People who are so critical of everything they can't enjoy anything.
I keep butting heads with forum people talking about movies and anime, and what they actually admit to liking is such a narrow list of "Oh, you probably have never heard of it" type titles that I wonder why they bother trying anything if they're just going to break out the electron microscope of cynicism and claim, despite what you might infer from the glossy surface, it's fecal matter underneath. If you challenge anything they do admit to liking you end up wading through a firing squad of condescending walls of text arguments about why you're both wrong and utterly lacking in taste.
Seriously, I suggested that Oshii's interpretation of Shirow's Ghost in the Shell had a feminist subtext, I think being mauled by a bear would be less jarring. Apparently opinions are fine, so long as you're willing to type a graduate thesis paper in support of your position. I watched the Ghost in the Shell movie years ago, I didn't exactly take notes. I'm willing to admit that's my interpretation, they however, are not despite claims to the contrary. I said I loved Suisei no Gargantia despite some of its problems, boy was that a mistake. I even dared to praise Evangelion for being entertaining and holding significance in anime as a whole, apparently Anno is a hack and NGE couldn't be more irrelevant.
So basically, I hate women and small animals. I'm too tired to disagree..
