Guilty Pleasures

ErikaXO · #1 11-13-2001, 11:41 PM

Ok, this is one I posed to the girls on Hooties and we got some great answers.....time to admit your guilty pleasures. You know, those things you hold near and dear but are (understandably) a little bit embarrassed about? It could be that you love New Kids On The Block and think that N Sync is a cheap copy, it could be that you think Martha Stewart is really hot.....it could be lots of things.....lets hear it!!!!!!

Mine......Well, I LOVE (I mean really love) Barry Manilow. Now I'm old, but believe me that when I tell you the last time it was really cool to love Barry I was about 6. But I just love him.....I think his music is so great (maybe the childhood association, I don't know) and he is just so talented and I even think he is cute in a gawky nerdy guy sort of way.

I also am a big fan of (please don't laugh) Richard Dawson. I got really into watching Game Show Network and I love the old Match Game reruns. Richard was just so cute on there, with his little jokes and impressions. And of course I love the Feud.

I'll admit some more later. I want to hear yours!!!!!!!!

Mine all involve TV (my Mom wouldn't let me watch TV as a child, so I am making up for it now!):
[list=1][*]World's Strongest Man Competition (usually on ESPN 2). Who can resist big burly men pulling busses and carrying huge anchors? Ha ha![*]Spinal Tap, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and other 80s "classics"[*]Three's Company (YES!)[*]Days of Our Lives (I tape it every day)[/list=1]

Okay, I have a lot of these..mostly with tv/movies also

shows on the WB: 7th heaven, gilmore girls, dawson's creek, and felicity..I tape them every week...and watch them religiously

the food network..I love watching people cook, i don't know why, its just really relaxing

Fashion emergency on E!-I want to be on this show

Cheesy movies that no one else likes..Now that DVDs are pretty mainstream, videos are mad cheap..so I have a collection of pretty bad movies that no one else likes(who's that girl, grease2..which is one of my favorites!, book of love, etc..)

Anything 70's..Disco, Abba, Leif Garrett, The Jackson 5 etc..

The Brady Bunch- I'm a brady addict..its pretty sad..I can usually tell which episode it is within the first 5 minutes..I've read the book by barry williams..had the best of the brady bunch tape..which i listened to endlessly..so now I can sing along with all the songs on the singing episodes of the show..which I did the other day, and my friend looked at me like I was nuts

.. along the same lines..
The Partridge Family..not as bad as the brady bunch, but I love their music(yes i know, theydidn't really sing/play their own instruments except for david cassidy)..I actually just d/l'd some of their mp3s today..lol

NSync(I <heart> Justin)

Tom Jones

Beverly Hills, 90210- Like the brady bunch, I can usually tell you the entire plot synopsis of an episode based on the first 2 minutes..
Okay, I'm realizing how big of a dork I really am..lol..ohwell

I was really upset when the WB dropped Roswell. We don't get it's new station.

My biggest guilty pleasure has got to be GreekChat. Totally unproductive, but lots of fun

Ok, are we long lost soul mates? I am going to make you very jealous now.....I have MET Barry Williams!!!!! It was just a few weeks ago, before Halloween.....he was here for a WKDD radio disco Halloween party and he made a personal appearance in Kent!!!! He took my old beat up Brady book, gave me a brand new one and signed it!!!!!!! (But personally, I think Robert Reed is the hot one. I mean, I have had extremely erotic dreams about Mr. Brady!!!!! Too damn bad he was gay because if I could mail myself back to the 70s in a time capsule I'd be all over that!!!!)

Tom Jones ROCKS (I have his greatest hits)
I love the 70s....I loved them when I was growing up in them and I would love to BE grown up in them.

Brady fans of the world unite!

I've read the book Bradymania enough to not only know all the eps w/in the first 5 minutes, but I also know the bloopers and secrets. I can also tell the season by hearing the theme song.

I'm sick.

I, too, have the "greatest hits" album and know it all. I made my boyfriend play it in the car the other day. He still loves me, though.

IowaHawkeye · #13 11-14-2001, 12:26 PM

i still sleep with a blanky i had when i was a baby... it's like the size of a napkin now, but i love it!!!!

i'm obsessed with peanut butter chocolate ice cream with gummi bears - everyone thinks i'm wierd?

I have a soft spot for the 80's hairbands - Arya knows what i'm talking about

Guns N Roses, Poison, Bon Jovi - you know you all love them

A Baby Story/A Wedding story/A Makeover Story/A Dating story all on TLC - it's on from 9am - 3 pm here, and i have watched it all day - but only when i'm feeling really lazy and unproductive

I am a woman and hetero but I secretly want to be friends with Jennifer Anniston. I try to catch friends as much as I can and love her hair (when it is shoulder length NOT the "rachel" do) and love her figure and clothes.

I do not like Brad Pitt at all but think JA and i could be friends. She seems like such a down to earth person.

And, I don't think she is beautiful like some super models are. She has imperfect features but I like that about her. I think she is a down to earth normal looking person with a great bod.

I hope to be just like her when I grow up.

I really like her clothes probably the most.
