You don't even know 56 bands? Well that's great, but I do. Saying that you haven't herd of a book, band, or movie doesn't say much. The world is a diverse place - there is simply too much out there to assume that what you personally recognize is meaningful. Additionally, I would argue that a person's family and religion may be the most important facets of their life. "Too much information" is when a person's complete sexual history finds it's way online, not when they post their faith. What was the point of this article? You are amazingly judgmental.

"A Clockwork Orange" and "Eternal Sunshine" are both incredible movies. The fact that they're constantly watched in film classes means that they're obviously favorites movies for someone.Your determination to stereotype constantly is unnerving. Perhaps they actually are intelligent. It happens, you know. Just because someone doesn't put "OMG GOSSIP GIRLS!!!!!!" in their Favorites section doesn't mean that they're pretentious. “Additionally, it should be a red flag when someone lists a movie like “A Clockwork Orange” or “Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind.” Clearly, this person is attempting to seem intelligent.”
