You need to relax on the analogy. Consider - why does someone look at a box of pizza and decide that it tastes bad? Why does someone looking to buy a watch walk past a jewelry store? From the app preview alone, I can tell you that there is nothing really standing out here. Why do I want to share anonymous pictures of Katy Perry? If I want to share anonymous pictures, I already know of Snapchat. If I want to share anonymous text with a random group of people, I'll use Yik Yak or Secrets. If I want to share photos, I can use Facebook or Flickr. I can make an 'anonymous' account on Flickr to share photos. Why do I want this app on my phone?

You need to work on the pitch a bit more. Just throwing together the words "anonymous" and "pictures" doesn't do it for me. Also, try not to take it so hard. When you said "Jesus Christ man...", I got the impression that you were taking this pretty rough. It's nothing personal, but in a world with so many apps already, why should I add your app to my home screen? Why should I spend another 10 minutes a day with this app?
