If you talk to coworkers with the same attitude and judgement you use here, I don't really blame them for wanting to keep you at arm's length. Do you want to see a change in your coworker's attitudes towards you? Be the change you want to see. If you want people to be friendly and approachable, you need to be the same way. If you are snotty and judgmental then you'll receive the same back, and in spades. Just a thought to keep in mind.

I was only there for a paycheck for sure,, not to make friends. All I was expecting was to be treated with kindness, respect, and common courtesy. I did not get that most of the time there.
When you say hi and bye to people, wouldn't it upset you to if they just sat there and stared at you like you were weird for even trying to talk to them? Who does that? Rude people, that's who. I'm not calling people names, I'm telling the truth about how they are. I'm being honest, not gossipping or being mean.
I'm not snotty or judgemental at all. I'm a very nice person. I just happen to be shy and introverted and if other people think that I'm snotty or weird for being that way, then that's their problem and there's nothing that I can do about that.
Who calls people fat in their presence? I did nothing to that girl. And who laughs at someone who tries to say hi to them? So who's the rude, snotty and judgemental person now? Of course it's them. I'm not being mean, that's what they are, mean and snotty. I did nothing to them at all, so why would they be so mean? They didn't even give me a chance. So I started ignoring them back after awhile. Wouldn't you if all you got were weird stares or the people that you tried to be nice to would just flat out ignore you and not even look at you? I bet you would do the same thing.
