I hate Night Elf males. Hate them. They look terrible, sound terrible and exude a general air of utter obnoxiousness. And they don't even have the courtesy to have an entertaining death animation like the female of the species. They also attract players who all want to be (movie) Legolas and Drizzt.
The Blood Elves are pretty silly too, but they at least don't take themselves too seriously and the males are a hoot to kill with their "not in the face!" and dramatic grasping at the air death animation.
All the other races have merits and I like some better than others. Trolls are my favourite Horde race, Dwarves are my favourite Alliance race.

Horde are akin to the Native Americans (especially Tauren)
Alliance are like the New Americans (especially the humans)
I tend to view Alliance vs Horde as the Roman Empire vs the 'barbarians', a clash of empirical civilization against tribal foreign society.
The Alliance are, like the Romans, full of themselves and convinced they are just and proper, and anyone who is not them are there to be subjugated and have their lands, lives and culture removed. The Horde, like the Gauls, Britons and Goths are tribal, more chaotic (I also look at the clash in the Norse mythology way of Law vs Chaos, not Good vs Evil) but largely honourable, dedicated and stern of manner. There's a brutality in the Horde that matches nature, it's not always pretty and can sometimes seem cruel, but necessary.
Alliance seem much more underhanded, manipulative and dishonest than the Horde. When I played Alli I really felt like I was with the bad guys, with all the scheming machinations, deceptions and false nobility. Kinda like Rome.

Male Belfs, Male Nelfs (I think Nelfs have the most annoying death thing), female taurens (just fail, all that needs to be said), and dranei (half horse half squid?)
