What's your guilty pleasure?
-
Maybe it's a show, a game, food, a song, or even a book, but what's that thing you love even though you know it's objectively bad?
Sitting quietly in a room for hours at a time literally doing nothing. I once got curious and just sat in my living room for around 10h straight because I wanted to see what my living room and neighborhood was like at night. Im talking no phone, TV, or anything else just me sitting alone staring off chilling.
Fun fact: I average 3 cars an hour over night in my neighborhood and we aren't really a busy neighborhood off a couple side streets too. Some of the cars leave then come back a few minutes later. Probably drug dealers or something.

Ghost Adventures. I watch an episode before bed like 3 times a week. I used to work in tv production and know it’s not real. But in my experience, more than the other ghost shows, it weaves in some cute tricks along with obvious ones. Something about that mix keeps me just the right amount of entertained but relaxed in a way that helps me fall asleep.
Yoooo, this show is a fucking riot, I love it for the cheese factor

wrote last edited by [email protected]I am 100% too old for it, but I absolutely LOVE the preschool level cartoon Franklin and to a slightly lesser extent the 2011( ? ) 3D CG reboot Franklin and Friends. I used to have one of the edutainment games ( the clubhouse one ) and the domino set as a kid and loved them.
Now, at some point if I ever live alone or at least not with family, want to get all of the PC edutainment games, the domino set, and the original books that weren't based off of an episode of the show. I will someday manifest my inner child's dream!
Edit:
And if there ever comes a time where there is an official box set of every episode out there in the original English dub, I would trample kids at the store to get it.

One of my favorite GIFs/memes across the entire internet. Thank you.

No reason for guilt there, that sounds like pure relaxation.

What things do you love about it?

I had none.
If it brings me pleasure I feel no guilt.

Alcohol, but I've cut back immensely in the past 4 years. Turns out you can't drink like you did in your 20s when you're in your 40s and expect to feel fine the next morning. I think I'm almost at the point where I'm gonna give it up entirely, or just have it on special occasions, because it's just not worth it anymore.
I was in the exact same boat 2 years ago. I don’t know what happened exactly, but I just decided it was time to stop. At the time it was to see how it went, and how long I could go without it. And I honestly never looked back. I feel tons better, and I’m sure I’m overall much healthier as well. And I don’t miss it or crave it anymore, except very occasionally when work gets to the “You have got be shitting me right now” level, and even then it’s not a strong craving and I just ignore it until it goes away. And the $avings!

I've been on a break for some months now, but weed. It's the only thing I really like that I feel somewhat guilty about doing. As much as others might disagree, I don't feel guilty for enjoying frozen pizza and cheap kebabs, or listening to girly 90s pop, or constantly using emojis to better express myself.
In an age of text-based communication dominance, especially at work, and especially remote work, I feel that emoji use is vital to at least attempt to avoid miscommunications. I do not understand people who do not use them, often literally, and they make me uncomfortable.

i want the steam in my milk to make it super sexy
espresso is only part of the sexy
Yeah, that steam thing is really nice, it heats the milk and makes the foam in one go. While you're saving have you tried a small french press to foam the milk? I haven't tried with oat milk but with regular milk i like magic, that's how I make cappuccinos at home when I want them fancier.

Nice cup of tea:
See your enemies driven before you:
"And hear the lamentation of their women."

What things do you love about it?
For starters, as a furry, the anthro characters, love their simple designs. I also love how wholesome it is the majority of the time. Also how chill the show is, especially the backgrounds.
I also like, to varying degrees, most of the songs from the films and official CD ( which I own a copy of ). I personally love the song in the beginning of Back To School With Franklin because I think more people should live life by the lyric "sometimes doing nothing can be such a busy thing".

This sounds like the dream day of almost every older guy (like 50+) I know.
Pure. Peace. And. Quiet.

Okay I had to actually switch accounts before replying, ha ha. My absolute favorite guilty pleasure is reading and writing m/m paranormal smut. Absolutely love it. I hoover that shit up.
Family knows I write urban fantasy, so when I started writing m/m smut, I had to get a pen name. They think I stopped writing after two books-- but that's not accurate since I have three books under the pen name. The middle book is so smutty that I would be horrified for anyone to connect me to it but it is a damn fine piece of writing. Damn fine. So full of absolutely animalistic descriptive sex, it's frankly amazing I managed to fit a plot in there somewhere.
So, writing and reading smutty books.

For a grown man, definitely, you're supposed to watch football, F1 and other sports.
I can't bring myself to watch sports. It's the most boring thing to me.
I totally get rather watching dramatic romance.

The movie White Chicks - Personally can't get enough of how offensive it is to literally everyone
