I come across the "Move to Iceland" blog. The guy out there hates RubyOnRails, but he explains very well why he hates RoR. In his post "I hate Ruby on Rails", he says:

Coding in RoR is like talking to a intelligent, beautiful woman. Coding in PHP is like talking to a pretty but stupid girl. Coding in ASP.NET is like trying to explain quantum mechanics to a miserable failure.


Yeh, try to google for "intelligent beautiful woman", you will see who she is. RoR is not that.
