 The Pleasure of Hating
One of the great Romantic prose writers, William Hazlitt, once wrote an essay titled "On the Pleasure of Hating", which discusses what the title suggests.
My question to you is: Do you find there to be pleasure in hating? I mean, is there something pleasurable about the act?
As for me, I would say occasionally, I do get that feeling. It's not something laudable, but when has hatred ever been? But it's hard to deny that there is an occasion kick to be derived from it.

I realized that I don't hate anyone. Anyone I may hate is for a ridiculous reason that's probably not their fault.
I love everyone.

With what a limpid air it is that I tell you this: I find my hatred of you at present to be commensurate with the most exhalted exclamations of pleasure that any human being has been known to have expressed, either in the form of sexual revelry or in the form of a state of profound contemplation of the Primal Love's eternal moving of the heavenly spheres!

Ok. Shrek 2 made $441m.
What does that make you feel?
That feeling is called hate

I don't hate. I can be cranky and stir up stuff here a little. But I reserve all the hate I have for the famous.

I have a story.
Today this annoying creature leaves the classroom reading a book - ironically, Frankenstein - and comes back some time later, still reading. She frequently goes to the bathroom, so I decided to ask her if she took the book with her this trip. She responded no. I asked if she used the prologue as toliet paper. She insisted she was getting a drink and I was subsequently chastised for being so hateful. Now, I only see an immature joke here. Yes, I dislike her, and I was being an immature dick, but is this HATE worthy? Even blackmailing teachers and whatnot - one of my most favorite pastimes - isn't really a manifestation of my HATE for anything... So..
Well, I do hate hickerbillies and such. Can't stand them...

If we are friends, its because we're actually alarmingly evil and controversial control freaks who give ourselves too much credit on manipulating people based on our whim.

Oh jesus, never mind. Give me a canned response... like "We are friends because we come from the OverSoul! Yay for Starshine!"
Or something. I can edit it in and move on.
