All about "punk" my ass...

1. Toby Keith
2. Sarah McLachlan
3. Now That's what I called music 14
4. Sheryl Crow
5. Outkast
6. Ja Rule
7. Rod Stewart
8. Clay Aiken
9. P.O.D.
10. Ludacris
11. Hilary Duff
12. Dido
13. Coldplay
14. Bon Jovi
15. Alan Jackson
16. 3 Doors Down
17. Eagles
18. Chingy
19. Nickelback
20. Beyonce

Only decent thing on there (that I've heard) is Outkast... Which is like the only rap group I can listen to because they don't sing all about cars and bling blings and women... And Andre is just so super...

Spongebob is pretty big here too, but I don't think it's very funny at all... I'm not big on cartoons in the first place though... I'd rather watch Inuyasha than a cartoon that tries to be funny... Well except maybe The Simpsons...

We already have Fellowship of the Ring and Two Towers (normal versions) on DVD because we're impatient bastards, but I think I'll pick up both extended editions eventually... But I'd rather get more Hiyao Miyazaki movies and 28 Days Later first...

And everybody should pick up the Upright Citizens Brigade season 1 on DVD...

Isn't spongebob for like little kids? if so, then yes, it is all the craze for little kids ages 3-7.

Jay-Z just realeased a new CD.. and so did G-Unit.. I expect some of their songs to be up in the charts in the next couple of weeks.

And elf was just released. Good movie.

Oh, and Hillary Duff is one solid 16 year old. Damn, she is so hot.

Anyway, I think that it is hard to put specific labels on what is big in the US because there are so many different "groups" of people. But pop culture is definately feeding off of reality shows like mad.

well, for starters, the word "hip" certainly isn't.

And DH, you should try listening to "Swollen Members" good rap group that aren't all about the things you talked about.

And Sarah McLachlan kicks ass. Voice of an angel.

I try to ignore the masses and live my own life...trends suck. Amongst my friends, the big things are PS2, Poker, Girls, Rock music, Movies, Sports, Family Guy and racism...

Reality shows definately rule the TV...and Sex sells, ALWAYS, EVERYWHERE.

Spongebob is a good cartoon, I've watched it before, but it's popular for the wrong reason. It's not the actual cartoon people like, it's the merchandise and out of context catch phrases. And older people misinterpret the child humor and instead laugh at stuff that isn't intended at all. Like the show portrays Spongebob and Patrick as best friends which they are but stupid teenagers and young adults laugh and think the two are gay partners or something. It's not normal cool though. It's more like teenagers/young adults who want be funny or wacky and childish but aren't and yet they try so hard that it just comes off as annoying and shows me they're idiots. It's just an innocent, good natured cartoon. And most older people that wear Spongebob clothing aren't cool, they're posers who are just wearing it because they want to be cool, not because they actually like the cartoon or support it.

Many Japanese people around here wear spongebob merchandise... it looks really bad.


And I remember when adults accused Ernie and Bert of being gay... THat was horrible.
