Star Wars.
I mean, shit, yeah it's a good action adventure series (at least the OG series, never watched the new ones except Rogue One) but I never got why people lose their fucking minds over it.
Mel Brooks. All of his films are horrendous and he has to be the most unfunny man who tricked people into thinking he's hilarious. Space Balls is fucking torture to sit through, especially.

Being white (or any other ethnicity besides black I guess) and listening to most rap. Like, the lyrics don't apply to you. How are you not deeply uncomfortable or whatever singing along to or even enjoying a song that you almost certainly can't identify with? Or am I just a weirdo for feeling the need to be able to connect with the lyrics of a song on some level?

I don't like animation that is trying to be cool or badass. I'll watch animation that is light and goofy.
Plus, my earliest introductions to anime were things like Dragonball Z, Pokemon and Yu-gi-oh. Just dreadful shit that I then associated with all of it. That's unfair to anime, but that's just how it happened for me. Then in the early-00's more and more JRPGs became infected with it and turned me off more. So many garbage cutscenes.

I would say the vast majority of popular hip hop anymore doesn’t really have much in it that is culturally specific. Like amigos is just party music with as much lyrical depth as a Britney Spears song.
But, I also don’t understand why Migos are so popular. I just think they are not very talented or interesting in any way. Their beats are ok, I guess?
I think Cardi is also not amazing, but I actually think her lyrics and delivery are, on average, better than Migos. And at least I understand that she is basically the new Nicki Minaj.
There are levels, but having to relate to something is kind of a you thing. Who cares if a song slaps? Do vocalists of other genders bug you if you can't 100% relate?

Migos are a bit eh (and terrible live) but they get a pass on Stir Fry, that's a great tune. I think they got popular as their flow was "interesting." At least kinda catchy.
Cardi I just don't like much, can't put my finger on it. I wouldn't put her on Nicki's level whatsoever, more like a Lil Kim or even Bhad Bhabie. :lol

Beside the vernacular, some of the experiences these songs describe are pretty much the same in poor white-trash areas. Speaking from experience here.
Hell, my white-trash neighbourhood got gentrified a few years back. Most of the "bad" people are gone now, but the soul of the neighbourhood went along with them.
I don't understand the need to identify with someone or something either way. It feels narcissistic. "It needs to be about me for me to like it." I like hearing different perspectives.
(It's why I don't understand Ree's hatred for that Last Night game. Getting a look into the ideas of the "alt-right" should be interesting, right?)

I don't get ASMR but I take the stance that's it harmless. It either does something for some people or it doesn't and even if I think it reaches into new age hokum, like I said its mostly harmless if its just people listening to free videos on youtube.
I do think there is also a sexual fetish thing going on with a portion of that community based on who often does those videos and often what that wear. That doesn't bother me either. You do you. But I also find that some people get a little offended when you mention that despite it sort of being pretty clear in my mind what is going on there.
Pokemon. I was in high school when it first came out so I was outside the target demographic and it just never interested me.
Waifus. Like what the hell. Really.

Is health goth just wearing black athletic wear?No it’s wearing stuff like Rick Owens bombers/sneakers, Neil barrett neoprene sweatshirts, and Alexander Wang (pause) tees, yohji yamamoto mainline or y-3 pants. nikes acceptable in limited situations. Mostly in black & white. Ofc normies have corrupted it and turned it into minimalist hot topic shit.

Oh. Okay. I see. You think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select... I don't know... that lumpy black pair of jogging pants, for instance because you're trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your body when you’re exercising. But what you don't know is that those pants are not just black, they aren’t dark charcoal. They’re not onyx. They're actually sable. And you're also blithely unaware of the fact that in 2002, Rick Owens did a collection of sable cashmere athletic pants. And then I think it was Acronym... wasn't it who showed sable technofabric military jackets? And then sable quickly showed up in the collections of eight different designers. And then it, uh, filtered down through the department stores and then trickled on down into some tragic Casual Corner where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that black represents millions of dollars and countless jobs and it's sort of comical how you think that you've made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry when, in fact, you're wearing the athletic wear that was selected for you by designers in this industry from a pile of stuff.Is health goth just wearing black athletic wear?No it’s wearing stuff like Rick Owens bombers/sneakers, Neil barrett neoprene sweatshirts, and Alexander Wang (pause) tees, yohji yamamoto mainline or y-3 pants. nikes acceptable in limited situations.

