Poll: Is pop-culture becoming less tolerable?

[Demons_Bane]

This question may be irrelevant but i felt compelled to see a reaction to such, in my opinion popular culture is deteriorating swirling the inside of the bowl ready to plummet if it hasn't already. What makes it even more intolerable is followers of popular culture and their indecent spend of opinionated evils all over the internet.
In comments what does Justin Bieber or whatever nonsense is in trend have to do with my youtube video?
Why would people when I had social networking insist on throwing their horrible fads down my throat ?

I would like all of your opinions, thank you for taking your time to read ^_^

Pop culture has always been 80% insipid.

If anything, MAYBE it's gone to 85% or so.

Popular culture is great. Obviously lots of people love it, hence the term "popular culture". If you don't like it, tell me what you're into, and then explain to me how that's not a part of popular culture. You're on this site for a start, that's popular culture.

You'll have to explain to me what an "indecent spend of opinionated evil" is before I can comment further on anything else you've said.

Poll is disastrously one-sided, all options besides "other" are either negative or apathetic. Where's the "popular culture is awesome" option.

No, you're just getting older and crankier.

I'd like to say that pop culture keeps getting dumber and that things were a lot better when I was younger, but then I realize two things:
1. I'd sound like every aging generation in the history of humanity.
2. I take a look back at what was popular when I was younger (for me, it was the 80s, a time of neon clothes, terrible home-permed hair, and new-wave music) and realize that I only enjoyed it because I was immersed in it during my impressionable years. Looking back now, it was all just as silly and ridiculous as anything today.

If we really decide to be honest with ourselves, pop culture is always about appealing to the masses, and you don't really accomplish that with thought-provoking artistic content.

Yes and no. More importantly who cares, trends are trends and they will pass, eventually.

That was rather embarrassingly profound.

Those are $130 headphones designed by Lady Gaga. They are not big over-ear headphones, nor are they anything that you couldn't get for $5. They are EARBUD headphones.

THAT is why popcult is becoming unbearable, when we have EARBUD headphones retailing for $130 because a celebrity attached her name and "image" to it.
