'cause I do, but I've heard a lot of people say that they don't and that they think everyone is annoying/stupid. That's not how I feel about other people, though. I think everybody has something good to contribute to this world, and I like people in general quite a lot.

I am usually not a fan. However, I do like the people in this boards a lot.

Oh god no, people are horrible.

FUCK NO

There are many individuals that I like, but as a species I'd burn 'em.

I tend to at least try to like most ppl.

In large groups or as individuals. I tend not to like small groups.

I like individual people just fine- Bates, Kong, Tyesa, Joslynn, Ashley, Ruby, Rachel- you know, one person.

I also like some people in small cliques, like the little group of myself, Bates, Kong, Joslynn, and Ashley. We are much more entertaining together than on our own.

Bigger groups- democrats, Republicans, the People of Pike County- make me want to kill puppies.

Nations are a little better, sometimes. I love Ireland, Canada, the UK, Germany, etc.

The species as whole. . . Makes me want nuclear launch codes so this place can start over without us.

I can honestly say I hate people. They band together to defend the stupidest things, yet snuff out the creative, the weak.

It's not just about the intelligence, oh no. If anything, intelligence is a teeny tiny little irk I have with humans. People literally stomp out the weak. The nice kid's bad at football? LET'S MAKE HIM THE BUTT OF ALL OUR JOKES. Oh look, he has no friends, it's all HIS fault, let's go rub that in his face.

But what's worse is when large groups of people fuck around. Vietnam was a goddamn fucking mess, but Johnson sent out the troops anyway. And people say he killed Kennedy to do it! WMD, George? Bull-fucking-shit, you chimp. You just want more oil and conflict, and "vengeange" for 9/11. Nevermind the fact Barack killed Osama for you, the WMD thing was a crock of shit from day 1 (classic scaremongering, donkeyfucker) and you killed a shitload of innocent people, Americans and foreign civilians alike. Fuck you and your now thankfully voted-out government.

Humans are fucking bastards. Sure, there are the good guys, but they're trapped under shit so deep they're drowning in it. Fuck humanity, fuck the world and fuck the public school system.

...Well, in my opinion anyway.

Except your opinion is misanthropic and if you only look out for yourself, you end up supporting worse things than they did.

People can be pretty cool, yeah. Enough to offset the people who aren't, in my opinion.

This is pretty much how I feel about it, really

I envy the Doctor; I meet dozens of people every day who are merely moving compost.

Yeah, looking in the mirror must be hard for you. (*Sorry, it was obligatory*)

It's an abstraction, so I don't really feel much about it.

The awesomeness in the mirror keeps me going. Though that is only seeing one person repeatedly, rather than meeting dozens.

Depends on the people. I can't generalize saying "I don't like people", because there are people I hate and people I love.

In general though, fuck yeah Humanity.

No! Every time I hear how many people there are in this planet I feel sick. But people can be useful, if you learn how to use them, and that gives me the force, even if not the light side of it *insert Darth Vader theme here*

God, some of you people are disgusting with your attitudes toward others.

I like people. Some people are racists, sexists, and homophobes, but the good majority are hard-working and decent people who just try to live their daily lives.

Eh, I think generalizing from the few individuals you meet (and not even the good ones) to all of humanity, past present and future, actual and possible, isn't really an accurate way of looking at it. People are a lot of things, and thinking most people must always be trash is too pessimistic to be realistic, IMO. Call me a Pollyanna, but I really believe human potential is great.

And That's Terrible

Every person I meet has the potential to piss me off, just as much as they have the potential to become an amazingly close, trusted, cared-about friend.

So, no, I don't hate people in general. Specific people, I may dislike, but rarely hate.

However, at times, I do hate some of our societal constructs and attitudes toward things when in large groups.

sometimes I love people. Other times I hate them.

No in-between?
