I don't actually mind them, all that much. In their heyday performing on The X Factor, it was probably natural for a lot of people to hate them simply because of their ubiquity. Now that the fever has died down (at least in the UK - good luck, America!) and their musical ability has been examined more and more... I just can't hate them. They seem happy at what they're doing, and they're honest about their lack of musical/dance talents - which I appreciate - but they're not hopeless, by any means. And while their voices aren't amazing, they're tolerable enough when given the right material. So they're bland and kinda forgettable... but that's pretty much it. I don't wish death upon them, as they've done nothing bad enough in a musical (or a moral) sense to offend me all that much.
