I don't like regular expressions. Or rather, I don't like the mangled 
ASCII pea-soup typically used to /represent/ regexes. I have nothing 
against the formal /concept/ of a regular expression. I just dislike the 
lack of separation between commands and arguments. (And the fact that it 
looks like pea-soup!)

Apparently other people dislike them far more:
