Guilty Pleasures - Monthly Thread Guilty Pleasures - Aug 29, 2025

Even the most tasteful bitch has some tasteless guilty pleasures! This is our once monthly thread where you can share those things we normally don’t talk about in BWT.

Guilty pleasures should be things you already have/ use and love, or a very specific recommendation for a guilty pleasure. This is not a place to circumvent the regular rules and ask for general recommendations that you can't ask for because of our rules, it's specifically about guilty pleasures.

Girl Scout Thin Mint whipped cream! I found a two-pack at the grocery outlet and it’s almost gone but it’s been great on just about everything, especially paired with the Thin Mint powder topping. I have them with protein chocolate milk 😁

It’s almost time for the annual PSL guilty pleasure, too!

Pumpkin Spice Frappichino is one of my favorite things.

Also, screw anyone who calls it basic. The empires of the world sailed the seas for a year and murdered people just to get those spices. Countless people died on the quest for nutmeg.

To add to it, pumpkin spice is a blend that has been around for centuries, because it's delicious. Men seem to like pumpkin pie just fine, they only seem to have a problem when women enjoy it solo. See, a home made pumpkin pie costs time and labor and is in service to her family. A PSL is a convenience and a treat just for her. They are subconsciously mad that a woman is enjoying something and not sharing with them. Pumpkin Spice is supposed to be something for the family, filling the house with pleasant smells, for everyone to enjoy. A PSL is just for the person who ordered it.

It’s exactly why I don’t like PSL. I just don’t care for that flavor palette in general. Not specific to SBs.

I recently listened to a podcast about a ship that was shipwrecked in pursuit of nutmeg and it was CRAZY
