Celebrities these days. UGHHHHH.
I mean, they used to have talent and skills. Now they just walk around all day being loud-mouthed and lazy.
I don't watch TV, and I rarely see any movies. So I guess it makes me very out of touch with pop culture. Not that I really care, anyways.

Also, I've lost faith in Yahoo's "News" articles.

Sometimes I "choose" to not keep up with pop culture since I do not care for it. Sometimes you have no choice, but to keep up with it since the news bombards people with news about celebrities who go are led down the wrong path. :roll:

The limit of my popular culture knowledge comes from the 5 second period between when the TV is turned on, and when it is changed to something interesting.

Yes I am!
And I am more liberated because of that.

"Pop" culture is just a lie pushed on everyone by mass media.
It's fake culture.

I'm some what in touch with Movies and TV within pop culture, whether I hear about it from others or on occasion find out myself if I'm looking for something new to watch. Music I'm out of touch for sure, but that is by my own choice as most songs you get in the charts here are terrible.

Did I say I was out-of-touch with pop culture? I think pop culture isolation is the much better term and I agree with most of these examples:
