Actually, Mrs. Weasley also thinks that Gilderoy is the cat's 
pajamas.  That bugged me a lot that she and Hermione both fell for 
his pretty face without bothering to look closer and see that there 
was no gold behind all that glitter.

And yes, I dislike him too because he assumed Harry wanted to cash in 
on his fame because he, Gilderoy, had conjured fame out of dishonesty 
so he could cash in.

Clueless people who act like know-it-alls are very annoying.  

But kudos to JKR for writing the characterization so believably!
