What do you enjoy, but are ashamed of admitting to?  When I read the 'Chav' site, I found that a large part of my CD collection is listed under 'Chav music'.  I didn't know whether to cry or run out and buy a clown pendant and Burberry trilby.

I am also reluctant to admit that I enjoy big dumb action movies, particularly those directed by John Woo.  And that I loved the Lord of the Rings films, particularly the battle scenes, which almost made me cry.

So, your turn: Whats your secret shame?  Your guilty pleasure?

Thats disgusting!  Why can't you satisfy yourself with mainstream horse porn, you pervert?

Are these Spanish Horses, Horses with Spaniards (watch it, Dekion!) or some other ungodly combination?

My guilty pleasure: unashamedly pompous rock.

Reality TV.

I'm not ashamed.

I spend a lot of my time reading highbrow literature. Learning about the Soviet Union. Considering human nature and reading works of philosophy.

So what if I like to sneer at the grotesques that present themselves on my TV. So what eh?

It doesn't make me a bad person? Does it?

I still like Coronation Street.  It's like a big comfy pair of slippers when I come home.

Depends whether you vote or not.


*In reality TV, that is.  Although voting in Coronation Street would be pretty sad too.*

The comic strip 'Nemi' in the Metro. I love it because I hate it.

Argh! What am I doing here again? I was supposed to be getting a life...

Oh no I don't vote...

I remember my mum voted for Will to ring Pop Idol. I told her at Xmas, "I hope your fucking happy".

So said she was.

No I don't vote - I take an unashamedly superior attitude to the whole thing. I used to just pretend I didn't take an interest in them - but it was a lie, and at least I am honest with myself. It's a bit like going to the zoo I think.

"simply" watching reality TV perpetuates it no?

My guilt? .. hmm maybe groping girls backsides in heavily packed concert halls. The only time I did this when I saw system of a down a year or two ago. I feel ashamed of it now. The flashing lights and the moving crowd make it a perfect crime since you victim can't see you afterwards. At least its not like chucking bottles or half full bear cans..

Quote from: "Marcus Or Relius"/hangs head in shame

Don't feel too bad, I know people who like the horrific orbs of colour called the "Boobahs". To be honest I don't know whether they are trying to be ironic, satirical or truly do like them.

I truly like this, however;

Yes, I'm 'sad' in the eyes of society. Perhaps it was all those Disney films I watched as a kid. But there's adult humour in there, truly there is!

I, too, hang my head in shame...

You're ashamed of that, yet you freely admit to attending a SOAD gig?

I thought they were fantastic live. I hated the preachy nonse but the music was A grade..

I've told you before, do not be ashamed in your arthur loving! I've sang it's praises on here before in the Kid's TV thread. Any kid's cartoon with an episode featuring hordes of 4 years olds saying fuck has to have respect.

I am ashamed to admit that I like er...

hmm...

I don't know. If I like something then you should be ashamed that you DON'T like it ya hear me? Capiche?

EDIT: Actually I agree with thomasina in that I particularly like 'big dumb action movies' aswell, You can't beat a John Woo or a bit of John McClane shooting stuff. I suppose I should also be ashamed that I'm a sucker for stupid 'kid's' films, the types on at mid-day in the christmas holidays... particularly ones featuring a cheeky animal of some sort. Dunston checks in is a favourite. It's got a monkey!

EDIT 2: Hahaha I just noticed on the arthur site you linked to the first thing it says is: "Arthur is a little ardvark but has a big agenda". If only there was a ... before agenda.

You Bastard!!! So that was you was it? I know I had my hair long and I was wearing my little black dress and heels, but I'm astonished you mistook me for a woman. The jokes on you pervert!

Actually I believe there's a fetish for this. Japanese have it refined down specifically, the locale is the heavily packed train. Apparently certain places suffer from many of these gropers.

All of the incidents have been traced to Wasp Fisting.

That's true - when I went to Tokyo, one if the advice to women was how to deal with groping on a tubes - it's quite common. Here's what the Rough Guide to Japan says:

QuoteSexual Discrimination is widespread, and foreign women working in Japan can find the predominantly male male buisness culture hard-going. The generally low status of women is reflected in the amount of groping that goes on in crowded commuter train - there are even pornographic films and comics aimed at gropers. If you do have the misfortune to be groped, the best solution is to grab the offending hand, yank it high in the air and embarrass the guy as much as possible.

It does go on to say that violent sexual crimes are rare in Japan.

Hairy Chin

I confess i hardly go into Stereo Excursions because you all seem to like different music from me, so most of the bands you go on about I've never heard of, and I'm convinced everyone will think less of me (if that's possible) for the bands I like because they're not alternative or different enough, and some have even been in the hit parade, so I confess I like some popular music. Although that Kelis track is fucking shit.

I also confess to loving the Garfield cartoon strips and being a huge fan of Scrubs. I also confess to owning all four series of Futurama, I've seen every episode of Red Dwarf, I still think Jurassic Park is a great film of merit, and I confess to thinking ET is a shit film.

I'll probably 'fess up more later when I remember some other sins against the grain on CaB.

've seen every episode of Red Dwarf...

thats a sin round here/? Oh bugger.  Is it ok to love it up until they upped the production values and downed the script?

QuoteI still think Jurassic Park is a great film of merit, and I confess to thinking ET is a shit film.
Well, I am with you on the second part.  But i think Jaws is a minor classic, i forget just how tense that film is.  And i enjoyed Minority Report.

This is a grey area as far as I can see, some have been scoffed at for enjoying Red Dwarf, although I think it's only a cardinal sin to have enjoyed EVERY SINGLE episode. I think I'm pushing it by saying I liked watching it right up til the end of series 6, although I will agree some episodes were rather pants along the way to there; and there was no need to digitally fuck about with any of the episodes whatsoever.

Murder will soon be my new guilty pleasure. hopefully very, very soon.

I have a soft spot for Green Ginger Wine and Dennis Leary. Whatever mistake God made in creating me will soon be rectified if the universe has even an ounce of justice contained within it.

This is not a confession, but I have to say that I love this show:



I advise everyone to watch this cartoon because it's hilarious.

Confessions, then. I like Manfred Mann and Pickettywitch. So there.

According to this story there's also a bunch of women gropers on Japanese trains.  While they're having a grope, one of them lifts your wallet.  If you're ever in Japan, just make sure your wallets in a safe place and enjoy yourself!

...And that of course, but I Iike to do it on the quiet.

Actually, not many people seem to know of Dennis 'Des' Nilsen despite the crimes he comitted, perhaps it's because his victims were male and he seemed not to know why he did it himself.
He seems to have faded into the woodwork; doesn't fit the 'popular' serial killer cliché of a ravening woman-hater.
I think Crippen noticed on the Novogate board, he also references a killer I'm sure.
