Because they're so darn inconsistant; and you can't debug 'em.

    I remember an old Peanut's cartoon. Lucy replies to someone in a loud
    voice, "I love mankind. It's people I can't stand."

    Not much to disagree with there.

    re .2, yes, one of my best friends used to have that poster on her
    bedroom wall, about 20 yrs. ago.  It had Linus with his blanket and
    then "I love mankind.  It's people I can't stand."  Actually, I think I
    may feel just the opposite.  I love people.  It's mankind I can't
    stand.  (not mankind as in *men* but mankind as in the entire human
    race)  I mean I love people more when I deal with them as individuals
    than I do the entire human race when I read history and the news and
    realize what horrible things humans have done to each other.  The
    overall picture can be appalling but as individuals people can be a lot
    of fun.

Reminds me of the scene in Barfly where Wanda (Faye Dunaway) first
meets Henry (Mickey Rourke).

Wanda:  I hate people.  Do you hate people?

Henry:  No, but I seem to feel better when they're not around.

    is this a line from a 'mats tune?
    
    
    anyways....sometimes i feel this way, but others just can't
    seem to understand how i get there...........and they make 
    the mistake of trying to convince me that i'm wrong........

Absolutely! I've been trying to debug my husband for
quite a while. And do you think he appreciates it?
Not one damn bit.
