YouTube karaoke videos...I only do them when home alone. DH has no idea. One time I thought I heard him come home and my heart stopped. Also, I’m terrible.
@brookert615 DH and I play Pokemon Go (used to play Pokemon on gameboy too), along with several of our friends. Sometimes we are pretty into it, making sure to do the special events on Saturdays and such. Other times we go a while without playing.
I used to love watching Yu-Gi-Oh in college. I mostly kept that secret because my mom would call me immature for watching something meant for kids.
I'm also guilty of being part of a FB fan group for a podcast with hosts (and fans) whom most definitely 100% lean in a particular political direction while I consider myself to be in the middle (I agree with things on both ends). The podcast content isn't political, but it's very entertaining to hear and read their very rage-y POVs on things. I don't dare comment that I grew up in a family that very much leans the other way.

@kagesstarshroom LOL! Yes please (check out the spoiler for my trainer code bahah.) You do whatever makes you happy. To be honest most people that tell me they don't watch TV are usually glued to their phones anyways!
Dh and i’s Tv watching consists mostly of YouTube videos. We mainly just watch people play video games. There’s a few actual tv shows we watch but it’s only when we catch up with 3 or 4 episodes at a time. GoT is the exception.
Personally, I love watching Dr. Pimplepopper on YouTube. Sometimes I watch it before bed to help me fall asleep. It’s gross but I find it so relaxing.
@kbrown2385 not going to lie, I have always enjoyed watching other people play video games! There's a whole series of videos of Hank Green playing Pikmin. It's nice because it's entertaining and not totally mindless!

There's a YouTube series called Drunk History too! I've watched maybe 1 episode of it, but I'm told it's good.
There's also a lot of YouTubers that do like MS Paint art to animate and explain history, etc. and other storytelling.

@kbrown2385 ... a good friend of my BFF is one of those people that makes & makes $ off of those video game youtube videos, which I do not understand. I do like video games, but like, old school ones? & MH hates video games (& skateboarders. he cracks me up. he has this, like vitriol for such random things.) Anyway. I am glad to know there are people who watch those vids!
@brookert615 Request sent! I have a different user name over there, but it also starts with K! So the end of the semester is nearing, and I find myself playing PG most around the time immediately following the semester. My bag is LOADED full bc I have the "count the miles I walk even when the app isn't running" thing on & they keep rewarding me w/ a TON of poke balls & I haven't played enough to get my bag down, so I won't be able to accept a gift from you for a while, haha, but I'll send you one once I get back into it, I'll accept yours and send another!!l
I play this castle fighting game on my phone because DH was into and spending a ton of (his) money on it, and I just wanted something to do with him. We've been playing for well over a year now.
When I was in college I was super into those cheesy Disney Channel movies. I never was allowed to watch them at home, so I did it at college. I never let any of my friends know.
The Bachelor/Bachelorette and the "So Many Thoughts" Instagram account where this girl analyzes the royal family's clothes.
Also Facebook/Linkedin/Instagram/etc deep-dives on random people I grew up with just to see what everyone is up to...without, you know, actually being in touch with them.
@celticknotfire I was never a nurse so it’s because we are twisted hahaha. I’m super interested in medical stuff though, so I’m sure that has something to do with it.
I feel like I’m very invested in the Kardashians. I have the App ‘hayu’ which I pay 5$/month for just to watch them unlimited lol and follow them on Instagram and Facebook.
I love the Dr. Pimple videos! Also, I'm really into those ASMR videos. DH thinks it's super weird, but they're really relaxing! But to be clear, the over sexualized "ear licking" ones are gross. I just like watching/hearing people tap on things. 🤷♀️
@marebear15 I'm still super into those cheesy Disney movies.. and I'm 35. At this point, it's not even a secret, everyone knows my love for kid shows 🙃
I absolutely love Married at First Sight. MH has started to love it, too. Lol. We love when a new season starts, guessing who will make it and who won’t... definitely a guilty pleasure!
Re: GTKY Wednesday 5/1
Mine would be I play Pokemon Go. I just started playing last year because a friend needed "friends" and I haven't stopped lol.

Ummmm, AFM, I think ppl would be surprised at the amount of TV I watch--which I take pleasure in & it makes me feel guilty.
@inthewoods23 I can totally see that being entertaining!
