I like watching My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding and Toddlers & Tiaras. It's something to do with the frilly dresses and tantrums I guess.

Love the film Hackers.

Waffle House is the best. It is trashy breakfast comfort food, and their grits at our local one are better than IHOP's.

Waffle House is one of those places where you know exactly what the food is going to taste like just by the smell of the place out in the parking lot. Did you know there is a chain of knock off Waffle Houses?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huddle_House
Their website looks better than Waffle House's but if you do an image search their buildings look almost the same with the same style signs and lettering, just different colors. The last one I was inside of even had the same floor plan of a Waffle House.

On the Little Caesars talk, they have some pretty good thick crust. It's about like the old menu "baby pan-pan" pizza that they used to have only each one is 4 slices instead of the old 2, but in the box you get 2 of those so 8 total squares. You end up with about the same amount as 2 of their regular pizzas. It's $3 extra but not made ahead of time (just call before you go), so it's fresh anyway. All in all a much better deal than the $5 ones if you don't mind the wait.

Transformers 3. It's so ridiculously stupid that I love it, I've watched it over and over. Mostly bad movies, I can't get enough of them. The more bizarre, the better. The great tragedy of our generation is that MST3K is gone and too few people know about Rifftrax.

Also terrible books. Like Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake series. A necromancer/crime scene consultant fucks her way through a harem of countless vampires and wereanimals. What is not to love about furry, undead hardcore porn novels where the action falls further away with each book, leaving more and more chapters devoted to how every dude has a massive cock and is into sharing his girl with ten other dudes? The first one I read, I laughed until I cried and I was hooked forever. It's Twilight, the XXX Bigger and Stupider, edition.

I unquestionably love Street Fighter: The Movie despite its abundant wealth of flaws. It's stupid, loud, easily quotable, and has one of my favorite villain performances of all time in Raul Julia's M.Bison.

I'll still occasionally throw on any Marilyn Manson album up until Eat Me, Drink Me when I'm working. Again; stupid and loud, but fun and catchy. Mechanical Animals is kind of a legitimately great album, though.

Rogue Warrior is by all measure, a terrible game, but I absolutely adore it. It's like, a four-hour long acid trip version of Commando filled with Mickey Rourke one-liners. It's especially hilarious if you have a couple of buddies on the couch to pass the controller to during deaths. It also has the single best credits them of anything, ever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEBfKe6BXCQ

Street Fighter is one of my most favorite movies. Everything about it is just so over the top and ridiculous. Raul Julia just kills it, and everyone else just cheeses it in enough to make the whole thing a memorable film.

It was the second movie ever I bought on blu ray, and it was worth it.

Street Fighter The Movie is the absolute pinnacle of the cliché of "so bad it's good". Like, that gets thrown around a lot, but the movie has a genuine charm because it's so obviously awful.

I would participate in a Neopets thread. It's not even worth trying to troll the hardcore fanbase because of the strict moderation, but whenever I get on a Habitarium kick I always produce way more than I can use and could easily gift big ticket items. Like, I build three dozen huge gazebos and then destroy them just to keep the bugs productive and generating Neopoints while I'm out.

Also: how long has Little Caesar's done that $5 hot and ready thing? I feel like it's been 15 years and yet they haven't adjusted for inflation, if that's at all indicative of their profit margins.

When I worked there (2006 and 2007, I think?), we had the deep dish pans but were not allowed to use them. That was another perk of the job. We were told to tell customers that we absolutely could not make deep dishes, but when the cool manager was there, we could make them for ourselves at the end of our shifts.

Kenny Vs. Spenny. It's the stupidest, meanest, most vile thing that's ever been put on television, and it's so obviously scripted that I'm embarrassed that I ever thought it was real.

Every couple of months, I'll get the urge to watch an episode on Youtube. Then I watch another, and another, and another. I've seen all six seasons multiple times + Triumph of the Will, Testees, and basically everything else Kenny Hotz has been involved in over the past 10 years.

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 :shobon: 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

I did this with my old as poo poo Gaia account that I made when I was like, 12. Sold all the poo poo like the OMFG hat and netted myself nearly 1000$ usd because people are way serious about pixel things. Not that I'm one to talk. I still love dress up games.

I just checked and my account(s) are still there! Would totally participate in a virtual pet thread in Games. The neopets community is fuckin terrifying.

Not here. The only things they keep ready are regular rear end cheese, pepperoni or sausage, and they charge nearly $7 for those now, and anything special has to be ordered ahead of time and costs at least $10 (if not more). At that point I'm just as good going to one of the normal pizza chains that doesn't have terrible ingredients.

I actually haven't been going there as much for those reasons more so than actually getting tired of the taste.

-I really really love Tom Clancy's poo poo from before he went totally insane and was just slightly insane. Red October, Sum of All Fears, Red Storm Rising, pretty much anything with Clark, etc. Once he made Ryan president though, he just went to poo poo, going from a guy who had attitude towards the Russians so positive it might have been considered treasonous at the time, to a real nationalist douchebag. :(

-Ron White. I can't even explain this one, but he's the only one of the blue collar comedy guys I don't outright hate, but hell if I know why. And he cuts a mean image with a cigar and some scotch.

