I don't have a problem with somebody disliking something if that's how they genuinely feel. But one of the unspoken rule of social etiquette is that people who dedicate so much time and energy to hating something (ANYTHING) are regarded as unpleasant. Most normal, happy, sane people simply ignore things that they don't like, but which don't directly affect them. Does anyone, for instance, miss that dude Sillybunz who got banned a few weeks ago? All he ever did was complain about how much he hated stuff.

One of my personal pet peeves is slow drivers in the left lane, and I admit that when I encounter them, I curse them and find myself wishing my car had retractable GPMGs so that I could light 'em the fuck up. But once I'm not being slowed down by them anymore, I forget about them and don't dwell on it all day. Nor do I feel a need to get on Internet message boards and bitch constantly about how much I hate slow drivers in the left lane.
