You know who I hate? Critics.
Any sort, really: literary critics, movie critics, restaurant critics, et cetera. Well, restaurant critics aren't that bad since rating service isn't too subjective, but...
They're getting paid to give their opinion. No one's opinion is better than that of anyone else. Just about everything entertainment-wise is subjective.
For example, Strange Journey got a 6/10 on Gamespot. Okay, it's the reviewer's opinion, whatever. While I disagree with some of his points (and by that I mean most), it's still subjective.
You may be able to tell I am trying to express my disapproval without being a hypocrite.

Reviewers are awesome people, live them alone!
Reviews are incredibly subjective though, I gave Baroque an 8/10 or something high. I loved the game, even if it was painfully impossible; yet, loads of other publications gave it like a 5.
Reviewers are like entertainers, you follow those who interest you. Even inside of Gamespot there are different types of writers who will have polar opposite opinions, both are right, but you know who's opinion you trust more.
Feel better now anyway. Work is still a collection of superfluous people who aren't deserving of the oxygen they breath. But hey, I'll get over it.
