Guilty Bourgeois pleasures? (lemmygrad.ml)

Mine has to be cop procederals and paper money.

A)I just like solving mysteries and problems and have a natural deference to authority figures, so I've watched way too many cop shows. The only one I'm not ashamed to name is The Wire, which is really good and probably is the only one with genuine substance.

B)It's not the concept of money I enjoy, i just like having a physical thing I exchange to get another physical thing. I..."dislike" per se, using numbers on a screen to get food or something.

Nothing wrong with watching copaganda, but paper money is an unacceptable degree of bourgeois decadence. I only ever pay for shit with quarters and dimes. Anything higher than that is reactionary and liberal.

Check-out clerks always give me these dirty looks, but it's nothing compared to what I get from my landlord.

Technically paper/metal money is legal tender and businesses are obligated to accept it at least up to a certain amount. So yes you could pay your landlord in literal pennies.
