NFT: Popular things you know absolutely nothing about

santacruzom : 2/5/2016 11:00 pm
For me: MMA. If someone were to give me a list of 20 names and asked me which 5 among them were actual MMA fighters, I'd just be completely guessing.

Also, Twitter.

I'm only 34 but the other day at work I gave the 20-somethimgs a good laugh when I asked if anyone had heard about "Neil DeGrasse Tyson and his little war of words with some rapper named B.O.B" in relation to the latter claiming the world was flat and that the idea of it being a sphere was a conspiracy theory propagated by the Masons/Illuminati. The fact that I didn't know who BOB, as well as a bunch of other rappers were, literally caused a handful of people to laugh out loud. Oh well. Also apparently laugh-worthy is that I don't have a Twitter/Instagram/snapchat account and that I only use my cell phone for making phone calls.
All of the above

Seriously, there is so much popular culture of which I am unaware, that I know for a fact that I don't know what I don't know.

It would all be imagination and guessing.

For me it's celebrities. My wife and the women at my job can't seem to stop paying attention to who is saying who and which actress is wearing what. When they mention names I realize that I've never even heard of these people. Don't give a shit about celebrities or their personal lives.

Also don't really care about football players personal lives either

I tried to get interested, but it seemed like too much work. And I don't like
the idea that it would force me to root for or against players on teams I would normally not root for or against. So I just keep out of it.

I know just about squat about gambling. Someone approached me at work with some Super Bowl bets they had going on - beyond the basic boxes, I was completely lost.

Not any better at cards, either, although I can get by in a game of blackjack.

That's a good mention. I know nothing of poker vernacular, though I do think a lot of it makes no sense -- some of the slang actually has more syllables than the word it replaces. "Knock the table" instead of stand? It's shorter to say stand.
