Ow Darrin, I'm sorry you're feeling that way !
But I'm afraid it's a reality you just have to face : different people
like different things. There's no way you can expect everyone to like
the same things as you do.
I'm one of those "Harry-haters" that trouble you so much. And do you
want to know why I "hate" him so much ? Simply because so many other
posters openly adore him too much for my taste :-) I find Harry OK
most of the time, but I don't like him really. In real life, he
wouldn't be one of my friends, for sure. So when I come here, and I
read posts that basically say "Harry is the best, he's a thousand
times better than anyone else, he's perfect and how can anyone dare
find fault in him", well, I get... annoyed ;-)
But I grant those people the right to love and adore Harry as much as
they want, as long as they let me criticize him if I want. They get on
my nerves sometimes, I'm sure I get on theirs once in a while, but
that's the rules of the game, and we need to be OK with that or we
won't get anywhere.
