So many people have such terrible taste in middlebrow American pop culture, as evidenced by this thread, and by so many others.
I mean, truly terrible.
The bottom line is that I've eaten at more trendy food trucks than you guys have. I've heard of more obscure music groups than you guys have. I've unlocked more achievements in video games than you guys have. And I'm more up-to-date on epic TV shows than you guys are.
Edit: with regard to cinema, I am also current on most independent productions newly released to major cities, and am typically able to view the films in independent theaters - or, at the lowest end, an Alamo Draft House.
