Grandpa Simpson pretty much sums up the people I'm referring to.
It's really interesting going on the facebook wall of Triple J. Never have I seen so much vitriolic bile spouted by a lot of out of touch listeners, like Triple J should speak for them personally, and anything contrary is Triple J being "out of touch" or "lost the plot".
The plot really thickens when you read these long rants about how great Triple J was back in the day, and how Tom and Alex are a "bunch of fuckwits". I honestly think it's just a bunch of ageist nonsense, it's the over 30 contingent, (those on the edge of generation Y and older) taking potshots at Triple J because the world has moved on from the 90s and the 2000s. "Yeah man, Adam and Wil were the best back in the day", yes they were, but we've moved on.
