Specialized stumpjumper fsr 2006. I really hated that dull & lifeless pile of poo.
Giant sl with integrated seatpost - the only road bike I've ever had that I'd happily take an axe to . So uncomfortable and transmitted so many harsh vibrations though the frame.

Only one that really sticks out for me was a 1999 GT XCR4000 that I bought to get back in to MTB's after a few years out. Hateful thing, never got on with it and it put me off riding for another 4 years.

Commencal meta AM1. Lusted after it for ages. The spindly 32mm forks put me off for a while but i eventually pulled the trigger when it got cheap enough. Gears were rubbish, ride was harsh. Dont think I enjoyed a single ride. Cost me £15/mile in depreciation when I sold it on 😯
Replaced it with a meta AM1 29 which I prefer, although to be honest I regret selling the GT sanction that both these bikes replaced.

KHS 650 superb bike. Hated it. Probably because I bought it complete and didn't build it from scratch as is my usual m.o. Flogged it on without any guilt.
