My first thought when someone mentions David Bowie is a phish song with his name. This doesn't mean that I don't appreciate him as an artist and human, because I do.
I just said "hey some people on my moms board didn't know who David Bowie was" and he lost his fucking mind. And he grew up very sheltered, very religious, and overseas.

Kinda scary to be tagged in a flameful thread on not-my-home-board! But I'll play! I hung out with matildasun for three days, asked her SN multiple times, and still didn't know who she was....except that she's awesome IRL.
@this , I grew up listening to Peter, Paul, and Mary, because my mom was a huge fan. We saw them in concert before poor Mary died.
I sing C a PPM song from their kids' album every night before she asks for "Hey Up," from "Pocaboca." LOL.
I watched that video after I saw it on your FB post the other day. My wife started singing along and apparently knows all the freaking words. I was all why the fuck do you know this, and she was all why the fuck are you watching it right now.
David Bowie just released an album this past month. How can he be before anyone's time?! He never really went away over the years.
I, too, grew up in a pop culture void. But when I was able to fend for myself I played catch up and lived some of the 80's during the 90's and 00's.
Well, I don't really like music all that much, so I don't follow current artists either.
I've never heard that new Adele song everyone loses their mind over. I thought about googling it but got lazy.
I'm not a big music person either. I have a few favorite bands, but don't really follow anything current.
I basically just listen to NPR in the car becuase I never get to watch the news at home. Or I listen to the Gilmore Guys podcast on my train commute, lol.
First of all, the Kardashians are NOT famous because of a sex tape. It's not like a family fuckfest, it's just Kim having sex with Ray J (i.e. Brandy's little brother. Aww). They are famous because of the deceased Robert Kardashian who defended OJ.
Second, I will not cast stones about playing for a long time with Barbies. I got the American Girl doll Kit Kittredge the year she came out. Which was 2000. I've already said once in this thread what year I turned 18 (2001).
Now, it was more along the lines of "I'm a collector," type of thing, because I had every American Girl doll up to that point, but, uh. I definitely changed her clothes a few times. And also the clothes of all of the American Girl dolls in my room at the time (which was like 5). I definitely did NOT make up elaborate historical storylines from each time frame for them.
BUT. I didn't bring any of them to college, and I definitely had sex when I was 18. It may be that those two things are related? Unclear.
but they got the show because of Kim's popularity as Paris hilton's bff and then the sex tape. not bc of Robert Kardashian years and years beforehand.
so yeah, the first time people heard the name Kardashian was from the OJ trial, but the kardashians as we know them now in pop culture most DEFINITELY is because of Kim's naked hind parts.
I am not the most in touch with pop culture, but I actually had no idea about the Kim-Paris connection. I thought Nicole Richie was her BFF?

On that note, who is planning on watching the FX mini series about OJ? It looks kind of terrible (hello, John Travolta....ugh), but I am interested.

Lol,I'm dying at myself! In my defense my 8 month old was up all night with a cold and I was sleeping with her in a chair. Wish I could say I was drunk ; )

I was eh about it, but then I was listening to Bill Simmons podcast (well, my husband was listening to it and I was in the room), and he and somebody (Chuck Klosterman maybe) were losing their minds about how so-terrible-it's-amazing it is, so I'm in. The cast is freaking hilarious. I will be completely bummed if it isn't over the top amazeballs.
And I have only heard a Taylor Swift song in commercials for her tour/album. Or if it's playing in a store, I guess. Until Kanye interrupted her, I confused her with Taylor Whatshisface who won American Idol. So thanks a lot, Kanye.
