knowing about phones and mp3 player is pretty sad....
know many people who are interested in talking about it at length? no?

can't say the same about football and bands.

mystery solved. find some like-minded people to talk about that stuff with and shut up.

You clearly have access to the Internet, there's a whole virtual world full of people who DO like to know that sort of thing.

Or, you know, learn something useful- like how to write programs for those phones. You ever know, you might end up being called a sad bastard by someone who's searching for the football results using an app you wrote!

Edit: Also, isn't Java the "in" langauge at the moment? Learn Cobol and try not grow a beard while you do it, or learn C and find out how to write quick, powerful, programmer-friendly apps.
Hell, learn VBA and learn how to automate your various tasks at work.
