Your most hated style (obvious flamebait)

What style do you hate the most and why?

Oh, I don't hate styles ... I dislike some people in some styles. And in that case it's more about the individual than what they do.

Although -- I'm not holier-than-thou. There are styles out there that, with a little education & investigation, can be clearly seen as frauds or at least highly questionable. Those get me a bit ruffled.

Hmm, Hate's a strong word. How about.. Style I'd least like to spend time learning?

In that case, I'd least like to spend time learning Tae Kwon Do.

Why? It just doesn't suit my body type, I've got "short man's reach" syndrome.

So TKD and most striking arts are just non-optimal for the old hazbody.

LMAO.... I don't hate any styles out there. Just want to see how they perform during the nitty gritty. Other than that, it's all just talk.

I saw something really stupid last week...
some kinda nunchuka freestyle act that won an European trophy of some sort
and the winner won because he added a into his routine...

I would really hate to do that...

Or is it the nappies that put you off!

I personally would hate to learn some flowery form of Kung Fu with zero application.

Well it's a good thing there are no kung fu forms named "flowery form with zero application."

Ju Jitsu does not put 350 pound fat A$$ people in diapers and then have them hug each other then grab the diapers and give the other person a weggy until they step out of the ring and call it a style.

<<I personally would hate to learn some flowery form of Kung Fu with zero application.>>

I don't think you have to worry about that.

Well, I guess this thread was intended to be a troll thread so you can't blame them for coming out from under the bridge.

Hmmm interesting Question. Well I guess My ansewer would be That I don't hate Any perticular Style.
Each one has is own significance to it.
If it diddin't It wouldn't be a style to begin with.
What I HATE is whether the Person is doing the Style wrong or making a mockery out of it.
I seen a Guy turn a style into a Comedy Skit...It was Bad and Real Slopy.
