I feel pretty connected to the world and tons of information through the Internet, but yet I’m still completely out of touch with popular culture. It’s 2:30PM the day after the Super Bowl and I don’t know who won (except of course I know the corporate advertisers won, as usual). I have no idea what Gangnam Style is. I have never heard Lady Gaga or Justin Bieber, at least not to my knowledge. I hate the word “nom” when people are talking about eating. I’ve never seen a Kardashian.
I’m not sure if I avoid all of those pop culture things because I’m contrarian or because I think they might give me soul-cancer.
But even thinking about them makes me reach for an extra dose of anti-oxidants:
Love,