I mean, it's not as if I'm listening to music and suddenly say, "Nope! I don't identify with this! I hate it!" It's more of an emotional reaction. I don't know. I can't explain it. Hence why I don't get it.
I don't really listen to music to be challenged mentally anyway. I never liked music from bands like Disturbed or Korn or whatever either because they were too dark and depressing lyrically for my tastes. I don't want to listen to music that makes me feel bad about myself either.

I assumed the only reason why Pauly Shore had a career is because his mother owned the comedy store (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Comedy_Store), which could make or break a comedian. So they had to suffer through his dumbfuckery if they wanted to have a future.
Mitzi went out of her way to shit on Pauly and wouldn't even let him do sets at the Comedy Store.
Oh yeah, I never got Nirvana either. I like Dinosaur Jr, Sonic Youth and a lot of the other bands that were associated with them (which was always a dumb superficial connection imo), but their music just bores me. Teen Spirit is a good song thoDino jr is way more boring than nirvana. Tho they don’t really sound alike or fit the same vibe.

That might've got his foot in the door, but the real story was what a star-maker Mtv was at the time. If you appeared anywhere on that station, you became a household name.
He took his chance and ran with it and seemed pretty novel in comparison to the other stiffs they had on the network (in hosting roles). Of course, Mtv got a big head and thought you could turn any distinguished mentally-challenged fellow into a star and we had to suffer through Jesse Camp for a few years.

Pretty simple. Nirvana took a sound that was not mainstream and put a great melodic pivot on it. Mainstream people don't want to listen to Sonic Youth. The songs aren't catchy in remotely the same way.
Nirvana songs are catchy and sound good for normal people. This is pretty common in music circles. Take something from an edgy sub-genre and make a version that can appeal to the masses.
Note, this is not a quality argument. That being said, I was the perfect example of this. I don't listen to Sonic Youth. I understand why people do, but they don't do anything for me. I listened to the hell out of Nirvana.
Obsession with celebrities that have no real talent [Kardashians, Paris Hilton, ect.].
Obsession with celebrities that have no real talent [Kardashians, Paris Hilton, ect.].I don't understand obsessions with celebrities in general. I won't judge on people mourning the deaths of celebrities. With that said, while I like the work of many of them their deaths don't make me feel anything... but I really don't understand people interested in their marriages, personal lives or opinions on social/political issues. Very rarely do I hear a celebrity discuss serious issues and come across well informed... even when I agree with the cause they're championing. It's slightly less strange than watching videos of youtubers give their reactions to movie trailers.

For me, I don't get neo-puritanism. As someone who spent a lot of years and effort escaping from growing up in a puritanical society, I have no idea why anyone would willingly sign up for any of that.

WATCHDOGS had greater cultural impact than I expected.
You could make the argument that mid-80s American Culture was one of its peaks and that was largely Baby Boomers who were creating it.
Whisky
It's just another acquired taste, like beer, complex red wines, and vagina.
Baby Boomers
They think the zenith of American culture was a bunch of teenagers taking LSD and fucking in a mud pit on a dairy farm in upstate New York. Then they decided that they have to keep talking about it decades after the fact until they die, which fortunately is sooner rather than later.

Basically the 60s and early 70s were a really important period in the US. Current political alignments took shape then (Southern strategy/the McGovern coalition is the prototype of the modern Democratic Party), the affluent consumerist society emerged then, it was the beginning of the media-saturated postmodern culture that the Internet age is the culmination of. Also the last period of major social movements and widespread social unrest.
