tickled pink to see them come back into style a couple of years ago. (no, I didn't buy many...just a top or 2)

    Next....

    Music: anything by Hall & Oates
    Food: Ice cream with any chocolate...I eat it right out of the carton. And movie popcorn. I'll eat the whole carton.
    Books: Romance novels. I read them constantly.
    T.V. show: "Extreme Home Makeover'..very corny but I get teary-eyed with every episode. Also old Star Trek episodes.
    Drink: Mexican hot cocoa (Hot cocoa with vanilla and cinnamon)
    Movie: Talladega Nights. So very, very stupid but I laughed my rear off when we saw it.

    I absolutely love to dance to HipHop music. Two of my favorites to dance to are I Like Big Butts and another one that I don't know the name of, but the chorus line starts out with 'from the windows to the walls' and its very explicit but for me its great fun to dance to.
    “When you get to the end of all the light you know
    and it's time to step into the darkness of the unknown,
    faith is knowing that one of two things will happen:
    you will be given something solid to stand on,
    or you will be taught how to fly.” - Edward Teller


    “Our Earth is degenerate in these later days;
    there are signs that the world is speedily
    coming to an end;
    bribery and corruption are common; children no
    longer obey their parents;
    every man wants to write a book and the
    end of the world is evidently approaching.”
    — From a translation of an inscription on
    an Assyrian clay tablet, circa 2800 B.C.E.


    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    courage to change the things I can,
    and the wisdom to know the difference

    Red face

    TV Show: That Girl...so cheesy but I love 'em!
    Movies: Adam Sandler and Chris Farley Movies. They're embarrassingly stupid but I always laugh to tears!
    Music: Sentimental Country Music. I don't share that with people. It's my secret. I actually cry on most of them.
    Food: Crispy pork fat. I seriously love it though I loath fat and grease in almost any other form.
    Books: I still read my collection of Nancy Drew Mysteries
    Other Amusements: Pokemon, Harvest Moon and any Mario video game. I'm getting too old to love 'em like I do! DH plays Pokemon too and he's 33!

    I love jalapeno pretzel bits, I have to have a big glass of water with them..they are so hot. My husband won't touch them, he says there too hot. I don't really like hot foods, but I love these...and there getting harder and harder to find.

    I really like any kind of reality t.v. I know it's probably all fake and scripted but I still love those shows.

    Dance music, I only listen to it when I'm cleaning....but it sure gets me moving.

    Baby Got Back - thats it, thanks to the other posters! Sometimes I'm lousy at remembering the names of songs.

    I asked around and got the name of the other one I like - its Lil Jon and the Eastside Boyz, song is called Get Low. I know, I know, really really bad - what can I say?? But its intense and edgy, I enjoy dancing to it!!
