This can include anything from music to film to TV to just all-round losers.
I'll get the ball rolling with:

Don't know the name of the song or even the artist (Joan Jett?) that has the lyrics:
(chorus) "Good-bye to you.
Good-bye to you-ooooo-oo.
Good-bye to you...."

Yeah...fuck how could you feel guity about liking Red Dwarf....it's probably my favorite thing that was ever on TV(favorite non animated at very least). I've been waiting fucking years for the movie.....and I think there still is hope it will get made. The books were fucking awesome too.

The only thing bad about Red Dwarf was the failed pilot for the planned american version of the show that they made.....total crap. - Wed, 16 Feb 2005 2:22am

Sickfuk, I like the D&D, I read those Dark Sun novels (and like it).

For the mighty Curmugeoon I will reveal all. A shameful list of crap that proves I'm really just a shallow asshole.Such as:

If "The Rockford Files" or "MASH" is on TV I will always watch it, even though I can recite entire episodes from memory like poetry.

Terrible songs that I still like or unhip records that everybody else sneers at:

Brand New Lover by Dead Or Alive

Take My Picture by Filter

Apples, Peaches, Punkin Pie by Jay and the Techniques

Backfield in Motion by Mel and Tim (?)

Diamonds, Diamonds by Max Webster

Alien by Mendelson Joe

the beginning to "The Spirit of Radio" by Rush (before Geddy starts to sing)

all the really BAD James Brown records (before the Scotti Brothers records which are so bad that they're terrible.)

Nena's 99 Luftbalons (but only the German one)

Hot Hot Heat's 2nd single (the one that sounded like the Gang of Four)

all those awful Johnny Cash records from the '70's when he pumped them out like sausages outa Columbia records. To call it expedient product is to be charitable,

Cheezy soul-jazz from the Vortex and Embryo labels, started by Herbie Mann in the late 60's on Atlantic's dime.

Living Colour. The band that is.

Magazine and Howard Devoto. I admit it. I love them. Their records are clinics on how NOT to mix albums.

I'm sure I can think of more... - Fri, 18 Feb 2005 12:33am

Well Zipp, obviously a child of the 80's, I'm there with ya on a few of those unfortunatly. Remember the Greatest Amercian Hero? "Beleive it or not I'm walkin on air," once I get that song in my head it's stuck.

Other musical guilty pleasures include Johnny Horton and Kenny Rogers. There I've said it. - Fri, 18 Feb 2005 1:29pm

Zipgunn, I still have my Nena tape somewhere, and musically their album was not so bad. I also have Gang of Four somewhere (Is it Love); I do remember Living Colour, can't remember the guitarist's name but he released a solo album a friend of mine made me listen to several times - I think I would rather listen to Nana Mouskouri at 75 RPM it was so unbelievably awful and screechy. By the way, last time I was at your studio it was somewhere near the Ingie - how long ago was that, I wonder? - Fri, 18 Feb 2005 2:26pm
