Welcome to the MacNN Forums.

A couple of threads on here have had members admitting to some frankly shameful guilty pleasures such as enjoying Dances with the Stars (Strictly Come Dancing US, yes?).

What else are we ashamed to like?

Me, I love reading but I have been caught with my nose in a Lee Child book more than once. Man are they crap , but you just can't stop reading them!

On TV I really liked Primeval (UK time slip monster dino show on tiny budget). Every week it was pretty well piss poor but something joyful existed about it too.

Coming to Macnn and reading lounge threads, and living vicariously though Dakar's posts.

mattyb · Feb 10, 2009, 08:52 AM

Wife caught me looking at the Hot babes thread a while back. It was really difficult convincing her that this is a forum for Mac fans.

As an aside, a 'Mac' in French is a pimp.

brassplayersrock² · Feb 10, 2009, 09:13 AM

so mac mall would be considered a pimp mall?

Atheist · Feb 10, 2009, 09:48 AM

I've been known to read a John Grisham novel. I watch Ugly Betty and Grey's Anatomy.

Mac User #001 · Feb 10, 2009, 10:07 AM

I f*&king love Harry Potter. The books, the movies, the soundtracks, the underwear, you name it. Oops, too far...

goMac · Feb 10, 2009, 12:06 PM

I eat McDonalds breakfast from time to time.

Eug · Feb 10, 2009, 12:08 PM

I am typing on a Windows PC right now.

Oh, wait... That's not a pleasure.

SpaceMonkey · Feb 10, 2009, 12:15 PM

The "Oops! We overbaked!" steeply-discounted boxes of donuts at my supermarket.

Rumor · Feb 10, 2009, 12:21 PM

I allow guys to give me "favors".

Wait.....

Have any of you ever had sex with an animal?

Dakar V · Feb 10, 2009, 12:29 PM

Hello Kitty Island Adventure.

besson3c · Feb 10, 2009, 12:31 PM

Yeah, I meant to say Hello Kitty Island Adventure... disregard the thing I wrote about animal sex.

osiris · Feb 10, 2009, 12:34 PM

I actually enjoy the old Walt Disney films and animations.

But to counter this purity, I've visited Walt Disney World and Epcot whilst under the influence.

Pop Quiz: Which one is your favorite?

Chaining dogs in Call of Duty:WaW. I feel like such an a-thru-z-hole when I do, but it satisfies me.

Please, like there aren't those of who secretly hope for baby carriages and old people in wheelchairs in GTA.

Is it bad that I enjoy shotgunning the street preacher outside my apartment?

nonhuman · Feb 10, 2009, 03:23 PM

Is Street Preacher a new brand of malt liquor?

zro · Feb 10, 2009, 03:29 PM

Is shotgunning a new brand of love making?

Laminar · Feb 10, 2009, 03:29 PM

Holla.

I enjoy messing with crazy homeless people so much more.

"I'll get you next time, reptilian!"

Laminar · Feb 10, 2009, 03:37 PM

*sniffle* I miss having an XBox.

She wasn't pretty, she wasn't slim, she wasn't ... well we won't go there.

Calling her an animal is however going a bit too far. Different is the term that I used. She's just different.

brassplayersrock² · Feb 10, 2009, 05:41 PM

*looks at mattyb's location* please don't disrespect your countries women like that.

There were old people with walkers in GTA3. The most satisfying moment in video game ever was to grab the steroid pill outside the hospital, run around the corner and smack the pensioner with the walker heavenwards.

PC or PS2? I wouldn't be surprised if there was a difference.

ps2

Dakar V · Feb 10, 2009, 06:04 PM

Then I flat out don't remember. Though I loved that the game the most out of the PS2 GTAs.

I already did that. It's way more epic (and expensive) than an XBox, though. There will be a thread. It involves my car, of course.

Dakar V · Feb 10, 2009, 06:51 PM

Does it go vroom?

brassplayersrock² · Feb 10, 2009, 07:03 PM

so laminar, you finally got those mud flaps you wanted ae?

or perhaps these?

Dakar V · Feb 10, 2009, 07:50 PM

God dammit.

besson3c · Feb 10, 2009, 07:58 PM

I think that Dakar and Laminar are having an affair with each other.

SpaceMonkey · Feb 10, 2009, 08:14 PM

I think you're having an affair with Gladys.

besson3c · Feb 10, 2009, 08:33 PM

Does having anal sex with her count as an affair?

I hope I went too far there...

I guess I should change my name to Big Pimp and get a purple hat with a feather on it on my burger.

Some guilty pleasures:

1. Occasional Facebook logins;
2. Seven Days - if I'm up really late into the night and TV surfing, I'll always watch this show;
3. Star Trek, any of the series - I'll usually watch random episodes if they're on, such as when Voyager and DS9 come on after Seven Days.

Oh come on, on a forum highly concentrated with geeks and nerds, thats hardly a guilty pleasure. In fact, don't you get banned if you don't watch Star Trek?

Dakar V · Feb 11, 2009, 10:37 AM

You should get banned for watching Voyager.

Well, anything before season 4, obviously.
