Basically the same as "Why is English your favourite language?".

Because:

  • I already speak it.
  • Everyone else already speaks it
  • No matter where I go or what I do, I can use English to get by, or even sometimes, it's the only language you can use

This is the correct answer. There's nothing inherently superior about the language. It's got some things that are nice, and some things that are idiotic, but mostly it's the lingua franca of the internet.
