i'm with her. i knew anyway here's wonderwall meme before i ever heard the song, and when i finally listened to it i was in my early twenties. didn't inspire me to listen to their other songs.

i'll be even more honest. although i listen to the gorillaz and some blur songs, i don't know the blur v oasis thing. i know the brothers are dicks to each other and i think i remember reading something damon said about one of them. i need the tl;dr

it was friendly banter until the media started to purposefully igniting both bands against each other and then suddenly it wasn't friendly anymore. Noel said some pretty nasty things (he wished blur would get AIDS and die) and then Damon moved the release date of their new single to be on the same day of Oasis new single, history was made.

there's a Netflix show called "This is Pop" where they talked about the battle and other Britpop acts in an episode, you should check it out!

Just to add to your very good tl;dr, it's probably worth mentioning Noel and Damon seem to be on good terms now. I think Liam's was still playing things up recently, though it doesn't seem to be truly malicious.

they're older now, plus i don't think they really hated each other that much. it was definitely played up for the media imho. noel always said that graham was the only blur member he liked.
