If you want to be considered part of "people in general", then I'd suggest becoming familiar with a few (self-described) popular shows! If spending my precious free time on an activity that I find to be enormously boring is a condition for being considered a peer by people who're so devoted to an activity that I find to be enormously boring that they're not sure how to interact with me in a way that doesn't revolve around said activity that I find to be enormously boring, then I suppose that's fine. Seems a bit unfortunate that anyone should be so devoted to one thing out of a whole universe of activities and topics, but if they really don't have anything else to talk to me about, then I suppose I probably won't have anything to talk to them about that would interest them, either. :)
