10. Thumbprint cookies from Giant Eagle (local grocery chain).
They are soooo good with a cup of coffee. Mmm.

I had to stop buying them, because I'm trying to lose weight! :)

15. Watermelon chunks
Okay, maybe it's not so guilty health-wise, but the price in November is ridiculous.

And I can't help it, I'm addicted to the stuff. Something about the crunchy juiciness -- mmmmmm.

The price makes me feel guilty, so it definitely qualifies. At the grocery salad bar it's sort of reasonable, but still . . .

17. The thing about guilty pleasures is that you're supposed to feel guilty for liking them.
Edited on Sun Nov-28-10 01:03 AM by Lucian
I don't. I indulge in my pleasures. :)

My guilty pleasure: Moose Tracks ice cream.

21. That is funny.
Do you offer argument, a case, or an authority with that. Because I have not seen any claim able to be substantiated on any of those points.

The concept of saying someone is guilty has to be matched to the source saying it, the claim alone means nothing.

23. In music, Ke$ha and Katy Perry
Edited on Sun Nov-28-10 09:25 AM by mvd
I know there are pop stars more talented (Michelle Branch, Hey Monday, The Corrs, Taylor Swift, Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, etc.), but those two sure are entertaining to me.

Big Brother and other reality TV, too.

27. Biscuits and sausage gravy.
I can think of few things to eat that are worse for your bodily health than this. So I only have it as an occasional treat.

But, oh MY! :9
