Omochao; Why do people hate him?

I noticed a while ago that Omochao gets a whole hell of a lot of flak that doesn't seem quite deserved. I mean, he's not like Navi who will constantly nag at you no matter what you do: In SA2, if you wanted him to keep quiet, all you had to do was not touch him. Sure, in Sonic Rides his commentary could get annoying, but even then you had the option to turn it off.

I personally found him to be an okay character. He had his moments, his voice was great in Free Riders, and he's also really fun to draw. (Of course, abusing him is also fun) I don't see what's so unlikeable about him.

So basically: What do people hate about Omochao? What makes him so unbearably annoying that he's among the most hated characters in the Sonic franchise. (right up there with Big, Silver, and Elise, the latter of which I don't really like myself, but that's not important :P )

LIES! LIES! LIESLIESLIES!!!

Anyway, about Homochao,

I like him too. Even though his SA2B voice might get annoying, if I want him to stop, I'll toss him off the cliff.

If there isn't a cliff, I'd put up with it.

Hell, he might say something you don't even know.

I don't think most of the fanbase dislikes Omochao, so much as they love to hate him. Like the Omochao Launcher. SEGA knew what the fans wanted. As if we WANT him in there, but would never admit it. You don't see people giving SA2 a bad review because they don't like Omochao, even though he is a pivotal character. I do that with Big. He doesn't really have as much hate as Shadow or Silver.

Well, what pissed me off about navi was more that her "advice" was never actually helpful in any way.

The thing with omachao is that I would always run into him by accident, I think they should have made you grab him to activate him.

Ya got me! Personally, I thought he was kinda funny. Some of the stuff he said when you abused him in SA2 made me lol. :D (Shooting him with Tails and Robotnik was pretty enjoyable. >=3 )

But, I don't really have a problem with him. At least he didn't shout 'SONIC!' in a very annoying voice. (Sorry Chip, I love ya in the cutscenes, but when it comes to giving hints, I'd prefer a different character.)

That was my problem. More often than not, I ran into Omochao on accident. Omochao was less of a nuisance as a commentator, but I could live without knowing "He's gaining momentum" (wait, I was playing a female character... :P )

Omochao is not that annoying. Sometimes though, in SA2 he would get in the dang way and that would annoy me. And who is "Navi"

Oh Omochao. All I can say is I got great memories from him in SA2 Battle. He cracked me up XD I remember hurting him and just running away before he starts whining (although I did enjoy hearing it for some reason.) He was too funny. But yeah, honestly, though he was annoying I really enjoyed his company.

"Im sorry, I understand. I will eat all my carrots."
Fix'd for ya.

And yes, abusing him then running away was quite fun.

There was one point where I was playing Meteor Herd and Omochao was hit by a meteor.

...Then blamed me for it. XD

I didn't mind Omochao, though some of his advice was pretty useless.

When exactly does he say that? I forget.

On the first level after you get off your board.

Now that I think about it having it there makes sense sort of, but who honestly wouldn't know that?
