Guilty pleasures?
music from the mid 1960's through the early 1980's (Journey, Foreigner, Billy Joel...ABBA...)
Chocolate. Pizza. (I've never had them together....)
Musicals. Grease, Fiorello, South Pacific, The Music Man....
And a few other things. **sigh** Now I'll have to go watch Grease while eating pizza and a Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate bar....
Luv 'n hugs,

I really like mowtown music, even the Jackson 5

Heather, not to be picky, but liking Motown is fantastic. Even the early Jackson 5.
Now, the Osmond Brothers.........well, that is another story (Hey there lonely girl......OR........they call it puppy love.....)
Oh, God, help me.......

The idea of a guilty pleasure is that these pleasures SEEM to go against our very personalities.
Some of my other pleasures include ELO, NASCAR racing, and Speed Racer. Years ago I used to watch pro wrestling religiously. I still tune in once in a while to see what is going on.
Wow. Now where is that Lizzie McGuire CD?

I love watching the LPGA. I check out the outfits thier wearing. Very short skirts.
I do agree with most of what has been said except the Disney stuff though I do watch Disney toons.
I also happen to think Bugs Bunny looks good in a skirt.

Off-road motorcycling? That sounds like fun. I'd love to try it if I knew I wouldn't wind up dead in a ditch somewhere because I am so uncoordinated!
Okay, here's another - When Maury Povich does one of his paternity shows.
Okay, I must admit I like Barry Manilow's "Weekend in New England."
Whatever these pleasures are - ENJOY!!!!!!!

Hey, Mere--
Wanna borrow my Speed Racer DVD's? I have the first 4.
A guilty pleasure for Anime fans might be any "magical girl" stuff, or shoujo manga. Ai Yori Aoshi was a guilty pleasure, but now I don't dare miss a volume!
Another guilty pleasure--"Star Blazers."

I'm struggling to find guilty pleasures, maybe I just don't feel guilty. That said, I am a big Scooby Doo fan.

Bummer Nikki, the Scooby creator just died. As for the Osmonds,come one...Golf outfits? I'd love to.... I wasn't going to go into heels and such, but, I love ear rings!!!! Ones that dangle.

I'm afraid that you have all taken my last guilty pleasure away from me. I no longer feel guilty about dressing en femme....and enjoy it a WHOLE lot more.
I still have guilt, but none of it is associated with a pleasure.....hmmmmm, well the website "Catholic Guilt" is fun but it's not the kind of guilt you mean.

Lynyrd Skynyrd and AC/DC.
I'm so ashamed.

I don´t know if it fits into this thread but I´m so ashamed to cry at stupid sad movies. The same thing with stupid happy ends.

Don't laugh pleeze...I am really digging disco these days. I do feel guilty for feeling more womanly than most other gg I am around.
January 12, 2007 11:56 AM GMT
DISCO?!?!?!?!?!? Oh, my......
But, in all fairness, my ex did have a good point about disco. It brought "touch dancing" back. Couple danced together again, as opposed to the hippie era where people just flipped out as they wished (not there there is anything wrong with that). Disco did help to bring back people acting doing steps, specific dances, etc.
What made me laugh is that all the people who hated disco went right back into the clubs some years later. They claimed it was no longer disco but "dance music." Never mind that it was the same thing! All they did was change the name.
Disco. Wow. Now THAT is a guilty pleasure!

OKAY THIS IS MY LAST ONE ON THIS THREAD:
Petula Clark. Gotta love her.
The movie "Baby Boom."
Okay, let's talk about other things, like how I fooled Kendra into thinking how I forgot about her LBD.
