Default why do emotional players piss me off?

I'm not talking about the maniac who constantly bets and raises just for the sake of gambling. I'm talking about certain players who make plays just because they are wrapped up emotionally in the game.

usually what happens is a player is overcome by his emotions, and raises. you can see it in his face. he wants desperatley to win this hand. the raise isn't warranted, and in fact, is a bad play. but it stands a chance of costing me money if the wrong player catches the right card. I'm on a hand that I can't let go.

so since he made a bad play, why does it bug me? is it because I think he's burning my chips? or maybe it just bothers me that other players can't control their emotions. I can't put my finger on it, but I hate playing with these types.
