What exactly is a RetroGrouch...?

Hey, a little off topic but yeah, does anyone have a definition of this..? I couldn't seem to find one on-line. I like the word and the implied meaning though, 'tis funny. It seems to be used often by cyclist, computing/linux communities and others...

Your thoughts on this? What makes one a RG, are there different categories or RG's? Does one have to be a RG in various fields to qualify or is just cycling or computing or..... enough?

The Protoganists in the the movie "High Fidelity" could be classed as RG's in the music field i am guessing..

I supposse i'll come out of the closet: I am guessing i am a RetroGrouch as i am a self proclaimed "Evil Priest of Brooks" saddles, wished most people used a Tange Levin Headset and my main ride is a 20 to 35 year old Raleigh Twenty (though it sports many modern parts including the anti retro Nexus three speed hub).
