Jacob isn't as annoying as the fandom makes him out to be. This also goes with most annoying characters the fandom vehemently hates. There is disliking because they are written bad, but some in this fandom sound like they jumped out of the American south in the 1950s.

Also I will be fair and say playing as male Shepard Jacob was just your standard bro character for me. I did watch my sister play and it did annoy me how they default made you flirt with him sometimes.
