Guilty Pleasures

I like Jackie Chan films. All of them.

And Country Music, especially love songs late at night.

*cue the violins* "...these are a few of my faaaavorite things." Ok, I'm no Julie Andrews. But there are some things that I just like, despite popular opinion, fashionable tastes, or... rational explanation.

What are some of your guilty pleasures?

Those aren't guilty pleasures. Why would you feel guilty about those things?

If you have to ask, you can't afford it. Who made you the big Jello Sheriff of the house?

I just don't get why you'd be guilty about liking love songs or Jackie Chan movies that's all.

If you felt guilty about looking at porn or eating the last of the icecream, now that I could understand.

I don't feel guilty about my pleasures, either. As long as they aren't hurting anyone . . . including me.

BUT! That's not the point, is it, Big V?

I like to pull ingrowing hairs out from under skin.
It's one of the big things I miss about having a man in my life, as they tend to have more.

Oh and there is a guilty kind of pleasure in squeezing blackheads too.

Country music... yes. Sound of Music... yes. Guilty feeling? No.

Eating cheese steak wedgie from Fox's pizza (with a salad at least) followed by malted milk shakes (homemade) and popcorn with my hubby while we watch Hunt for Red October... Yep, feel guilty. Except for the salad and Hunt for Red October. Hubby and I were still hungry and he wanted to order another wedgie... I resisted. Have to draw the line somewhere!

I know they call it a wedgie because its shaped like a wedge... but I hate saying the name because it conjures up painful memories of being tormented by my siblings. lol

Lots of pleasure; never any guilt.

ZenGum, did you ever rub a thin layer of Elmer's glue (i.e., children's art project paste) on your hands and let it dry, just so you could peel it off?



Because I did.

Yeah, that's awesome.

Have you ever put a bar napkin on top of a pint of Guinness, then pull the head off, let it dry for a while, then roll it up into a ball that has the consistency of chewing gum?

Okay, what about just tearing open the can and dropping the draught-ball into someone's pitcher?

Guinness is many things.
