The Rules: The first player of this game starts with the topic of "5 Guilty Pleasures" and people who get tagged need to write an LJ entry about 5 Guilty Pleasures as well as state this rule clearly. In the end you need to choose 5 people to be tagged and list their names.
1. Tea. I need tea. I love tea. I'm sort of a punk in that I hate the work involved in loose teas, but wrap those jammies up in a bag and I'm good to go. After a recent bout of stomach virus I was given some lovely ginger teas by a relative, and those are my favorites at the moment. If I'm just lounging around I make myself a cup of herbal with no sugar and indulge.
I don't think my love of tea can be categorized as a "guilty pleasure", but I'm sort of scraping the barrel here. I'm so annoying normal (read "boring")it's unreal.
2. Window shopping. I usually don't start out with the intention to window shop. I'll go to the mall with some amount of cash in my hand/bank account with the desire to buy something (generally clothing). I'll walk around to different stores and be so appalled by the price tags that I don't buy anything. Sometimes I'll work up enough nerve to try things on and then I can "justify" my non-purchasing by saying I don't like the way something looks on me.
3. Press Your Luck. Hands-down the greatest game show EVER. Game Show Network obviously loves me, because they've taken to airing it every weekday at 12:30PM when before they used to only occasionally show it at 11:30 on Saturdays. I've actually amended plans in order to leave the house after Press Your Luck, that's how addicted to it I am. The schtick of the host gets annoying, but the hairstyles and the antics of the contestants never do.
4. Dates. Not the kind that might make me stop bitching about being single, unfortunately; the food. The ones my mother buys from Costco...so good! (/Iron Chef chick) They're rich and filling, so I can actually manage to eat no more than the recommended two or three at a time. And they help with the digestion! Doubly good!
5. Dance Dance Revolution music. I can probably put the game up there too, but the music is the most damning bit, I think. There's a fair amount of American music in the later games, but the Japanese pop remains. My brother and I were playing last night and we couldn't help singing along, it's so damned infectious. Ai yai yai yai!
Although I'd definitely touch all of you if given the opportunity, here I touchliving_kindness, lostmiseashellz, fallen_ophelia, witchylass,and jenjiyana. Anyone else can feel free to share their guilty pleasures below because I'm curious like that.

Date: 2006-01-13 06:07 am (UTC)Isn't Press Your Luck just the greatest thing ever? I'm glad I'm not alone in my love of it. The Whammy thing they have now is fun, but not as engrossing.

Sounds like heaven, my friend.
I'm sorry I'm so boring, btw. I think the stuff people list are supposed to be, I don't know, *shocking* or something. No closet furry over here.
