Guilty pleasures

    Whether it's owning all the series of Star Trek on video/dvd, putting Neil Dimond's stirring rendition of "Rebel in blue jeans" on loop or sniffing your collogues seat (I'm assuming female here) when they're on a smoke break, I was wondering what peoples guilty/embarrasing (possibly even socially unacceptable) pleasures are?

    After tonight's episode, mine has to be Celebrity Love Island. Also rubbing up against people in crowded trains. I gest at the last one...or do I?

    do they have to be legal?

    I think that fat people falling over is funny, but I do feel guilty for it...

    Mine is finding the personal details of AH posters, and hunting them as human prey.

    Sticking road-kill in a cardboard box and mailing it to PETA


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,245 ✭✭✭✭Fanny Cradock


    yes, man is the most dangerous and satisfying of prey.

    there are no rules to this thread... they can be legal or otherwise!

    and that should be "jest" in my first post

    sniffing your collogues seat (I'm assuming female here) when they're on a smoke break

    :eek: You perv!! That’s sick! I’d hate to be your workmate

    Pleasures other than the obvious, Eddie rockets and I own sex and the city and friend's box set's so watching them with a bottle of rose wine!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,129 ✭✭✭Nightwish


    Having an entire tub of Ben and Jerrys Phish Food all to myself while watching Law and Order Criminal Intent or The West Wing.

    Watching parents of horrible little kids being all worn out and exasperated. Its funny.

    Proving idiots wrong. Especially in work.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    Something similar to mine Nightwish re: the horrible kids thing, except not only do I laugh at other peoples misfortune but I wish, I really wish something unfortunate would happen to some people, (not seriously hurt but something like knocking over a stack of plates in a shop or some such by accident). :) I'm a terrible person. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,255 ✭✭✭✭The_Minister


    Two blind tourists (American) walking along Grafton street, repeatedly hitting into the poles that line it at the end. Then the man snots himself on a lampost and goes flying on his back. His wife walks on for a second, then turns back, poking with her cane to find him. That was funny.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 465 ✭✭drunkenfool


    bestiality, there are times when i look at my dog and the way it shakes its behind, how would it ...??

    older women, as in 60s 70s
    younger women


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,067 ✭✭✭L31mr0d


    I secretly look at planes flying over head and fold my arms and nod my head at them (like in I Dream Of Jeannie) and expect them to explode... they never do :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,698 ✭✭✭InFront


    Not laughing until The Minister said "(American)", sorry...:o

    a friend of mine left her Sudoku book here at my house when she was visiting a fornight ago, and Ive just used it up on her. Not too guilty mind you, she did all the hard ones. Im not sure I have any really guilty pleasures. Most things you feel guilty about cant genuinely be called pleasure...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,255 ✭✭✭✭The_Minister


    Just remembered I am wearing a pair of Tesco-Value jeans as I type this. And I like them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 620 ✭✭✭spanner


    having the old allied Irish on my lunch break in work and smelling my on farts and getting a kick out of it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,454 ✭✭✭weemcd


    Ripping the complete piss out of someone i know vaguely with my mates and reviling in my own feeling of disdain towards them, criticising everything they do even though I don't know a thing about them... (hopefully when they are in the same room/building just out of hearing range)

    that and listening to bursts of popular music.

    i feel no guilt about anything ever.
    to hell with other people. oh, i also like restoring deleted posts.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,245 ✭✭✭✭Fanny Cradock


    :eek: You perv!! That’s sick! I’d hate to be your workmate

    actually, you are my work mate! *SNIFFFFF*

    (just to clear something up, i don't sniff, rub, own any start trek dvds or am in any way affiliated with neil dimond)

    I get a kick out of finding out about new illnesses that could wipe out humanity and then firing details of them (and a small sample if possible) into space in the hope that alien overlords will find them and use them against us.

    Well I did say it was a guilty pleasure


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,187 ✭✭✭Mrs_Doyle


    My best pal and I decided to go healthy, we created a big healthy eating plan, and we took up aerobics.
    We were so good... publicly!
    Every Thursday, after aerobics, we would go back to her house and order a Chinese take away - in secret! Ha, it was the best tasting thing ever, I think the naughtiness added to the flavour.
    Whenever we went on a 'healthy' walk, we would order a big bag of chips and tell ourselves we deserved it for being so good - Hee Hee hee!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 496 ✭✭trilo


    telling my sister she looks awlful in what ever way..her hair, makeup, clothes etc.. it drives her demented and then we have to be pulled apart for fighting...rofl

    BECAUSE WE DON'T WORK FOR 24 HOURS


    Jesus.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,206 ✭✭✭gustavo


    Having absolutely no sense of work ethic.
    I'd be delighted if there was nothing to do in work most days!

    it's called a joke.

    now you have been banned for personal abuse.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 175 ✭✭exCrumlinBoyo


    Sorry for being off topic but pedophilia in no joking matter. Ask any kids who have been abused; ask them if they found it funny?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,061 ✭✭✭✭Terry


    in the context of this thread, it was humourous.
    sick? yes. but it was meant as a joke. end of discussion.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 163 ✭✭Busterpuss

    Being paid to work but looking up stupid things on the internet all day.

    Picking up strangers in nightclubs and making them cry.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 175 ✭✭exCrumlinBoyo


    I see dead people and provoke and antagonize them… its fun.

    That's not a guilty pleasure. That's my Thursday evening.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,563 ✭✭✭connundrum


    Nothing better than seeing scumbags do away with each other.

    Distribute more guns in the appropriate areas I say, maybe they'll finish the job off.

    Apart from that, I do enjoy a sneaky double mocha with extra toppings on my 3.30 break :cool:

    It's "Forever in Blue Jeans".... not rebel.... There's guilty pleasure for you :p


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 35,945 Mod ✭✭✭✭dr.bollocko


    Do people really sniff their colleagues seats?
    Pfffftttt....!!!???
    Why?
    Is it a trick they learned from their dogs or something?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 592 ✭✭✭Deer


    I'm now sniffing my seat - I can't smell anything. Well that's what showers are good for I suppose!


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 35,945 Mod ✭✭✭✭dr.bollocko


    No I meant ppl sniffing other ppls seats. Why would u sniff your own seat? Thats degrading for you and for the seat.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 592 ✭✭✭Deer


    How is it degrading for me? People sniff their armpits don't they?:D


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 35,945 Mod ✭✭✭✭dr.bollocko


    I dunno if antlers smell or not.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,028 ✭✭✭Hellm0


    I have often wondered if women knew how good they smelled....now I know
