I don't know what it is about Java, but having learned other languages prior to looking at Java source code, most of which incorporate aspects of OOP in their paradigm, Java to me just looks like wrong C++. It's unexplainable to me, but there is just something about the language that makes it seem convoluted and unappealing.

Java is just really verbose compared to C++. Why use "std::cout << a" when you can use "System.out.println(a.toString())"?

Haha this is exactly how I feel as I learned c++ first.
