Every programming language is a tool. As such it isn't good if used for the wrong job. PHP is amazing for simple services that don't need much aside from database/filesystem access. I love PDO and wish more languages had such a first-class database access implementation.
I wish more people gave PHP a chance and didn't just keep bagging on it. There are problems with the standard libs, but nothing that isn't bearable. Grab an IDE and it's not an issue.
