"One Direction" song parody proves you suffer from arrested development

(CBS News) Everyone has their guilty pleasures, but some tend to be a bit more secret than others. For instance, there's loving a sundae with extra fudge now and again... and then there's being at the front of the line for the midnight, opening day showing of the Twilight series movies. One of those is a little bit easier to tell your friends and colleagues about than the other. Which segways perfectly into the parody video above of One Direction's "What Makes You Beautiful".

I hate to say it, but the parody pretty much nailed the truth of it. Well, that is right until the end when it turns out our protagonist is actually just totally crazy. Who saw that coming? The amusing music video sketch was done by Jest who write about it:

If you're too old for boy bands, Castleville on Facebook, and stars and moons on your ceiling...yeah, you'll like this too.

I've personally got no room to talk, as a large part of my career is based upon a form of arrested development. But how about all of you? Do you have some guilty pleasures that let you relate and laugh (or possibly cry) along to the parody? Feel free to leave me some comment love below.
