I'm guessing this is down to my "vanduard players nark me off" comment.
MMO players don't, it's just the VG fan boys who heralded the game as the second coming of Everquest. Out pops the game, bug ridden, half completed and.... crap, that's the only word you could use for it at release, and then refused to back down on their earlier comments just shifting them to say "if you don't like it it means you can't handle the w00tness" or whatever drivvle it was they gave as justification for wasting $20 a month.

What a stupid topic. But I'm strangely compelled into writing up a list:
hate:
-Frat Boys. F**king d**kheads
-People who try to fit in even if they're out of their comfort zone.
-Customers that constantly ask for discounts.
-'Gangstas'. Also known as 12 year old pre-pubescent f**kwits that need to realize they're not gangstas but more along the lines of morons.
-Jocks who think they're awesome because they play football in highschool and all that. Pretty soon they'll be bagging my Groceries.
-My Dad (pretty much my only true hate).
-Cheaters.
All I can think of right now.

lol lets go
- Emos (will this fad die already!!)
- Cheaters (I agree with you Frozencry), so put my ex girlfriends in this list
- Scientologists (this "church" of taking your money needs to be gone, so many people suckered into it)
- Holden Commodores (everytime I see a commodore with the sticker "on the seventh day god created holden" I always want to play a sticker under it saying "....and he has regretted it ever since")
- Eshays (wannabe "gangstas" who talk in Pig Latin and think you dont understand when they say "oll ray im hay")

do you have the Ford/Falcon equivalent sticker over east too?
they seem far more prevalent here than the Holden ones.
them and the Calvin (from Calvin and Hobbes) pissing on either the Ford or Holden logo.
in all honesty, the Falcon is probably the only car i've ever disliked. i had a couple when i first started driving and had nothing but dramas from both the cars themselves, and the people who repair them, not to mention the absolutely hideous AU Falcon line.
i quite like the BA and BF Falcons though, they look nice. i'm quite interested in what the "Orion" model will end up like.
i haven't really been too fussed by Commodores in appearance or otherwise until the VE. i really like the VE Commodore's aesthetic, although i think it's hugely influenced by mid-to-late 90s Japanese cars, especially the R34 Skyline.
i've never really bought into the whole Holden vs. Ford thing we have here, i suppose it's probably because the V8 Supercars is one of the few motorsport competitions i don't really care for - i just find the whole thing boring when it's so limited and restricted. oh for a return to the Australian Touring Car Championships of old, with more variety in cars.

Anyway, here it is:
-Cold Weather (I'm a summer guy)
-People who hate people from a certain country because of a war that happened 100s of yrs ago
-When I poor boiling water from the kettle onto my hand (it happens more often than you would think)
-All the crappy, captain-obvious type things people post that they hate
-People who put down emos, or anybody for that matter (and no, im NOT an emo)
-Racism
-People who think that EVERYTHING is racism
-Political Correctness
-People who hate fat people
-People who have no self control and make insensitive fat jokes to fat people
-When my internet connection stuffs up
-Shopping (WHY do girls love this so much???)
-Shoe shopping (even worse than normal shopping)
-Attention seekers
-People who flaunt how superior when they are actually just an imbecile
-Your Mum/Dad/Sister/Brother jokes
-SBS
-People who put down people with low self-esteem (don't they know that will just make things worse?)
-Coffee that has too little or too much sugar/coffee in it.
-Batteries not included (whoever originally said this, I totally agree)
-Stereotypes (blonde does not equal dumb!)
That's about all I can think of.
No, wait!
-Those flying insects with the huge green bums that bite you
That is all.

I agree with a lot of the hate's posted by FrozenCry
Here are a few of my own hates
Telstra
The reason I am on dial up now and will probably be till I move out of home.
Extreme Piercings
Belly button, private parts and tongue piercings are extremely disturbing IMO and I can't stand them. Especially when the studs are way oversized.
Compaq Presario Laptops
Three of my friends have these laptops and I think they are the cheapest excuse for a laptop. Touch buttons are awful too.

I'm not gonna elaborate on that one dragonfly, I'll make myself look very shallow and stupid.
Obs, while I am a Holden man, I'd happily swap to Ford for a nice XR6 Turbo. I'm a fan of both the VE and the BA/BF models, and its questionable as to whether either company really makes quality cars. Its more the standard V6 models that I hate. The V8s and Turbos I'd happily buy.
You'd be better off getting a Toyota or a Honda anyday, but it really comes down to personal preference.

