It also depends on the crowd you're in. I personally hate rap & hip-hop music, so I'm not going to be that popular in that sort of crowd. I have a major thing for coasters & theme parks, and I'll get along very well with those who share that interest.
Now at junior high & high schools, the kids are pressured & forced into liking something they probably wouldn't take an interest in on their own. If they resist, then they're cast out by the majority who go along with it. To that crowd I say value your interests & don't get pressured into going along with the crowd. You'll gain far more by guarding yourself & holding true to your heart than you think you'll lose.
