1 : a theory that ultimate reality lies within a realm subcribing to the commonplace, ordinary or bitchin. If five others are doing it, it must be hot!
2 : the practice of forming your ideals or living under the influence of what other people are doing, or consider cool at any given moment.
3 : literary or artistic theory or practice that affirms the preeminent value of whatever is popular with the general public at a specific time and place, regardless of how silly a given trend may be, or how short it may last, and how foolish you will feel when it's over.
