Mine is the daily mail.
I'm sorry.
It's free and it's funny.

Wine, cheese, trash tv, rhw anyone? Yes Im fat.Blush

Ketchuphidestheburntbits · 25/06/2015 13:16

Mine is those trashy magazines (Chat, Take a Break, Real People). My lovely DH bought one this week for me - the front cover includes 'ditch the chips or the wedding's off', 'we're porky posers!', 'sex swap....but who had the op!', 'why I killed my best mate' etc. They make the DM look classy Smile

Another fan of spot bursting YouTube videos here, I'm glad to know I'm not alone. They are strangely addictive.

Daily Mail website, read it every day in my break at work, I find some of the stories and comments hilarious.
Like the poster above (Ketchup), I also love Take a Break, Chat, etc. I feel embaressed buying them and use the self checkout if I can.
I also like some seriously embarassing "Country" music, I like Marty Robbins. My grandad had loads of old 78 records of his when I was a kid, and I still love them. My sister calls it my "cowboy songs". I love listenning to "the ballad of the Alamo" on my morning commute.

Namechanged.

Ear wax and spot videos on YouTube.
Horrible porn.
Picking my nose (and eating it).
I once pissed in a cup as I was too lazy to go downstairs to the toilet.
Have taken sickies and spent all day laying in bed, watching crap TV and masterbating.

Guiltysecrets · 25/06/2015 13:37

I read the daily mail online too!

MichaelaS · 25/06/2015 13:39

I have sooooo many minor "good girl" vices.

Jeremy Kyle
cheap womens mags like Take a Break
ketchup on everything

allowing the small children to put ketchup on everything
not forcing them to eat vegetables ever (one has special needs and is very against veg, the other - well i had run out of ability to care by then)

obsessing over certain gentlemen and spending hours googling them. Current favourite is (completely un-PC slightly odd Brooklyn born but sadly now dead gothic metal guy) Peter Steele from Type O Negative. 6 ft 8. Playgirl centrefold. sigh. i have a picture of him on my desk at work. People keep asking me if it's my husband. It is not. Then they ask me if i "...erm.. know" him. sadly also not. This obsession is all consuming at times. there is a blog written by his family after his death. i have read it all twice. and emailed them. Blush

playing clash of clans on my phone. and another village on my ipad. an another one on my DHs ipad.

am rather more "out" about my interesting sexual history than I ought to be when my colleagues ask me probing questions.

no stop button on my drinking - if I have more than 1 glass, I drink until i am too tired or too drunk to carry on drinking. rarely do i know when to stop. This has resulted in some interesting work nights out.

oh, and plotting my children's romantic lives for them. They are 3 and 6. I have it all mapped out. They will be completely happy for a mother-arranged marriage, right? :)

Deckmyballs · 25/06/2015 13:45

Wine. Lots of wine.
RHOBH
Vanderpump Rules Blush
Licking salt and vinegar McCoys then biting each ridge off individually Smile
Another who watches beauty tutorials on YouTube

Hair extensions! Love big hair Envy
Eating lots of food late at night including ridiculous volumes of ice cream COVERED in flavoured sauces and sprinkles Blush
Watching porn alone and with DH
Being attracted to ladies! Blush

Guiltysecrets · 25/06/2015 14:59

I'm also known on the findadeath forum too.

CatthiefKeith · 25/06/2015 15:11

Fags and Tesco's own make Cheese Balls

Aussiemum78 · 25/06/2015 15:12

Stalking people I don't like online.
Stalking ex boyfriends online to see what they are up to.

Geoff0409 · 25/06/2015 15:12

I love French films, and nobody else in my life does. I even have the soundtrack to the film "The Singer", which is entirely sung by Gerard Depardieu, on CD in the car and I LOVE IT.

squizita · 25/06/2015 15:21

Filthy ready made "spritzer" wine of Lambrini ilk.

Kasey86 · 25/06/2015 15:32

Oh god guilty - after I had DS,I was in the kitchen and needed a wee, DH was on the loo so I got the washing up bowl and did it in there! I was desperate and had hardly any pelvic floor lol I did throw it away though.

I like to have a couple of joints in the evening, DS is in bed, and I don't see it as any different to people having wine or drinks etc. I smoke outside though in my garden room shed thing.

THWOP · 25/06/2015 15:32

Okay I've NC'd for this because I'm not too careful on my usual name...
I sometimes regularly log on to my MIL fb and see what she's been saying about me, she has a group message set up with her two best friends and they just use it for bitching. I found out about it when MIL was visiting and borrowed my laptop to show me a different message her friend had sent her and opened that one by mistake. I guessed her password first time and log on every time I do something of slight significance to see what's been said.
There's really nasty stuff on there, and most of it is completely twisting the situation to her advantage. I know I'm terrible for doing it but I just can't help myself, it's become like an addiction. I try and reason that it's none of my business what she chooses to say behind my back but..
The first message I saw was pitying my DD because I dress her uncoordinated. She was one at the time!
Sooo glad to have that off my chest! Grin

Flingmoo · 25/06/2015 15:34

On my days off home alone with my 1 year old... Eating nothing but crisps and chocolate all day til DH gets home... Blush

I've got a truckload of sex, drugs, rock'n'roll, and petty crime vices too but they're all in the past unfortunately

hiddenhome · 25/06/2015 16:02

Cocaine and Poker.

Seriouslyffs · 25/06/2015 16:08

Oh THWOP!
I would 100% do that but it would eat me up!
are you very careful to not open as yet unread messages or mark as unread?

Seriouslyffs · 25/06/2015 16:12

janes your sabotage doesn't work- I clicked of course but it just takes me to the homepage! Ha!

WhereAreMyDragons · 25/06/2015 16:13

God I can't bring myself to write down the awful habits I have.

THWOP · 25/06/2015 16:16

seriously Oh I'm really careful about it. I only ever log on immediately after she's logged off, so I know all her notifications are checked. I then also think that if one of her friends says she was online she'll presume it just took ages to change Blush I didn't realise you could mark a message as unread....

haveabreakhaveakitkat · 25/06/2015 16:34

THWOP I don't know whether to be impressed or appalled!
