Dara & Karman's Hit List: "Guilty Pleasures" (Episode 8)Jane Austen once wrote, "Let other pens dwell on guilt and misery," and we couldn't agree with her more. This week, Dara and I attempt to put the "pleasure" back in "guilt" with an episode of Hit List devoted to our favorite guilty pleasures. Be they musical, culinary, cinematic or esoteric, some of our most cherished guilty pleasures seem to have their origins in our childhoods. We're not sure what to make of that, but we're working through it by indulging them.
You might share some of our forbidden appetites, such as Bon Jovi, Showgirls, and Man vs. Wild, and if so, tell us more! (I'm disappointed that I forgot to mention Pants-Off Dance-Off, but I suspect we could devote an entire episode to it at some point in the future. Who cares what TV Guide has to say about it?) If you can turn us on to some new guilty pleasures, please do. Dara and I are committed to furthering our education. Finally, if you want to meet our friend Marbles Harsgrove, who we talk about at length in this episode, visit her here. Prepare yourself for extreme awesomeness!

First!
Suck it, I'm first :p
* Now, off to watch *
*edit* Poster child for underarchievement? lol, that's kinda what I am ;)
O.M.G; Karman and Dara were talking about Lindsey, and Karman was like 'I'm still not wearing any panties... Sounds so wrong taken out of context' i was actually not paying attention and it did sound wrong...
second? yay!
second? yay!
Dara.. blossoms a bit more in a vlog with less people, not that you guys weren't always awesome. You both have the best and cutest grins, felt I may as well say that! Can't wait to watch, unfortunetly essays :( but will watch soon!!
(why does my firefox spellcheck not work on AE posts?)
Oh ladies I have to get in on this one...
I'm the queen of guilty pleasures. Quite frankly I'm just like Dara and Karman I have no guilt over enjoying these things. So here we go!
- AfterEllen.com is my biggest guilty pleasure! I'm seriously addicted to this site. And not just a little people! I have an illness. I have two browsers at work, it's set as the homepage for one. I have a desktop logo that I can click on and boom I'm there. And I check it every 5 minutes, I don't care if I know it's not been updated, I can't stop. And it wouldn't be so bad if I didn't read articles on the site instead of answer my client's e-mails LOL.
- I love love love dipping my Wendy's/McDonalds french fries into my Wendy's/McDonalds ice cream! I swear it will be 10 below zero outside and I will go through the drive thru just to get my french fries and ice cream!
- The smell of men's cologne. I swear to God I have no idea where this came from. I'm 100% lesbian but every time a guy comes within 10 feet of me and he smells good, I'm sniffing him like a crack whore does with a bag of coke. *Shrugs* I don't get it!
- The L Word is another guilty pleasure for me. I seriously think it's one of the worst representation of lesbians I've ever seen, just like Queer As Folk. But still I'm addicted. But I attribute that more to the acting because there are a few great talents on the show.
- The movie Sleepless in Seattle!
- Anything with a lesbian or bisexual girl. She could just be sitting there in the background doing nothing and I'm there.
- Solitare! I take my iPod to the bathroom with me and play rather then do my business.
- Comic Bill Engvall. I know the Blue Collar guys are probably a bunch of homophobes but I love him. When he talks about Here's Your Sign I die laughing.
- Vin Diesel...I have no idea why but I love him! I think it's the voice.
- Any and all mystery shows.
Alright there you go, brutal honesty! Thanks ladies you rock!Number three
...and I thought I was the
Gooble goble!!
Gooble goble gooble goble we will make you one of us!!! I love freaks XD
Watched it when i was like 9 with my sister....it was freakin' awesome!!!
lydia
my guilty pleasure... the l word.
KARMAN & DARA
YOU TWO ARE TOOOOO MUCH
DARA did you say twaddle?? Is one of your freakish pleasures the nurse on South Park with the fetus attached to her head? I love that episode.
This was a great show girls. Keep up the good work
YO MAMMA
Mountain Dew!
Mountain Dew? Why would you have to feel guilty about drinking such a delicious beverage? So good. Bedazzled wasn't so bad, Brendan Fraser was pretty funny and Elizabeth Hurley ... well she was just smokin' hot, no complaints here.
As for my guilty pleasures the biggest one is the oh so pop-tastic stylings of those ever-so-pretty Disney stars. Some of those songs are so catchy it's hard to not get them stuck in your head. All the other stuff I like I don't really care if other people know about it, but the Disney stuff is the biggest thing I can think of.
Great episode ladies, can't wait for next week.

