I think we all know where I stand on this matter.

See this guy?

9189283.jpg

I can't get enough of his bullshit, seriously, he's like conspiracy porn to me: the inconsistent logic, the maybe-kinda-sorta-could-be-true information, the nutbar accusations of government cover-ups, the wild suppositions about history ... all of it, I eat it up like popcorn.

And these two guys?

I *just* started the first season of Supernatural this last week and I can't get enough of their bickering, for real, it's tailor-made for me. The show is great, no doubt, but I can't get enough of the way they snip and snap at each other. I'm sure other shows have done it better in the past or will do it better in the future, but I love it.

And these things?

As a former bartender, I have no goddamned excuse for not making my own. I won't deny it, they're trashy as hell and I love them.

This is a Judgement Free Thread and I will summon Karl Urban's Frown to rain down ... oh, who am I kidding? You geese are going to mock each other relentlessly no matter what I say.

Give us your guilty pleasures and let us all know your shame.

    So many game shows

    I once played 30+ rounds of the online version of Idiotest

    And I've watched lots of Baggage

    Why would you feel guilty about something you enjoy
    Because subconsciously, somewhere deep inside, you fear that you're not supposed to enjoy that thing, or maybe just not enjoy that thing that much.

    Like driving just a tiny bit slower when some jackass in an audi rides up on your bumper in traffic. You feel a tiny bit guilty because you know how much that kind of bullshit pisses you off when your the car in back, but still, you just can't help easing off the gas pedal just a bit until that jerk gets the message and backs off your bumper.

    And by "you" I clearly mean "I", with other similar pronoun substitutions for grammatical clarity.

    The happiest day of my adult life was when I realized I didn't need to even pretend to have the intention of ever baking a cake, to buy cake frosting. I will eat that crap right out of the can with a spoon.

    Also... I spend a lot of time wondering what the statistical average frequency of nose picking is for other adult type humans. I suspect I am well above average. It's an act of community service, though - I'm tall, and don't want the rest of you all to have to look up into that when we talk.

    If you are aware of a statistical link between cake frosting binges and overactive mucus production, keep that to yourself. I'd rather be ignorant and happy.

    Realizing lately that I don't really trust or respect basically any of the moderators here. So, good luck with life, friends! Hit me up on Twitter @DesertLeviathan

    I'm not saying we're soulmates or anything, but we should totally move to Maui and open up a surf shop/detective agency.

    Not to put the kibosh on your surf shop/detective agency, but I think you need to work out the naming conventions first.
    I mean, who's going to be Mac, and who's going to be The Cheese?

    I'm guessing you'll have a pack of highly trained, super buff dachshunds to cover the Cut Hot Dogs part. Maybe dress them in brightly colored board shorts. It is Maui after all.

    Mac n cheese. Mayo. Tuna. Bacon bits. Poor man's delight right there.

    Sea salt and vinegar chips.

    Also, Supernatural is fucking great.

    I have many book series that I consider "gee, this isn't exactly intellectually stimulating, but it's fucking entertaining. Why do I care again? Next page"

    I have chosen this series for many, many years and will continue to do so.

    I've also seriously considered buying the UK copies that aren't available here and having them shipped to me at ridiculous expense.

    I really only started watching game grumps recently, and I only watch the videos since Jontron left. Danny is just funnier and has a better repertoire with Arin. It's more of an improv comedy show with a video-game backdrop.

    Plus I only tend to watch the things that are either one offs, vs, or best ofs. The 'best of' Sonic 06 and Sonic Boom are fucking hilarious.

    But it's fun to watch when you are bedridden.

    I've recently converted a horrific and mindless Tetris habit into re-learning French. Whenever I get a craving for Tetris, I just do some Duolingo junk, or try to parse my way through some French children's books.

    When I start to get a better handle on the language, all of these horrific, crude, smut comics I draw will be easily converted into high-class French erotica.

    Supernatural is a legimiately great show.

    At least, up through season 5.

    The creator of the show, Eric Kripke, had a specific series of story acs planned, which concluded in season 5.

    After that he left the crew to move onto other things.

    Naturally, CW refused to let it end there, and the show's eleventh god damn season is debuting soon.

    Far as I'm concerned, Supernatural is the TV icon for Beating a dead horse.

    McDonald's - Probably my favorite "restaurant." :'D My diet is atrocious in general but McDonald's is at the top of my list followed by a variety of cheesy, fatty foods.
    Hentai - Self-explanatory.
    Shopping - I've actually gotten a lot better with this within the last year, but the fashion thread knows I love new clothes. :P
    Vlogs - My way of living vicariously through people who have a more exciting life than me.
    Tumblr - So many hours wasted reblogging and browsing random pictures.

    I've never fully understood the concept of guilty pleasures

    Why would you feel guilty about something you enjoy

    Because you should be able to step away from something and see that it is objectively "bad" even though you enjoy it.

    Many people say that if a thing is made for the purpose of entertainment, if it is entertaining then it is good, which becomes a philosophical matter and depends on the way you approach art. If you believe that something can be "bad" but that thing still entertains you, then it would be a guilty pleasure because you are guilty about liking a thing which you know is bad.

    Someone can also find pleasure in something that ostensibly goes against their beliefs. If you're a feminist, but get off on bondage and submission, that can be a guilty pleasure. If you're staunchly against racism but always chuckle at old tasteless comedians, that can be a guilty pleasure. If you're a personal trainer and vocally espouse healthy eating, but monthly indulge in some drive through chicken nugs, that can be a guilty pleasure.

    I'm in the same boat as DW in that I used to be a bartender and could easily make delicious mixed drinks for less money, but when I go to the liquor store I always find myself buying sickly sweet vodka coolers and premixed liquor in cans.

    I've never fully understood the concept of guilty pleasures

    Why would you feel guilty about something you enjoy
    for an example specific to me, i spent 2005 to 2008 listening extremely attentively to uk hardcore, a cheesy dance subgenre, and i still go back to it pretty frequently

    it's idiotic, low-effort music that's great for raves and, like, cleaning the bathroom and otherwise is pretty much entirely devoid of virtue

    "guilty" is probably not the most perfect adjective for how i feel about spending my finite time listening to this music but it's like killing a bucket of ice cream solo, it really isn't the sort of thing a man in his late twenties should be doing regularly
