Why do I hate everybody?

It seems that in recent years, I've just started to hate everyone by default. Not sure why, but I just feel that like 80% of humanity just sort of needs to...die off. I just can't stand seeing people everywhere I go...
When I meet someone new, I automatically just isolate myself from them and push them away, feeling distrust and annoyed. Sometime I wish I could just wave my hand and disintegrate everyone around me (nothing to do with WoW).
Additionally, nothing really surprises me/saddens me/delights me anymore, but I'm not sure why. It feels like the only emotions I have are either boredom or resentment.
No, I'm not trolling, and yes, I know it's not normal to feel this way. Has anyone else experienced anything like this before? I feel like I need to say more, but I'm not sure what at this point...
Sorry if this seems like a blog, but I don't really do this often.

I feel like I need to say more, but I'm not sure what at this point...First, I'm not a psychologist, but I do know some things. This is a classic symptom of depression. Most people tend to identify depression as overwhelming feelings of grief or loneliness when actually depression is a shutting down of emotional feeling.

Sometime I wish I could just wave my hand and disintegrate everyone around me (nothing to do with WoW). This makes it seem like you have some trust issues that you need to work out. It could stem from unhealthy relationships you've developed with others or some traumatic experience you had with someone close to you at a young age. It doesn't have to be anything out of the ordinary, either. A death in the family, something that inevitably happens to almost everyone, can easily traumatize you enough to cause problems like that.
Again, I'm no psychologist, so I could be missing something here either that you're not saying or that I'm misinterpreting - but it just seems like you may need to get out more. As someone who has suffered from depression in the past, I can tell you that the only thing that helped me was breaking down the social barriers I placed on myself and just getting out of the house. It doesn't have to be anything big at first- just take a walk for a little while a day, then move on to something a little more active like going to the movies with a friend. Real-life social interaction, for me at least, works wonders.

While I'm a bit reluctant to hand out medical advice on a public forum like this - I'm no expert after all - what you've described is pretty much textbook depression. You should definitely see a doctor, especially given the severity of your symptoms.

I used to hate everyone during my depressed phase. I got out of that, though, and no I just moderately dislike everyone.

I joke about hating humanity, but most of the time I don't really mean it.
I'd agree with HiVolt that it sounds like depression.

I just dislike people and I'm unbelievably intolerant with them, it's not
hate
rather than extreme dislike. ;) However, if you feel nothing then it might be depression.

You get the same feeling after being in IT support for a while.
