Maybe it’s a show, a game, food, a song, or even a book, but what’s that thing you love even though you know it’s objectively bad?

    Alcohol, but I’ve cut back immensely in the past 4 years. Turns out you can’t drink like you did in your 20s when you’re in your 40s and expect to feel fine the next morning. I think I’m almost at the point where I’m gonna give it up entirely, or just have it on special occasions, because it’s just not worth it anymore.

        Easiest way to do it is just not buy it, that’s how I’ve been approaching it. Or if I do, I’ll only buy on a Friday enough to last a weekend (1 bottle of wine or a 4-6pk of cider/beer/vodka seltzer for me), and that’s it.

      I was in the exact same boat 2 years ago. I don’t know what happened exactly, but I just decided it was time to stop. At the time it was to see how it went, and how long I could go without it. And I honestly never looked back. I feel tons better, and I’m sure I’m overall much healthier as well. And I don’t miss it or crave it anymore, except very occasionally when work gets to the “You have got be shitting me right now” level, and even then it’s not a strong craving and I just ignore it until it goes away. And the $avings!

    Cigars. I only smoke one every month or two, but obviously tobacco isn’t good for you. That acknowledgement aside, I really enjoy them, and have a humidor full of probably $2000 worth of cigars, many aged a couple years.

      I recently had a cigar dream and I’ve kinda been craving one. I don’t wanna be outside, don’t have a garage, and don’t want to smoke them indoors, though. My last ones I can remember smoking were a Romeo y Julieta and a Monte Cristo, but those were like a decade ago.

    I love all kinds of unhealthy food and drink. Cookies, chocolate, cake, cocktails, coffee (it’s not necessarily unhealthy, but I get the runs) … and with sweets, I also have a hard time pacing myself, pretty much the only way to avoid overeating is to not buy any at all.

    you mean other than jorkin it?
    Food. Good god. I’ve been right on the line between obese and overweight for most of my life, but there was a brief period like 5ish years ago where I finally dropped like 30 pounds and got myself looking the way I wanted.

    Then I started living on my own, and while that’s been really good for me in a lot of ways… oh boy, I went hog wild. I’ve always enjoyed cooking and baking, but not having to worry about hijacking the kitchen (or anyone stealing the fruits of my labor!) meant I was making all kinds of cookies, brownies, babka, breads, bagels, I’ve made croissants from scratch a couple times… eventually I memorized my brownie recipe and I got into the habit of, several times a week, making a “single serve” brownie by just throwing everything into one little oven safe bowl (sorta like these) and then eating the whole damn thing.

    Last week I made enough dough for 3 pizzas, so I did one basically normal, and then inspiration struck. For the second one I made a southern-style gravy and used that instead of tomato sauce, and then the last one turned into a dessert pizza. Made a chocolate sauce out of cacao powder, melted butter, sugar, and honey, and then topped it with shredded coconut. Holy fuck, so easy, so tasty, both fresh out the oven and cold out the fridge. Highly recommend. But anyway I ate all 3 pizzas in 2 days.

    Surprisingly enough my weight’s actually been trending downward this month. Maybe if I’m lucky it won’t have to be such a guilty pleasure for too much longer lol

    The Amazing Spiderman 2 has a terrible script but I enjoy it. I think it’s cause I like the actors and their chemistry

    Haribo gummies. They give me awful reflux if I eat a bunch (which of course I always do), and they’re probably messing up my A1C royally also.

    But goddamn.

    Watching romantic K-dramas. We start them together with my wife, because I would never choose to watch one alone, after a couple of episodes it usually slows down and she falls asleep for most of the rest of the series, and I watch it alone while she is sleeping on the sofa. Once she wakes up in between or at the end I summarize what she misses for her ^^

    Listening reggaeton.

    There was a time when I completely despised the genre, more for my environment than for my own initiative; but now I can see the taste in it.

    my favorite album is “Los Extraterrestre” by Wisin & Yandel.

    Okay I had to actually switch accounts before replying, ha ha. My absolute favorite guilty pleasure is reading and writing m/m paranormal smut. Absolutely love it. I hoover that shit up.

    Family knows I write urban fantasy, so when I started writing m/m smut, I had to get a pen name. They think I stopped writing after two books-- but that’s not accurate since I have three books under the pen name. The middle book is so smutty that I would be horrified for anyone to connect me to it but it is a damn fine piece of writing. Damn fine. So full of absolutely animalistic descriptive sex, it’s frankly amazing I managed to fit a plot in there somewhere.

    So, writing and reading smutty books. 😚

    Oat milk lattes. I can’t afford my own machine yet, so I have to pay someone else to do it. Dear god I’m poor, but it scratches a tiny itch that nothing else does.

      The 8-shaped coffee maker is like 30 bucks and most Italians make their coffee with it. Apparently it makes a very decent espresso. Adding it to the oatmilk, voila presto!

      What’s so special about an oat milk latte that you need a special machine? With a little practice you can make quite good coffee with a regular moka pot, specially if you plan to dilute it with oat milk.

    A can of Pringle chips

    I secretly buy about three or four cans whenever we go grocery shopping. My wife’s unwell so I have to do everything at the grocery store and most times I’m on my own. But in just about every trip I buy the chips and sneak them around the house and eat them myself. I love the stuff and my favorite is BBQ.

    Sometimes I feel like some alcoholic sneaking bottles around the house. I have a can in the basement, one in the garage and always one by my desk. I keep track of them all to keep them fresh and renewed.

    I have a problem don’t I? … yeah I know … but I love it.
