[livejournal.com profile] itchyfidget and [livejournal.com profile] f4f3 both tagged me with the guilty secrets meme, which left me in a bit of a quandary, since I don’t do guilt (much) – and definitely not over these topics!



So filling it out once, let alone twice, was a bit of an effort.

Plus, the source code seems to have disappeared (which only goes to prove that memes do have a shelf life…).

Plus, since everyone else in my f-list seems to have done it already, I have no-one else to tag – and the original code clearly stated “fill in all the blanks or it won’t work”. (This made me feel like Billy-no-mates, but stuff it.)

So here I shall do my best to come up with something in each category, but not in HTML. Just be aware that I don’t feel guilty about these pleasures… Life is too short!

  • Culinary: double deckers. Because they are kind of kids’ chewy.


  • Literary: not bothering to read the classics. Because – well, life really is too short. And they aren’t as good for you as everyone pretends.


  • Audiovisual: The Archers. Because they are so middle England. And I am seriously addicted.


  • Musical: Kylie Minogue. How can anyone resist “Confide In Me”, “Can’t Get You Out Of My Head” and “Where The Wild Roses Grow”?

  • Celebrity: Catherine Zeta Jones. Cleavage. (OK, perhaps I feel guilty about that one.)

Guilt free info-tainment! Although double-deckers are obviously dirty.

I'm with you on all these except The Archers.

Mine are:

Culinary: not that many any more, because I've almost completely re-educated my palate, to the point where I hardly need to feel guilty.

I do like curry. And I'm addicted to taramasalata, which I don't think is particularly good for me. But mostly, no.

Literary: As for yours, but substitute literary fiction for classics. I quite like a lot of the classics.

Audiovisual: Well, Clarkson, obviously.

Musical: the 1980s. Wham, Duran Duran, Rick Astley. I'm sure that I could dredge even further if I wanted.

Celebrity: Tim Curry. And Dillie Keane, on whom I have had a crush since 1985.

A friend of mine used to do the lights Fascinating Aida. (He then became an accountant, too...)

Jeez. That's like Wayne Rooney giving it up to become a dentist.

Why is taramasalata guilty? OK, that should be a joke, but I can't think of the punchline. Me, I don't like tarasamalata (jeez, there are too manay "a"s in that word!). I always used to get it confused with humous, which could be confusing.

As for literary, "as for yours" clearly means "completely different"... ;)

I am with you on Wham and Duran Duran, plus most of the Stock-Aitken-Waterman back catalogue. Their self-released "Roadblock" is just brilliant. I can still remember most of the words to Wham! Rap (job or no job...) - oh god, I'm stuck in an eighties time warp! Back to the Tardis!

And did I ever tell you I saw the original Rocky Horror Show - with Tim Curry?

No, you never told me that. I now worship you even more.

And Stock Aitken and Waterman, yes. My childhood.
