Gotta agree. Much more natural looking. Less in the way of tats, iron-hard boobies and faces, commercial grade shaving and pubic preparation, etc.

Re: crappy stuff you love
Ill agree on the sausage biscuit/mcmuffin combo, but you gotta add grape jelly to that, but for a non modified item Ill take the breakfast burrito
The Odd Thomas book series by Dean Koontz. The way he wraps up books so quickly and out of the blue really annoys me, but this series has a good central character and the first 3/4 of the books are well written, just wish to got he would stop sucking at the end.
Terrible 80s movies like The Legend of Billie Jean, its terrible it has Christian Slater in his first movie experience but I DVRd it one day and dont have the heart to delete it after watching it...twice "Fair is Fair we just want the $608 dollars for the scooter"

Re: crappy stuff you love
Frozen Pizza, specifically Totinos, more specifically hamburger. A buck, and almost as nutritious as the box it comes in.
TaB. The petro-chemical taste is an acquired one, true. It has been described as tasting like the pee of an asparagus gorging skunk, the tears of sad rats, and/or carbonated paint thinner mixed with bile. Not to be confused with TaB Energy, a liquid pixie dust marketed to women, but fit for neither human nor swine.
"Rock Me Gently" by Andy Kim, that remake of "Dar Kommissar" by After the Fire, and all things Foghat.
Hell's Kitchen, The Beverly Hillbillies and Green Acres
The Omega Man and all the Planet of the Apes movies.
And I got five bucks that says all those throwing the dis on Tea Leoni (a goddess) are knuckle-dragging goobers that couldn't get laid in a women's prison if they were waving a handful of pardons...

Re: crappy stuff you love
Three words: SuperSonic. Breakfast. Burrito.
If you worked nights, and had limited options for a fast-food breakfast in the middle of the afternoon, you'd understand.
Also, Roxette fits the category. They know three chords, and their lyrics are ridiculous because English is not their native language...but they can put together a catchy tune.

Objection, relevance! "The Beverly Hillbillies" is NOT crappy, and therefore inadmissible in this thread.
I think a good barometer would be, "Are you embarrassed to recommend it to someone?" I'd never recommend Roxette or the Supersonic Breakfast Burrito to anyone--I would lose stature in their eyes if they ever tried that junk.
I would heartily recommend the Beverly Hillbillies to anyone who isn't hip. I'll LOL more times in one BH episode, than in a season of any sitcom on today. Mr Drysdale alone is good for two LOL's per episode.

Objection overruled. Sit down and cool your jets. Frankly, I feel the same way about the Supersonic Breakfast Burrito; I'd gladly recommend one, although I'd also recommend a roll of Tums, as well. And I could give a rat's ass about how my stature is gaged by others; I'll gladly tell them I like it. But I really don't think I'd recommend The Beverly Hillbillies to a lot of people. It's generally not considered a high water mark in television. It hasn't worn well, although it's probably gotten more sympathy in retrospect due to some camp value. It certainly maintains a lowbrow sensibility, and that's not always bad, just not always appreciated. But I love it, and have no illusions of it's intrinsic value when measured objectively.
And I usually get no less than two LOLs when listening to Roxette, so there ya go....

Re: crappy stuff you love
I gotta pipe up with an objection like youtalkfunny did. Green Acres was fantastic. Truly weird and with a strange off-kilter skew, as Matt Groenig says, it is just as weird now as it was then. It really holds up! Eddie Arnold's timing and variously speeded slow boils and double-takes are priceless. The approach of having the sanest one in the crowd be treated quite dismissively with either tolerance or bemused contempt by everyone nuttier, in a united front, was golden.

Re: crappy stuff you love
Foghat is NOT crappy. And if the poster above me is saying Better Off Dead is crappy, I challenge him to a duel.

Lol. Before I first responded to thread, I asked my gf what crappy movie do I watch over and over again. She immediately responded "fraaaannnnccchh fries".
Obv, I am not speaking to her now. But, I did concede that it might fulfill the intent of the thread.
Also, Foghat/Triumph was my first rock concert and I have a heavy addiction to Sausage Egg Bisquits. SO...

Re: crappy stuff you love
When we were teens in the 80's, my cousin was a musician. He knew other musicians, and they were all going over to some kid's house to "jam" in the garage. My cousin did not know the host.
I was invited to tag along, where I saw this memorable exchange:
HOST: (boasting) See this amp? It used to belong to Foghat!
COUSIN: (scoffing) Every band in New England has a piece of equipment that used to belong to Foghat!
