A note on pop culture

I don't watch award shows, neither the Oscars nor the Academy Awards. I can barely tell which show is which. I am vaguely certain that one of them or the other is the Golden Globe, but fuck me if I know which.

Since I grew up sans TV, much of pop culture looks vaguely alike and vaguely boring. I can't tell any of the members of Boyband Du Jour apart, and I think that Britney Spears is pretty hot wearing that snake in that one thing, or at least she would be if she spelled better. I only know her name because it has been talked about so many times that I can't help but remember it. That Idiot Shawn was aghast that I did not know who Sean Connery was. (He asked me something about him, and I answered, "Who's that?" He asked me if I knew who Sean Connery was. I said no. I was technically lying -- I was vaguely sure that he was some famous actor or other.)

Heh. That seems to be one of the ways I learn who actors/actresses are, too. Sean Connery...yummmm....
