People Break Down Who They Have A Completely Irrational Hatred For

Hard as we might try, not everyone is meant to be friends with one another.

Sometimes, people have just basic compatibility issues that prevent them from ever becoming particularly close.

Which doesn't mean they necessarily dislike each other... most of the time.

In some cases, people find others so resistible that the word "hate" comes swiftly to mind.

When asked why people hate certain individuals or types of people, however, they find themselves at a loss for words as to why.

Likely owing to the fact that they don't have a single justifiable reason.


Redditor Pachuko_Cadaver was curious to hear the people or types of people, real or fictitious, that simply can't stand, leading them to ask:
"Who do you irrationally hate for no good reason?"

...Oxymoron?...

Some people are just impossible to comprehend, for reasons we just can't quite put our fingers on.

But rather than try and figure it out, sometimes it's easiest just to say "I hate them", and leave it at that.
