“Some people here think it is a badge of honor to be completely out of touch with modern American culture”
Given the state of our “American Culture”, do you really think it is a badge of honor to be “completely in touch” with it?
How could someone who has never even heard of a major Hollywood celebrity be able to form any worthwhile opinion on the state of American culture, good or bad?
Do you realize how ignorant it sounds to say, "The entertainment industry is destroying our country! I don't know who they are, what movies they make or what songs they sing but it's all bad!" You've got to know who these people are first.
How do you know it’s so bad if you’re so out of touch? Really it’s not that tough to keep up on the basics of what’s going on. Just a little bit of paying attention. If you don’t pay attention, well think what else you’re missing.
