To put it jokingly, &amp;quot;it&amp;#x27;s not all about you&amp;quot;.&lt;p&gt;Not to mention that far from &amp;quot;narrow-minded pop-culturist bullshit&amp;quot; the whole post drives endlessly the inverse notion.&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;what society thinks of you&amp;quot; is what (according to the post) ends at forty: society doesn&amp;#x27;t think anything of you, -- it could not give less fucks, to use your wording. And part of the idea is that you should care even less, and instead (cynically or not) become a culture-maker yourself, selling truth to the younger generations.&lt;p&gt;It doesn&amp;#x27;t apply to everybody. In fact people content with work, family life, and 3 hours of TV&amp;#x2F;browsing everyday until they die at 80 won&amp;#x27;t even understand the thing.</text><parent_chain><item><author>dasil003</author><text>I&amp;#x27;m close to 40, and working in Silicon Valley it makes me feel old every day, but I&amp;#x27;ll be damned if I&amp;#x27;m ever reduced to this sort of narrow-minded pop-culturist bullshit mode of thinking.&lt;p&gt;What does &lt;i&gt;society&lt;/i&gt; think of me?

I think the OP takes a wrong turn in thinking &amp;quot;meaning&amp;quot; arises in relationship to &amp;quot;society&amp;quot;, and declaring that &amp;quot;meaning is a game.&amp;quot;  Society is a game.  As people grow up and find their own individual meaning in their pursuits and relationships, they stop caring so much about society and may sign out of the game completely.&lt;p&gt;The majority of people over 40 are not out there &amp;quot;making meaning&amp;quot; (the author&amp;#x27;s terminology for &amp;quot;influencing pop culture&amp;quot;), and that&amp;#x27;s just fine.</text><parent_chain><item><author>dasil003</author><text>I&amp;#x27;m close to 40, and working in Silicon Valley it makes me feel old every day, but I&amp;#x27;ll be damned if I&amp;#x27;m ever reduced to this sort of narrow-minded pop-culturist bullshit mode of thinking.&lt;p&gt;What does &lt;i&gt;society&lt;/i&gt; think of me?
