AIBU to ask you to confess your guilty pleasure?

My guilty pleasure is peeling the silver foil off the back of pill packets. DH has a repeat prescription so that guarantees me at least 4 strips a month. It is bizarrely satisfactory to peel it off. Please tell me I'm not alone in having a weird habit

Anyone else have a guilty pleasure/weird habit that you would to confess to?

I eat dry bread. I squash it up and eat it. It takes me back to my childhood (presumably when I was a toddler ) and my husband absolutely kills me for it. It’s a very rare comforting treat!

I gave up guilt for Lent one year and never picked it back up again. I just have ‘pleasures’ now.

@Bellyscreen I do that too!! Squishy bread balls are the best when I was around 6-7 I used to try and toast them on my bedside lamp lightbulb 😂

The shiny foil you get on chocolate, or chocolate bars...

I like to 'iron it out' smooth with my fingers on a table.

Shoot me now - typing that out has made me realised what a bloody sad existence I'm living!

My weird pleasure is creating dances to every song I sing when I'm alone and timing it perfectly especially when baking and cooking

We are the village green, guilty pleasures society
God bless the baking dance, and chocolate wrapper variety
We are the sad gits clan, in our eclectic entirety
Dry bread's no toil, we pull silver foil, and we're full of impropriety!

Why would your DH care if you eat squashed dry bread?

Kraft Cheese Slices....utterly tasteless and plastic in consistency but I love to sneak one from the fridge every now and then. I'm not sure which I love most, slipping back the thin plastic sheet which encases them, or rolling the cheese slice up like a mini carpet and inserting it into my mouth! Excuse me.......just off to the fridge. 😂

I think a guilty pleasure can only be called that if you genuinely feel guilty when doing it.

Mine is looking at one bedroom flats on Rightmove and imagining living alone in them

Smarties and salt & vinegar hula hoops.

And dont judge me...........................................
a Greggs Sausage Roll, theres not much I won't do for one of those!

@Hooli

This is mine too. Glad it's not just me!

@venetian25 ha! I get really into it too. Start imagining how I'd decorate it, where my sofa would go, pick out bedding and soft furnishings.

Watching terrible TV. No one knows, apart from my little brother, that I watch Ex On The Beach. Cannot tell you how pleased I was to see an American version has appeared on my Now TV box

I'm almost 30 and I play The Sims.

@Hooli

Ah yes exactly this, and then my fantasy world gets interrupted by moaning teenagers and grumpy husband.

I will never stop playing the sims

I'm nearly 30 and watch YouTubers like Zoella, Alfie Deyes & Tanya Burr. I know it's trash but I love it

I hope you really do feel the guilt when eating foie gras badlad

My guilty pleasure is feigning uti’s and ‘missing out’ on family bike rides.

Stop, you bad boy!!! No need to feel guilty about any of them

Mine are:

Playing Pokemon games on my NintendoDS (j know, I'm too old. It's just so relaxing just running round and catching pokemon). Same for Animal Crossing. The most relaxing games!

Definitely not while - it tastes too good for that. Usually afterwards, while paying the bill.

Stop, you bad boy!!! No need to feel guilty about any of them

Ironically I now feel guilty abou my post

I love the Jeremy Kyle show! It's great to listen to at work, kind of just reminds you that when you're having a bad day, it's aways worse for someone else. Usually Jeremy..

I second the Jeremy Kyle show, it is my very guilty secret that nobody knows about.
DS1 nearly lifted the lid on this when he was younger telling my DH about the "Angry man show" that I was watching during the day..Thankfully I got away with that one

Fish sticks from Lidl. There. I've said it.

I'm pretty sure they're not closely related to actual fish and I've never been brave enough to look at what's actually in them because let's face it - at 79p for 10 it's not going to be lobster is it

I crave the fishy bastards though I always eat them alone
