I just realized yet another one..... I know all the dialogue to the movie The Goonies. I've probably seen that movie over 100 times. I have at least now learned to not say it out loud when i'm watching it with friends. :blush:

Hehe I am the same way with the breakfast club. :(

Me too, I forgot about that one. Also Weird Science.

Ahh yes! And Ferris Bueller...

The first time I went to Chicago I went around and re-enacted scenes from Ferris Buellers day off. :blush:

:rofl: OMG I love ferris.... I have seen that movie at least a dozen times.... it's such a classic!!

The Goonies is one of the best movies of all time. So is The Sand Lot.

"...My hair's mostly wind,

My eyes filled with grit

My skin's white then brown

My lips chapped and split

I've lain on the prairie and heard grasses sigh

I've stared at the vast open bowl of the sky

I've seen all the castles and faces in clouds

My home is the prairie and for that I am proud…

If You're not from the Prairie, you can't know my soul

You don't know our blizzards; you've not fought our cold

You can't know my mind, nor ever my heart

Unless deep within you there's somehow a part…

A part of these things that I've said that I know,

The wind, sky and earth, the storms and the snow.

Best say that you have - and then we'll be one,

For we will have shared that same blazing sun." - David Bouchard

I have a major crush on the character John Bender from the Breakfast Club. I watch it like every 2 to 3 weeks...and I love Interview with a Vampire and watching Reality shows such as the Bachelor. :whistle: I actually watched the last episode to the Bachelorette with my fiance once, and we bet on which guy the girl would chose, and I won :D

Hi Everyone,

What an interesting question, indeed! Hmmmm....my "guilty pleasures" would have to be:

1) Eating Smarties (The Canadian chocolate-filled candy): Everytime I go to Canada I have to stock up on boxes and boxes of them, put them in the crisper compartment my fridge, and save them just in case I don't get a chance to go back up the border to stock up on more. I then wait for a special occassion (they are far and few in betweem, luckily) to eat them, one box at a time. Lol..I'm still bummed out too, that I couldn't find the special "holiday green and red ones in a box" the last time when I went over in December. Anyone knows where I can get those or are they discontinued?

And no, American chocolates M&Ms just aren't the same!... :P

2) Watching and singing along to children's movies and children's tv shows: I'm sure our future Baby/Child will enjoy this one with me too. What a perfect excuse to say "it's for the baby, not me" instead of having to hide it... :innocent:

3) Spending too much time on VJ: Lol...I'm sure everyone has else here has this "guilty pleasure" too, right? Oh how addicting VJ can be...a few minutes turns into a few hours...and so forth... :wacko:

Ant (Guilty in smarties, children's shows, and VJ...)

Everyone has a guilty pleasure that they don't like to admit that they have to their friends. Anyone have any that they would like to admit too? :innocent:

I have maple syrup I bought here - it's a product of Canada (Cary's is the brand)

The Bounce dryer sheets we have are made in Canada too lol

I love dryer sheets too, but I've been using the Tarjay brand and they are just as good as Bounce!

My guilty pleasure is CHIPS.... I love chips, any flavour, any brand.... I need to get hypnotized to stop eating chips. I don't care about chocolate, but I love salty snacks.... I'm so bad!!

You aren't bad, baby cakes. You just like chips! That is okay! As long as you aren't eating 5 bags of chips a week, you will survive.

I got some knock off dryer sheets a couple of months ago and they dried up within a few days. Weirdest thing I've ever seen so I refuse to buy no name.

I definitely practice portion control, I count the amount of chips in a serving and put them in a tiny bowl, I won't ever eat out of the bag!! They are soooo tastttyyyy yum yum!!

I'm the same way with salty things. I could just eat tortilla chips plain, I love salty buttered popcorn. And don't even get me started on pretzels...doesn't matter if they are the hard packaged little ones or the big soft fresh baked ones, as long as they have salt I am all over that. *drools*
