Popular culture

Re. "Never edit any articles on popular culture. They're horribly overrepresented. You like them? You do them."  Gee, you might not make friends this way, but I admire your forthrightness.  I often find works of popular culture to be bleak and life-denying, so I see where you're coming from.

I once put into popular culture that claim that it's good that the Wikipedia has all this popular culture stuff in it, because we'll understand the people of the 21st century better if we document their cultural detritus with care.  Sort of like a biologist carefully dissecting an intestinal parasitethere's things we ought to know for scientific purposes, even if the research task is unpleasant.  Nice Ravenscroft, b.t.w..
