How crucial do you think it is to understanding "pop culture" stuff, in terms of forming friendships? (As in: Knowledge in Popular Movies, TV Shows, Video Games, Books, Songs, Music, Anime, etc...) (sh.itjust.works)

I remember this kid in highschool that, when I asked what was his favorite movie or TV shows, he said he never really watched much stuff before. Like... I ask him about piracy, I forgot what he answered but it was something on the lines of "idk", dude doesn't have a netflix and never figured out piracy... So um... yea, strict parents sheltering him... I guess... so that's why we never really "clicked".

To be fair, I wasn't exactly the most outgoing person, but like I could do some amount of random conversations, I know common topics to talk about.

I don't know if it's a symptom of getting older, but I can tell you that pretty much every time I've hung out with friends in the last few years the conversation eventually devolves into what we've been watching.
