Stuff you know you probably shouldn't enjoy but secretly do...


I am far too old for but secretly enjoy the TV series The Inbetweeners, about four filthy seventeen year old boys at a crappy suburban sixth form college. I will even admit to having a little bit of a crush on Jay, even though I am now officially old enough to be his mum. (damn!)



Shipwrecked on T4. Good to watch the beautiful vacuous fools sobbing and wailing in a misery-pond of their own creation.



I own and have read all 7 of the Harry Potter books. Book 6 is my favourite. Yes, I actually have a favourite Harry Potter book.



Countryfile, with John Craven.



Oh, and Come Dine With Me marathons, but I think that's now a universal guilty pleasure.

My computer always warns me not to do things - but I do them anyway. It was just a hint from CC that a guilty pleasures thread already exists - but I have no problem with repeat threads Pinky, so don't worry. It was the format of the attachment that was new to me - CC is a clever girl I tink.

Oh, for f&CUK's sake! I specifically did a forum search as well. Oh, well. I guess there's nothing new in the universe. Should I cancel the thread? Actually, CAN you cancel a thread? Admin, are you still awake? Can I delete this please? Extraneous to purpose!


Sigh.


Drums fingers.


No, I can't think of anything else good, might as well just give up and go to bed with my well-thumbed copy of Harry Potter 6...

One guilty pleasure - is almost laughing when my team Celtic concedes a goal - it seems to excite me in a curious/twisted sort of way. I want them to win but sometimes I like the drag of losing.


Watching movies that do not have happy endings - love that too.


Real guilt I don't like to be honest, that makes you feel a bit shabby.

Hey Pinky B... sorry I was a bit fractious yesterday

tired and gritty after full-on work week

suppose I felt "Guilty pleasures" was rather similar to "Things that have caused me irrational joy"...

which brought out the pompous cow in me! fancy pointing out that thread already existed, how rude of me!

No problem, and thanks. (although if I could delete the thread I still would, mainly on behalf of the person who posted the original thread).


I don't think there ought to be any crossover between this and your thread - this is about shit stuff you like but know you shouldn't, whereas yours is about lovely wonderful stuff and spreading joy throughout the universe.


(and I still can't see your link!)

      Fireworks

      By HeadNun · Posted

      CPR Dave is anti-dogs. Each to their own  I think my dog has perhaps grown a bit less nervy about the fireworks in the last few weeks, interestingly. Our last dog had no problems with them until he reached old age, when he became petrified.  CPR Dave - it's not just sounds of the metropolis they hate, mine collapses in fear when he hears thunder too

      GALA 2026

      There's quite a difference between going for a run around the footpaths and trying to sit quietly for an afternoon in a wide, grassy area and enjoying the peace & nature. The other two grassy areas in the park are used for sports, and both had barriered trackway running through them. The Parkrun had to be cancelled for at least three weeks, iirc. I'm concerned by your continued reference to "the rye" - the event is held in the park, not on the rye (common). There is a big difference, despite the organisers and council artificially amalgamating the whole area when trying to convince everyone that it's only a small area that is closed off. The railings & gates enclosing the park are a big clue...

      Inpost "Parcel was refused" at Barry's - anyone else?

      By fishboy · Posted

      So have you cancelled your contract with InPost / Yodel now? If so, that's probably caused hundreds of parcels to be stuck in limbo, as they've said to me before that they can't redirect them to a different store. I have a parcel that was refused by you twice, the last time on 5/12, and since then there's been no updates, despite me calling them 3 times. They just say it's being investigated, but if they now can't physically deliver to you then that is obviously the issue. So much for shopping for Christmas presents early, looks like I'll never get them now.
