Javascript is actually a nice language. It just has 3 problems. 1. MS and Netscape used it as the browser wars' battleground. 2. Many decided it needed to be superficially more like other langs. 3. It provided an easy on ramp to web programming, resulting in a legacy of really bad code.

#3 is the biggest reason everyone hates it. It's also done a lot of damage to programming as a profession.