MANswers
You two would love the show MANswers on SpikeTV. It's like a Maxim magazine come to life. Interesting bits of trivia (i.e. the best place to get shot and not die, the fastest way to get drunk although if you do it that way you will die, or how to make a weapon for under 5 bucks) with hot chick scenery.
-------------------
~It means pride.~
Nigella Lawson..mmmm
Her show is the ultimate food porn. Her curves, her accent and just the ways she talks about her food prep is like foreplay.
I cannot believe Marbles is Melissa McCarthy. I had no clue. She is so effn funny! I can always count on you two for the best shizzle!
Awesome show as always!!
Cheers! Til next week..
29:42
I have tried watching this three times now and it always freezes on me at 29:42.
anyone else have that problem?
With dara being the postergirl or rather woman for underachievers and lazy bums and Karman making the quote of the week with
“Don’t let people tell you you’re lazy. You’re ambitionally challenged.”
I can’t tell you both how much I love you. I feel so at home when watching and listening to you guys.
------------------------------------------------------My Photography
yes
It freezes for me too. :(
I'm surprised
Guess this problem never got
Dara + Karman still not fixed :(
no, it keeps doing it to me also and I'm using firefox browser on vista so not just a Mac issue..
i also don't usually have Vlog problems
sad :(
Guilty pleasures?
Uh, as far as i can remember the only thing remotly guilty from that was the actual eating of street hotdogs.
Food porn FTW :D
I watch far too many cooking shows :| At least they give me ideas, right?
When i'm at home [in scotland] i drink irn bru, but in america i drink dew [ask anyone who has traveled with me there :P ]
I'm veggie and have been for years, but i do love the smell of hotdogs, especially when they are wrapped in bacon :P
*is a bad vegetarian*
*shrugs shoulders*
It's not like i actually eat them :P[Ewww, actual bacon...]

dara,
as you spoke i pulled up a google search.. typed "cyclops b-" and google immediately suggested "cyclops babies"
from this i came upon the following site (i bet youve seen it but if not you are IN FOR A TREAT!)
http://www.oddee.com/item_92015.aspx
oh my god, when you get to #4 i hope you're ready to be awed..
i have to go bartend for 8 hours and i am not really sure how to interact with the public after seeing these.
AND PS........ FOOT NIPPLE!??!?!?!??!?!
i'm just sayin'.
my take
For the movie guilty pleasure i'd have to say "groundhog day", i don't own the dvd, but everytime it comes on TV i end up watching it. As for tv, i'm catching up on the gilmore girls lately and i love it.
I'm with you on the food network, and for a food guilty pleasure, i'm just saying: Nutella. a spoon. That's all it takes ;-)
And music wise... Having the buffy musical cd in my car and singing along the lyrics when i'm driving and really meaning it :-p i love it but i wouldn't like to get caught doing it! LOL
And same problem as A_muse is freezes about 2 minutes from the end, but i only tried on IE.
Everything with passion, nothing with talent...
Guilty of Guilty Pleasures!!!!
Altough I have to agree with the girls, I'm told I`m supposed to feel guilty, but I don't really...
B and Pulp movies both old and new, I love Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, love attack of the 50 ft woman and rencently became a huge fan of Rob Zombie as a director I was thrilled with and by the Devil's Rejects, Robert Rodriguez`s Death Proof also scores high on my list.
Coyote Ugly, o.k I know the movie sucks plot wise, and nobody`s gonna protest there weren`t any oscar nominations, but damn if all those girls dancin`on the bar didn`t keep me highly entertained.
And o.k I`ll confess a big one, I`ve written smutty fan fiction.

