Must mention my Krispy Kreme story... (I love them btw, even though they are too sweet)... One of our homeschool groups had a tour of KK planned for Feb. 25... if you remember, that was Ash Wednesday... my first as a neo-Catholic... Man, talk about tempation!! They were giving them away free, too. I figured it was actually a blessing from God. If I could resist free Krispy Kreme on the first day of Lent, I'd be good to go.... But boy was I starving... :drool:

Lounge Daddy

[font="Courier"]Ghost Recon and James Bond games on the GC
The Simpsons
Searching for interesting music at Schuler Books & Music, the library, and on the Internet
Watching low budget movies…

I just watched Python, which starred Robert Englund… wow, what a crappy movie. :P Robert’s performance was one of the few things interesting about this flick – no wonder I saw it in the bargain-bin.
I love these movies.[/font]

i'm sorry, but i need someone to explain this to me. my mom and sisters are OBSESSED with shows such as Trading Spaces, Clean Sweep, Divine Design, etc. HOW can they be likeable?!?! they're fixing someone's house! now whenever they destruct something, THAT is fun.. but choosing paint colors for a bathroom? PLEASE! :wacko: [/quote]
It's so much fun to see the before and then see how the desinger's vision can completely change a room!

I've done some Trading Spaces inspired things to my place. Some good, some not so good, but it's oh so much fun!!

Ahh, Krispy Kreme. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways....

I love that they always give you a free donut when you come in. And I love that they give you a free donut for every A on your report card. Though it really made my brother mad because he had 7 A's and they refused to give him more than six donuts. <_<

That is one of my guiltiest guilty pleasures. :drool:

These are probably sins more than guilty pleasures, but here goes:

Ex-Treme Dating
Blind Date
Pimp My Ride
Newlyweds
The Real World
MTV in general
Women in Bikinis
Cheating at Cards
witty comebacks

how is it FUN?!
they sit there and work on redecorating rooms with flowers half the time (in case u don't notice, i'm not a fan of flowers on the walls)! half the rooms are actually ok before they change them, and they still want to change it! :wacko:

:lol: they are common guilty pleasures, but--
i'd try to start stayin away from some, such as:
Ex-Treme Dating
Blind Date
The Real World
MTV in general---u really have to look if there is actually anything good on there (which there is.. but u have to look!)

we all have our secret addictions... i'm hooked on poker now, thanks to the World Series of Poker they showed on ESPN... and i'm getting much better at it! :D

It's fun to me because I like decorating. So what if the room was ok before? Change is good!!

I guess if you don't like decorating, you won't like these shows.

I'm not into some of the guilty pleasures you listed. I don't see those as fun. But we've each got our own idea of fun.

That's why we're all unique. :)
