I've only used java once in my life and that was enough to develop an irrational hate. That was shortly after i learned C.
The most annoying thing was that the smallest unit was a class. When you just want to write little things it looks "noisy".
As a beginner i thought that you really really needed an IDE to write java, so the idea of a programming language that "made me" use an IDE was awful. Having a crappy laptop doesn't help either.
The last thing was the bad apples of the local community, they were too loud and too arrogant to even consider approaching.

I second the "noisy" notion. I used to complain that it was so "chatty."
