PDF (Score:1)

PDF is feeble. Adobe was managing a semblence of competence for a while, until they tried to turn PDF into crack-head DHTML. PDF and Flash are in a race to the bottom, to get to be the Worst Case Scenario for the Web.

  I have a deep hatred for flash, mainly as it is used for eye candy to cover up glaring design deficiencies.
  PDF's existance I can forgive, for one reason only. If I am going to print something (reading long PDFs causines my brain to melt) it seems to work quite nicely.