-Cold Weather (I'm a summer guy)
-Political Correctness
-Batteries not included (whoever originally said this, I totally agree)
-Stereotypes (blonde does not equal dumb!)
I'll take these straight from Dragonfly, since they're on my list too. 
Also:
- Stores that sell everything for RRP, and never seems to discount it (EB is generally a good example)
- Sales people who have no idea what they're talking about.
-Things that require self assembly.
- People who advertise fake stuff on Ebay.
- People who try and sell things for more than the RRP.
- Religious extremists.
- People who give their kids toy guns (it's not right, and a bad influence).
- Bus drivers who drive off just as you race towards the bus stop (and you know they can see you).
That's about all I can think of right now.
I don't hate people who play MMOs a lot (such as WoW), I just don't understand them that well. Then again, I know all about video game addiction.

BTW Dragonfly93, I don’t hate fat people. I hate stupid people that allow themselves to be fat when they could easily do something about it.
Another one:
People who can’t take a joke, but are happy to make fun of others

^^^ All of that. And:
- Failures, especially if they complain about it. If you didn't bother in school, you don't deserve a good job, nuff said.
- Royal Mail, they've got the most shambolic service of all postal companies I've ever used.
- Warm weather, I like winter, cold and snow and stuff.
- American sitcom clichés, as can be seen by watching any episode of any comedy created since Seinfeld.
- Football, and football fans, ridiculous sport for ridiculous people.
- Workers unions, which give too much power to people like, for example, Royal Mail postmen, who selfishly take days off in protest ruining businesses and people's birthdays and stuff.
That'll do. I've had to cut a lot out already...

Toy guns are awesome, do you honestly think that they are a bad influence ? Im sure 99.9999999999% of kids will grow out of them by the age of 10. The other 0.0000000001% was probably messed up so they're going to end up criminals anyway

Cold weather, anything under say 27 during the day and it's chilly for me. Townsville just had it's coldest day ever a couple of weeks ago, 13.8 degrees, hated it so much.
Smokers who have no respect for others ie. throwing butts out the window and setting fire to garden beds, people who smoke at bus stops etc. Glad I live in QLD with the law against smoking in most public place, I wouldn't be able to stand going to the footy being smothered in smoke.
Parents who have nothing better to do than scream at their kids all of the time.
Birds that wake me up in the morning (I live next to a park where all the lorikeets and kookaburras hang out).
When Canterbury loses
Rude people who decide to have a chat right in the middle of the aisels at the shops.
Customers who hand me five dollars worth of cash in the form of 5 and 10 cent coins, especially when it's busy.
Customers who demand a discount for something that was accidentally put in the wrong place, even though the price tag has which product the price is for written on it, then argue and threaten to report us to consumer affairs, which will do nothing as we don't come under supermarket laws which is where they are getting their arguments from.
That Richard guy on The Today Show, the one from America who does a "gossip" report.
Biased refs when I play sport.
NoAu a lot of the time.
Having no money.
Getting paid on Friday, when I need money NOW!
Plus much more which I shall add later.

Well, I don't think it's a good thing to teach kids that guns are toys, that's all. They're extremely dangerous weapons, why would you want your kid to even have a toy one?

Because it teaches them how to get really really good at FPS games in the future and become a WCG contender.

I remember my dad had a toy gun in a drawer in the garage when I was young. I used to sneak down with the key unlock the drawer and play with it when he wasn't around. I was only young and I knew I wasn't allowed to.
The second time I got caught playing with it dad got real, REAL angry and put it somewhere else.
Needless to say it was a real gun, although I only realized that a few years ago. He's got rid of it now.
I've also had a couple of cap guns as a kid.
They're just toys.
I'd have to say that playing with guns as a child has not made me want a gun, my parents were against guns and me having toy guns, but that didn't stop me from playing with them.
Guns are stupid, toy guns were fun.
Guns don't kill people, people kill people.

Cars take more lives than guns in Australia each year AFAIK. Quick! Ban toy cars, they could give kids the wrong ideas.
Animal cruelty is a serious issue, better stop producing stuffed animals lest the kiddles start thinking its okay to throw real animals at each other.
Fun can lead to danger, outlaw it!
Toys =/= Reality. If child grows up without learning that distinction then the parents have failed at their job.
