eating only apples posted:Honey Boo Boo. Like, every episode of Wife Swap features a way more hosed up and dysfunctional family, and I savor that sorta poo poo. But it's just not there in Honey Boo Boo. They're very loving and accepting. The hate train comes across as a dumb bandwagon that was exploited by TLC and latched onto by kids who ain't got a lot of perspective or experience with different sorts of people.

They don't even strike me as particularly dumb or uneducated, just big into silly redneck culture. That Alana girl actually seems well-adjusted and pretty sharp for her age. I always assumed it stemmed from child beauty pageants being terrible things, and borderline child abuse even before tv cameras roll into the house.

relax-o-vision posted:Dragon Age II isn't nearly as bad as people say. From the fandom's screaming you'd think it was on par with E.T. for Atari when I found it really average but alright. At least mages weren't stuck with inferior plot resolution, because everyone gets a halfassed ending no matter what! Speaking of fantasy games, I love the King's Quest series even when I gently caress up and have to redo two hours of gameplay because I forgot to go to that one obscure cavern to grab the slightly shiny object under a rock in the back of the room to give to the out-of-the-way NPC on the other side of the world in order to progress. I can totally understand why King's Quest was probably the only major series to not get a Kickstarter reboot 2 years ago when reviving the classic Adventure genre was the new fad.

Pretty much all those old Sierra games are like that.

Remember in KQ4 when the whale spat you out onto that tiny island and you had to walk behind the boat and type "get bridle" when there was literally NO indication of anything being behind the boat, let alone a bridle? And then you couldn't get back to the island once you left it? Yeah, gently caress that part. KQ6 was fantastic, though. The whole scene with Death was  as gently caress.

I love almost all kinds of terrible music: happy hardcore, eurodance, gabber, hardstyle, dubstep, breakcore (the more pop-song mashups and awful samples the better), EBM, industrial. There's really no end to my appetite for the worst cheese you can find. I also enjoy Warhammer 40k, collecting things like vintage skate stickers (particularly  Hookups ) and tons of different art styles like tattoo flash, 'occult' (anything with lots of half-naked demon babes and blood and skulls), 1980s cyberpunk (pretty much all old 'what will the future be like' media is like crack to me), outsider art and lowbrow stuff like Fuzi UVTPK and Horfee; pretty much anything that most normal people would find distasteful or unsettling. I love 'trash' culture, people like Leigh Bowery, the New York Club Kids (Michael Alig, James St James, etc), John Waters, Harmony Korine, etc. I used to love Vice Magazine a decade ago before they got old and started to care about money more than content. Just about the only terrible thing I don't like is most reality TV but I do have a soft spot for Man vs Food for the sheer grotesquerie of the food they show and the first few seasons of Pawn Stars were fantastic and I can watch them on repeat forever.

Speaking of lovely TV, I loooooooooove Moonshiners, Maury, and videos of hicks throwing down at Dennys/Wal-Mart/etc.. I like them so much and watch clips on Youtube so often that it's completely convinced that I'm some kind of white supremacist and keeps suggesting to me pro-KKK speeches and and videos about how the south will totally rise again  I also like trashy middle grade fiction, and it exists in great abundance. Whenever I go to Barnes & Noble's, I make it a point to head over to the children's book section and pick out the paperback with the be-all-end-all worst blurb there. Stuff like Eragon, which is just crap, isn't sufficient; only the worst of the worst will do. E.D. Baker is my go-to, but I've gotten varying levels of success just picking up a series I've never heard of before.

NotAnArtist posted:New Girl. Zoe Deschanel and stupid quirky humor. Yeah I like that one too, except lately my girlfriend has been trending more towards The Mindy Project which I don't think is as good (but I watch it with her anyway) Speaking of TV, I devoured the first two seasons of Once Upon a Time on Netflix, partially due to my aforementioned love of kitschy high fantasy and partially because it had a bunch of people from LOST working on it (also because I have a crush on Regina/the Evil Queen  ). I haven't bothered to see if season 3 is on there yet but you can bet I'll be back on the wagon once it is.

I'm huge into kitsch and camp. John Waters and B-52's until I die. I also still like Vice magazine, the news articles and videos are pretty good. Still INCREDIBLY smug on some parts. Brutalism, Googie, and Streamline Moderne aesthetics are the goddamn best and I won't hear another word of it. I don't know what to call it, but I love Tim and Eric. The humor, the whole suburban-80's chic poo poo, everything. Also they manage to get the best goddamn guests. Really happy that others are suckers for ID and Law and Order: SVU. Kombucha. Literally bad taste. But I still guzzle it down like the acidic swine I am. Especially with chia seeds.

I don't know which ones I love more: The girl saying "I'm five bajillion percent sure that this guy is the babbydaddy!" for the fifth man being tested; or the guys saying "Doctor say I can't make no girl babbys" for the daughter. I think we all know how those turn out. My very favorite was one where a rather slow-witted young man wanted his wife tested because he had a dream where she was "sleeping with a white guy. "And you know what they say--dreams do come true!" Maury looked stunned. Of course the guy was wrong. If his wife had killed him right there, no jury would have ever convicted her.

