why does java suck?

I've noticed in the short time I've been reading this board that there's a lot of java bashing, so I was wondering why people actually think it is so bad. I'm no java fan, but I've used it for some stuff before and it didn't seem terrible to me. An argument used to be that it runs slow as a guro-fied loli, but they've improved a lot in that aspect.

Please give good reasons, rather than stuff like "it's for certified professional consultants" or whatever you guys say.

Just to clarify, I'm >>61 and I'm not a java fanboy. But using acronyms like KISS is still fucking gay.

Also, my question about generics was not meant to imply that java is awesome because it has generics and no one else does. It was just a question. Because I actually didn't know.
