I have to agree with some of those. I can't stand Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, and I really don't like Hoobastank either.

I can certainly agree about Hoobastank (well, they lost me with the name, really). And reality TV. I'm not even going to attempt this meme, because I honestly don't pay too much attention to what's popular, because IMO most of it is crap. I've never read the Narnia series and have no interest in doing so. I've never seen any Will Ferrell movies (though he was fine on SNL, especially his Dubya impersonation). I already hate Rap. I've read so many kids' books the past 8 2/3 years, I can't remember that titles of 90% of them. I've never watched Lost, or Desperate Housewives, and I might have watched American Idol once. Apparently I'm resolutely disinterested in popular culture.

Honestly, Harry Potter is probably the only "cultural phenomenon" I've got any interest in. I'm sure that's meaningful somehow :))

will echo your dislike of Will Ferrell.
But have to admit to loving the Chronicles of Narnia.
