It was a disgrace. F-uck grunge and f-uck Seattle. Ten times worse than Detroit.

Pardon me if I beg to differ on this point, but Grunge isn't as bad as you make it to be. At least not the early form of the genre in respects to bands linked closely to music scene in Seattle during the late 80s and early 90s or bands who music was influence by early Grunge. One mistake people often make is to place all Alternative Rock during the 90s under the epithet of Grunge. I'm not sure if you're victim of this misunderstanding, I hope you're not. It just seems you despise Grunge because of the more derivative forms that followed, and hence making your disdain for it retro-active. I think if your somewhat familiar with Rock music and it's many sub-genres that preceded (e.g. Hard Rock, Punk, Heavy Metal etc and bands like The Beatles etc) you could form some small appreciation for Grunge bands like Nirvana, and Pearl Jam.