-Black Flag, Circle One, and most of the 70's/80's punk bands. No excuse here.

-Bad top 100 pop, I have a huge shame folder of awful songs from the last couple years with like Thrift Shop and Party Rock Anthem.

-Add me to the list of people who love cheap frozen/carryout pizza. My diet means I can't eat it anymore, but holy drat do I crave it every now and again. Same with Pizza Hut wings, goddamn do I love those, despite knowing how awful they are for me.

-Even though I love real Chinese food too, I can't help but crave the occasional meal from the strip mall down the road that serves dishes that have never been heard of in China. It's so wrong, but taste so right.

Yeah, I was into Neopets too. Back when I was in high school, the early 2000's, I remembered my suuuper old name and password from when the site first started and it still worked. For a long time, I had one of the oldest active accounts on the site outside of the staff members. I had a bunch of really early retired items and poo poo too. I sold it all and bought the lab map and got bored of it since getting it to actually give you an interesting pet was completely random. Eventually it got frozen for some reason and I quit.

Can't say I understand your attraction to the lovely games on there. They were all terrible early Flash and Shockwave stuff and barely worked sometimes.

I have an extensive opinion of the Psi-Corps Babylon 5 novels and that scares me. I scare me.

I either have played or will play at least two hours of any lovely free MMO you can name.

There is absolutely nothing terrible about these things. One of my concert going high points was seeing Black Flag and SS Decontrol at the Rat in Boston. That music holds up brilliantly decades later.

And Ron White is funny as hell, unlike the other shticky "Blue Collar Comedy" guys. Great setups.

This isn't that bad, but Archer. I've watched every episode at least 10 times, and my few favourite ones up to 50 I'm sure. It's not even that I think it's that great but I can't fall asleep without watching a couple episodes. I think I may have conditioned myself to use it to calm my anxiety or something.

Considering the Bad Metal Chat that happened earlier, this might be a safe place to let this fly. I really like Dragonforce. Like, they're one of my favorite bands. There's something about over-the-top power metal that makes my brain happy.

Also, this might not count but the show Yu-Gi-Oh. When I was an early teenager I used to watch it occasionally because there wasn't anything better to watch in the afternoon. Recently it showed up on Hulu and I watched 2 and a half seasons of it. It's like an anime version of The Room if you replace football with card games, and relationship problems with ridiculously badly written cartoonish villainy. This also lead me to Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series, which is legitimately one of the funniest things on the internet if you're familiar with the show.

Add me to the Lady Gaga crew. Girlfriend is seriously talented.

There's this one song that I think is hilariously bad; "Like A G6" by the Far East Movement. Todd In The Shadows did an episode on this song, and I agree with him, yet I kinda like this song. It's probably because it's bad in a funny way as opposed to horrible-bad like a lot of songs from their obvious inspiration, the Black Eyed Peas. (I would much rather listen to "Like A G6" than, say, "My Humps").

I also agree with the guy who likes "Party Rock Anthem", despite the fact that it's all kinds of bad. ("Sexy and I Know It", OTOH? gently caress no). That said, "Thrift Shop" is a genuinely good song. :colbert:

-Bad reality TV. Snog, Marry, Avoid, Project Runway, Ink Master/Best Ink/whatever (I do not have, nor do I want, tattoos), ANTM (of course). It started as background noise to draw to, then it evolved into genuine love.
-Online dress-up games. Meant for ten year-old girls. They're calming and there's something weirdly meditative about dressing a doll version of yourself up as a pretty princess.
-t.a.t.u. (oh gosh do I love t.a.t.u.), Blink 182, Avril, Rammstein, other nostalgic pop-punk/dance-y rave-ish/baby metal music from preteen malaise days (AKA "Now THAT'S what I call AMV Music, Vol. 2005"). I thought there wasn't anything I wanted to remember from middle school, but here we are. Pop-punk, the animes, Mountain Dew, and fan-fiction. I'm 22. :cry:
-Steampunk can look really cool. I know it'd be silly to protest with "WHEN IT'S NOT JUST GLUING GEARS ONTO THINGS," because that's implied. But I'm such a sucker for vaguely Victorian BS. It's embarrassing.
-Leggings as pants. Especially patterned leggings.
-Hanna Is Not A Boy's Name, the discontinued webcomic with non-threateningly hot cartoon dudes in it. It was/is so pretty! I have no excuse.
-Anything and everything Vampire: the Masquerade. Even the lovely, lovely novels about the metaplot. ESPECIALLY those. I blame SomethingAwful-- a goon mentioned VtM once offhand and I went to Google it.
-Monkeybone. I still think it's a great movie.

Also, I love Ke$ha but that's not bad taste. That's excellent taste. :colbert:
