It all goes back to the "is this a journal"/"is this a message board" issue. I have multiple personalities in this regard; some days my journal is a journal and I record events in my life there, some days it's a message board and I all I do is squee with my friends about Lost. And some days I'm influenced by said friends to try a new show, so I hope to download and catch up on Supernatural this weekend. ;)
I like the fact that LJ can be more than one thing at a time. I don't judge my friends for "journaling" about RL, nor do I get annoyed when they over-squee (LOL). I hate that not-so-subtle criticism you're talking about. If someone has something to say they should just say it outright, and if they choose not to do that they should shut up and move on.
