For instance it's a well know thing that my partner loathes Taylor Swift and a lot of people agree with her and sometimes people will request a Taylor song just to mess with her haha.
I get my digs in on the current state of the genre as a whole by saying things coming out of the new Alan Jackson song or others that are more traditional with things like "That's Alan Jackson... he sings what we call country music for those of us unfamiliar with the idea and/or under 20 years old."

All it takes to despise Taylor Swift is to hear her sing outside the studio. Hell, there are better singers than her in my daughters HS Ensemble.
I know some people will stone me for saying this, but to me the true watering down of Country Music started with Garth Brooks. His first couple of albums were great but after that I just lost interest.
And were it not for The Statlers, George Strait and Alan Jackson I might have abandoned Country Music.
