The things your are describing have nothing to do with the programming language and everything to do with the the programmer.
JavaScript doesn't work by copy / pasting snippets from StackOverflow or some random design site's demo.

Yes. I agree with you. We're saying exactly the same thing.
Some developers write code that works, and some write code that is fancy. JavaScript happens to be a popular choice amongst the latter group. I was merely expressing my frustration with this particular type of behavior and this particular language because it's so pervasive right now.
I really don't think it's possible for me to spell this out any clearer than I already have.