Bedazzeled! Yes! I did a
Bedazzeled! Yes! I did a little internal happy dance when this one came up, I have seen that movie too many times but I still love it when it pops up on HBO, Showtime, Encore...well whatever one I'm not really sure which.
Ok, so I am currently living in freshman dorms and my roommate HAS to fall asleep to watching Family Guy. So she goes to bed puts it on a timer and then falls asleep. Sounds ok right? NO...she doesn't care which episode so sometimes I am stuck watching the same one 5 nights in a row..even worse she still watches the Season DVDs during the day...SO IT JUST WON'T DIE! I used to love the show...now not so much...
This has to be my fave list so far...
I so agree with the freaks and the food porn...
My other guilty pleasures? Just a random selection...
Instant noodles
Japanese puzzles
Making lists
Dawson's Creek

I blog, therefore, I am
I love watching you ladies!
You two just crack me up. I think I saw Karman's eyes glow red for a moment when Dara knocked Bedazzled. Twaddle is my new favorite word...
Nigela Lawson
When it comes to FOOD PORN Nigela Lawson is the queen!
Just enough sauce....
God yes
She's the absolute queen of FOOD PORN (which, by the way, should be spelled like that at ALL times ;) ) She's a goddess with her hands :p with FOOD I mean...
Nigela Lawson
When it comes to FOOD PORN Nigela Lawson is the queen!
Just enough sauce....
It stops for me with 2:32 left
And also, so many people talk about liking Family Guy....I've never like the cartoony comedies (apart from early Simpsons). But, knowing that you like this show, Dara, I will now give it a shot. I get your humor and love it, so there must be something there that I should look into.
"looks like pork randy...mmm...is this slow cooked?"
Ambitionally challenged
Great list again this week. Dara and Karman could discuss ways to watch paint dry and it would still be fun to watch.
I was a little disturbed by the picture and discussion of Man vs Wild. The poor zebra got the bad end of that deal........and squeezing straw from a camel's stomach, well I just hope I'm never in a position to test that theory.
The only guilty pleasure I can think of at this moment is watching those horrible sports injury shows; the ones where bones snap and joints pop out. It's not that I enjoy seeing people hurt and in pain. It's just fascinating to see the limits of the human body. Maybe this is why I enjoyed the Bodyworks display so much. I'm fine with being a freak......I look nice and normal, until I express what's firing around my brain.
A cat sees no good reason to obey another animal, even if it does stand on two legs.
Dara Does it Again
I'm tired of rumors starting, i'm sick of being followed...
Why "Rumors" by Lilo didn't get more airplay was beyond me. It was super overproduced, but still, it was pop briliance. The video is awesome too. It was when Lindsay first started hanging out with the party girls and I always thought it would have ben a nice touch if the helicopter that swoops down and gets Linds at the end was flown by Tara Reid.
Also, anyone that doesn't like Just Friends is a mental midget. Ryan and Ana are hilarious and every movie should have Julie Hagerty in it.
'Rumours' is good...
... but my personal fave from the 'Speak' album is 'Over'.
Yes, I too, am a fan of LiLo's music. I don't feel all that guilty about it though...
Bon Jovi
sounds good w/ an overload of Mt.Dew:)

Jose Marti
My guilty pleasure: bagpipe
bagpipes
i'm feeling very patriotic so i too will admit to liking some good old fashioned bagpipes................
Aww... yay!
Karmen
waiting...
Same..
I'm craving a new Hit List,
when
will the new ep be here?=/ ..
I always thought
Showgirls was ripe for the Mystery Science Theater 3000 treatment.
Oh and for the real deal check out Survivorman. Unlike the other dude he has no one with him at all. He does all the camera work himself on tripod and a rig that goes around his waist with a 3 foot boom out in front to allow the camera to point back at him as he walks. I think his name is Les Stroud. this week he spent a week on an island in the high arctic.
It's not nice to fool
It's not nice to fool mother nature!!! I love how I only know what you're on about becuase you mentioned it before but I still feel learned in in-joke trivia :)
I love how Karman loves Lindsay 'cus someone said I looked like her (I don't much) but still its nice when ppl like redheads (so many ppl don't in the UK) esp. when its Karman! and makes me think if she likes Lindsay well I'm not much younger! (welll.... i know it'l never happen and she's with the awesome Bridget (a reason for recent vegetarianism?) but whatev!)
Daraaaa I LOVE your look in this ep, seriously! the T-shirt suits you, the colour look really nice, you're sweet and hot at the same time
hmmm, i alternated between talking to you guys and about, and put brackets inside brackets).. odd writing style