Jumping on the Honey Boo Boo and ID bandwagons. I call ID "murder TV". I've seen so many episodes of everything I can usually tell within 5 minutes when the same story is being recycled on different shows. I also love Hoarder shows, Grey's Anatomy, 16 and Pregnant, and all the Teen Moms. 16 and Pregnant is like a teenage girl version of Jack rear end where they just keep making one dumb wrong decision after another. And when it starts getting heavy because there's a baby in the middle of all the stupid, the show's over. Yaayy. I've also got the blue box blues. Powdered cheese Mac n cheese over gourmet any day. And Taco Bell. Mmmmm. I love gross nasty fake cheese almost as much as the fine, fancy ones. Oh! And almost any alcoholic beverage that comes in a blue variety. My friends have intervened, to a degree, and won't let me buy any more 4 Loko. Roleplaying Dad has a new favorite as of 12:27 on May 13, 2014 |

You want me to give you a life somewhere? Be warned: I still listen to the Monkees, Partridge Family and assorted Buddha-label bubblegum -- as I have done since I was in single digits in the late 1960s. No loving apologies. Also I only get back to the US once a year these days, and I take an empty suitcase for food shopping -- which I fill up with lovely food from childhood. God knows what TSA things when they rummage through a suitcase of Tastikakes, Little Debbys, Pepperidge Farm pretzel goldfish, cinnamon poptarts, Bugles, Munchos, Welch's grape jelly, and other assorted crap. Stuff that I ignored when I was living there; I have access to awesome chocolate in the UK -- why am I now craving Hershey's Almond bars? I wander around US supermarkets like a 1970s-era Soviet defector. Last time I was over my friend took me to a Wegmans; loving Christ, the sheer *size* of the containers and how *cheap* everything is! I couldn't move back to the US for fear of turning into an immobile blob of macaroni and cheese. In the UK: I give zero fucks about anyone who makes fun of me for whole-heartedly loving Casualty and Holby City. Before I moved over here for good, my then-partner, now spouse, would burn those suckers onto DVRs and send them in little 'care packets' about once a month where I would binge my way through them.

I read this secrets blog like it was my job. I'm not involved in EGL stuff at all, I don't really give a poo poo about lolita fashion, and I have no interest in the community aspect of it-- but hooooly poo poo the drama is amazing. It's like drag queen drama but most of the participants are racist, sexist, elitist, mean pieces of poo poo who get actively offended at the existence of overweight people wearing frills. Ugh it's the worst and it's so satisfying to sit back and be completely uninvolved in their terrible poo poo. I don't even like the fashion what is wrong with me

I have terrible taste and I'm proud. It was once said that I could lower the IQ in the room by walking in. I took it as a badge of honor because those guys were all insufferable prats. -Any horror movie that liberally uses blue and red lighting. More 80's, more better. -Coors Lite. I used to be a huge beer snob, but on a hot day or after work I basically want soda pop with alcohol in it. It's refreshing and doesn't taste like anything in particular. This is a Good Thing. -Weird Al. He is hysterical. -America's Funniest Home Videos. The original Take in the Nads Hour. TV at it's finest.

Pretty much everything I like is terrible. I'm terrible. I'll mention Say Yes to the Dress and other lovely TLC wedding-centric reality tv shows. Is it ok if I spend my time mocking them? I seem to mock a lot of the terrible poo poo I like. Sonata Arctica is also genuinely my favourite band, though their last two albums have mostly been awful with a couple exceptions. I love their song Weballergy, who wouldn't love a song about neckbeards and how they'll never get laid if they don't go outside? Also Neopets. A couple years ago I discovered my now 13-year-old account is still active, and there's one particular game that gives you more neopoints with account age, so it makes my inner 11-year-old very satisfied to rake in tens of millions. Then every few months I'll hold a big giveaway and empty my bank account to buy a bunch of poo poo for the crazy 20-year-old girls obsessed with one-upping each other on who can make the prettiest pets. The community is batshit crazy and I stay the hell away other than those giveaways but I like making people happy because I'm a giant pansy  also I really don't have anything else to spend it on because that game is really the only thing I do on the site

Fried food from a bain-marie. I enjoy dim sims, chicken nuggets, potato cakes, etc. normally, but if they've been sitting in a bain-maree for a while and have gone kind of soft, almost soggy and you cover them in salt... mmm, that's good stuff. Also, microwaved pizza.

When I had Comcast cable, they had some of the worst movies ever in their free PPV section. I remember one teen flick about a kid who went to a whorehouse with his buddies and caught a dose. He goes to the doctor and the doctor screens an actual government public-health flick about syphilis and gonorrhea, complete with gruesome images of sores and people whose brains have been eaten by advanced syph. Brilliant! Netflix has some great stuff too... Rubber, about a telekinetic, homicidal tire named Robert, Nude Nuns With Big Guns ('nuf ced), and one of my all-time favorites, Hobo With A Shotgun.
