At what age did you realize you felt out of place with "trends"?

At what age did you realize you felt out of place with "trends"?
I am curious about this question because it seems that I no longer seem to be interested or fit into many "trends". I still am aware of who's who and what may be fashionable or try and keep up with the latest music etc. But I also find that I don't like most of it.

Even here on Yahoo Answers, if I go into certain categories I'm only inundated with questions about Beyonce and Jay-Z, or what slim jeans go best with Ugg boots. What is the latest in Emo style haircuts and who are the Kardashians sleeping with this week. I don't know..... Or maybe, just maybe..... I don't care.....

I've reached that age that my parents were when I thought they were oblivious to the world and what I thought was important. I remember asking my Mother if she had heard the latest song by Madonna or making her watch some cool video on MTV, that she really couldn't care less about, but watched it because I was interested in it.

No we live in an age with the http://www.com's and the youths of my family always have a Youtube video that "I HAVE To See". And I watch it because they are interested.

So how old were you when these realizations hit you? When did you become your parents age?

For me the signs have been there since I was around 35, but the realization and awareness really hit home this year when I turned 42.
@StarrFyrre - That's what I'm talking about.... Even the responses I've received from people in their 20's, they don't get it and have no idea what I was asking.
