True Confessions

I have always been obsessed with the sinking of the Titanic, and have watched every possibe documentary. I don't know why it affects me so deeply and personally, but it does. As I was leaving the movie with my son, he asked me whether I liked it or not, and I couldn't talk. People tell me that there have been tragedies with many more casualties, and they are right, but the thought of those poor souls is very painful to me. The story, as presented in the movie, just served as a way to personalize the sinking; of course it could not match the enormity of the tragedy.

What a fun thread!


hmmmm.....let me think~

I watch every bad reality show under the sun. I actually really enjoyed Bootcamp on Fox (anybody catch that one? It's been about a year now) and jumped around the room when the girl beat the cocky guy

I am such a sap that I cry at everything. Let me think of a good example, oh I know, the movie First Knight, I've seen that dumb movie about 5 times, and I still cry EVERYTIME he's re-united with his dad and when he becomes a true knight. My S/O thinks it's hilarious and calls me his little sap.

Debby, I love cheetos too! I'll eat them until I'm up to my elbows in orange dust! Pringles aren't safe around me either.

I have awful taste in movies. I always pick bad ones for us to go to. Even if I know it's going to be bad, I can't seem to help myself.

I LOVED Bootcamp! Did you watch Combat Missions on USA? It was really good. I think it is going to have another season. Rudy, the retired Navy officer from the first Survivor is the host.
I love old country music. I mean old, dusty country music. Kitty Wells, Marty Robbins, and Bill Monroe old. I listen to it by myself, because I entertain my babies by caterwauling along with it.
I love karaoke. My SO and I will a few cocktails and do a mean version of "Paradise by the Dashboard Light." It might not be so great, but it's fun.
I always watch the old Frankie and Annette movies. I cranked up the lava lamps, flopped on the couch and watched 3 in a row last Saturday. It was great!

my confession is i am 26 years old and love dawsons creek. and have had a minor crush on pacey for some time!

I loved Bootcamp too! I just loved that the girl beat that guy..:laughing:
and Cozy - what IS it with Pacey that makes makes him sooooo darn FINE!?!?!?!?!? - Dawson is too dorky for me... but Pacey?!?!?! PACEY?!?!?!?

I caught Bootcamp about 1/2 way through, and thoroughly enjoyed it! It is fun when someone beats the arrogant guy, because we'd like to beat the arrogant people we have to deal with.The only way I miss a realitly show is if I don't know about it!

I like rap music but I'm very selective. I know, I know, I have not taste.

I also like the Nabisco "artificial" cheese in a can, please don't tell anyone.

Nabisco spray cheese! Nectar of the gods!

Oops, did I say that out loud?

I've actually been known to squirt some on my finger when I didn't have a cracker handy

My guilty pleasure is getting a box of Cap'n Crunch or Cocoa Puffs and eating them right out of the box. What a sugar rush! I never let the kids eat those cereals but I'm the mom and I made the rules!

Those crunchy Sesame sticks. Some places you can by them in bulk! I'll get, say, 2 or 3 pounds of that stuff and it is gone in 1-2 days!!!

Keith

Cheese in a can??? They still make that???:laughing:

Squirt cheese rules! I don't know who decided it was trailer trash food though...I can't even afford it except for special occasions.

Cindy - I have the same guilty pleasure, just different cereals. My absolute favorite was Marshmallow Blasted Fruit Loops. Pure sugar. Unfortunately I can't find them very often. Every adult I talked to loved that cereal, too, but said the same thing - no way is their kid having any!

I don't like B Manilow and I'm not much of an impulse eater or shopper but...

I own 46 pairs of shoes. And I can think of at least three pair I need to buy.

Ah, a shoe-a-holic I tend to not by the spray cheese because if I did it would be gone in a day. I pretty much don't buy all the things I really like or else I'd be pigging out all the time. I about died and went to heaven when they came out with reduced fat poptarts, not as good as the "real" ones, but very good in my book!

Welcome to the site! I'm so picky about shoes that even when I want to buy some I don't because I can't ever find ones that I like. Come to think about it, I'm like that with purses too!

I like to watch Mr. Rogers Neighborhood and Sesame Street . I like the messages they give. I used to hate Mr. Rogers, but now I find him interesting.

I also cry a lot in the movies and in sad shows.

And I like to collect CDS and tapes. I have a library!

When I was in the six grade, I developed a taste for milk bones. Don't tell anyone.

That's all right , Alicia, we like you just the way you are---crying in front of the tv eating milkbones. Seriously, I flipped it on a couple of times and didn't see Lady Elaine. Well, my kids were all grown, so I thought Mr. Rogers didn't use her any more. My 20 something 6'4" weightlifting son came up for a drink of water, and I said, "I think they've fired Lady Elaine Fairchild. I don't think she's on Mr. Rogers any more." And my son, Mr. Macho said, "They can't do that, can they?" We were both so upset over a puppet! Mr. Rogers made his shows here in Pittsburgh. His home was in Latrobe, about 25 miles from me. He's retiring, but don't worry; there are lots of taped shows, and he'll always be our neighbor! Did you know he's an ordained minister?

-cry at commercials and sappy shows
-cry at pet stores
-am a book a holic - I buy at least 1 to 2 books a week.

Hey, Cheryl, I've got you beat on shoes. I have 12 pairs, just in purple. Never mind, how many in other colors. Imelda Marcos is my idol!

Another confession...I hoard candles...nevermind that I have a box full of them in the closet, and a ton of them elsewhere, I can't get enough of them!!! I love smelling them in the stores, but then I have to buy them...I have 15 that are Lilac scented alone! And about 30 more that are other scents....I LOVE them!

Books, chocolate, and fettucini alfredo! Maybe not in that order!!!
