What is your guilty pleasure?

Cigars also.
I knew I liked you Dakski, now I know why ;)

OK, I'll confess.........Candy. Mainly Jelly Belly's, Jordan Almonds and Buttered Toffee Nuts. Usually have some hidden in out of the way places. But am always having to come up with new hiding spots as I have 3 pretty good explorers in the house that are not bright enough to throw empty bags away!

I really like making things with resin and molds. Last year I bought a bat mold and ended up making some crimson bats with gold sparkles. It's relaxing and pretty easy to do.

Although I'n not big on military based fps, I love zombie ones. I've been playing Left 4 Dead 2 a lot lately. I'm not the best at it but it's good for relieving stress! Slightly embarrassed to admit but I also love Rune Factory 4 a lot (basically farming, dating, dungeon crawling, weapon forging, etc all in one). What can I say? I love riding my wolf into battle haha

I don't feel guilty about much but I do love to play Eve Online. My avatar is from the game.

I bought three pairs of identical military style high end boots, (the price was incredible). And two pairs got worn rarely, in the back of the closet mostly for around two maybe three years. The same exact thing happened to those pairs when I went to start using the more frequent. The shoe repair man told me it’s not uncommon. He couldn’t fix them without some major cost.

Other guilty pleasures I collect some movies oriented Legos and funko pops.

That’s way cool, now I want to add a picture! Thanks for sharing.

I enjoy an Anime called Kampher. It's so dumb but I enjoy it anyway.

Ouch! Not all soles do that either, but the ones that do- :fight: Like you, I also was told that the "worst thing you can do is keep shoes in storage"! NOW ya tell us?

I also collect and care for reptiles and try to help others do the same.

I am member here on BP.net where I discuss the care of reptiles and my animals’ with other like minded people.

I did belong to Reptile Club.

However.

The first rule of reptile club is that you don’t talk about reptile club.

The second rule is You Don’t Talk About Reptile Club!

The third rule is that if it’s your first club meeting, you have to buy another reptile.

Katie hates this rule and I am not allowed to go to any more meetings of reptile club.

I understand reptiles aren’t really a guilty pleasure. However. All the guilty pleasures
I listed earlier are really passions, as are reptiles for me. As long as you aren’t hurting anyone, I don’t know how guilty you should feel about something you are passionate about and enjoy.

I've never heard of "Reptile Club"...I assume that's local to you? Their "rules" make absolutely no sense to me...

Hmmm, let's see...

Been a gamer since I got my 1st console (Atari 2600) when I was 13. The passion of computers never went away as I've recently studied to be a "Penetration Tester". (yes, that's the real name)
PS4 - MK die hard for life, COD, Assassin's Creed, Star Wars, Battlefront, Killzone, Resident Evil.....
Also do 3D printing. My other "hobby" requires it, which is building & flying turbine-powered RC helicopters & jets.
Oh, and I like to bang them drums to 90's alternative rock, which....most of my family & friends hate. lol

I too fly RC planes. However, all electric, and I stay away from the helicopters. More power to you Shayne; I know and respect what goes into those copters and jets. You must have skillz up the wazoo.

Brad Pitt, Edward Norton, and Helena Bonham Carter. Great movie.

Based on the book of the same name by Chuck Palahniuk. Great author, great movie, great story. Not really about a Fight Club, but that's all I will say.

It's pretty cool finding out how diverse our "non-snake" interests are, and I don't think any of us need to feel "guilty" about them either. That's what life's about.

Yes.

Passion + not hurting anyone = Good times, not guilt.

Nice!! Another RC junkie! :D

Yes sir, been addicted since 2003. I try to get about an hour/night on the RF sim. That thing has saved me THOUSANDS. :gj:

Nothing at all wrong with electrics! I have a little electric speed plane that I haven't even taken up yet. Also have 3 electric scale helis, 3 Align 450s, a 600 Dominator, which is my absolute fav. right now and 2 Mikado Logo 10s. What "toys" do you have?

For what it's worth, my Schnoodle (Schnauzer/Poodle mix), Tyler, is named after Tyler Durden.

My main one is politics. I can read or debate politics all day.

No problem at all! The funny thing about the RC hobby is most of us like to help each other out when we can. It keeps the hobby "alive", so-to-speak.

OK, we're going to need some pictures for this one. What kind of pain?

Project Runway... I teach art and like the fashion part...not the drama. I usually record it and then watch it later so that I can fast forward thought all the drama. My husband watches it with me.

I also like to watch someone play video games, especially RPGs... I suck at playing them myself, but like seeing the graphics and the story lines.

Hmmm.. not sure id consider these things everyone is posting “Guilty Pleasures”... I had to check what Sub Forum this was under before I posted something perverted then realized after it wasn’t in the “Quarantine Room” Hahahaha.

I guess something I’m into is fixing up older equiptment . I have certain Models, Brand and kinds of equiptment I like to buy that are 20 plus years old. I fix them up, repaint them, and get them close to Showroom condition again. My only problem is that I don’t want to use them after... so what good are they? Thats something I’m working on too hahahahaha. Actually I do use them and then touch them up after each season is over.
Heres a little example of something I use during winter . John Deere made a “D” model snowblower in the 90’s. Ariens manufactured them for JD and they were the Best models ever produced for around 10 years. After that John Deere sub contracted all their blowers and push mowers to the company that made Craftsman, Toro, Weed Eater etc which are nothing but Junk... so I searched and found 3 different size “D” model Blowers produced. The Small 724D, 828D and 1032D. They all run great now and look great too.. I even let my wife use the small one this year so Im getting over my strange “dont touch it” situation hahahahah. I use the Big one each year but Ive never used the Middle size Model except to hear it Purrr hahahaha
Ive done this with Asphalt Rollers, Concrete Saws, Plate Compactors, Trucks, Tractors..... etc.. ect... https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...304500d6cd.jpg

I'm a TERRIBLE singer but I love karaoke rooms. My go-to is I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing by Aerosmith (complete with Steven Tyler screaming at the end) and I can pretty successfully rap all of Eminem's verses in Love The Way You Lie. That's my only claim to fame ;)

Remove the canopy and look inside. It'll be the little black box with servo wires plugged into it.

I don't know if it's a guilty pleasure, so much as an addiction, but I like to learn everything.

In my short adult life I've had multiple careers and several jobs covering everything from mechanic, oilfield, welder, truck driver, construction, carpentry, office jobs, and starting my own company as a trucking owner operator, and I'm only 29 years young.

I've learned outdoors skills, hunting, camping, survival, bushcrafting, tactical training and weapons handling, gunsmithing, blacksmithing, metal casting, and tons more. And my place is a sort of urban homestead, so grow as much of our own food as possible and have a small urban hobby farm going.

I've also been an avid gamer, so I built my gaming pc, and that sparked more research into technology and electronics. Which eventually led to a gaming channel on youtube that I haven't really updated in a while, and that led to a collaboration gaming channel with my friend and business partner.

It's become a bit of a problem because I just don't have enough hours in the day to do all the stuff I want to do. Currently my ongoing projects are a native green anole bioactive terrarium that I'm working on building, I've gotta build a stand for a new 55 gallon aquarium so I can plant it and transfer the fish from my 40 gallon into it, I need to build a new quail pen so that I can get some new quail in spring for eggs and meat this year, and I've still gotta find time to process fire wood and redo my backyard fence cause it's getting pretty rough.

HELP! I have a problem! Lol.

Sounds to me like you have a solution. Not a problem. You make sure to live life to the fullest, learn all the needful things and still have fun as well.
