something that's so terrible that stuck with you as an exemplar of what not to do.

Twitter's UI is fundamentally dysfunctional after iterations of poor design and conversion optimization. I mean, I use the damn thing everyday as a reader and it still confuses and annoys me.
Pretty crazy that the header UI still breaks on desktop Chrome for me when I try to scroll up with a video playing, and when my window gets too wide, the banner image stops expanding and just attaches to one side. These are core components of their most important product surfaces. I'm actually completely baffled as to how they have stayed like this for so long.
Time Warner Cable/Spectrum for paying my internet bill.

How do you: 1. Make it that hard for me to give you my money. 2. Don't even immediately process payments, leaving me confused as to whether I paid you.

But, they have a monopoly for my building, so that's life.
