Top 10 of Software Design Evilness

T

These are my personal top ten of software design evilness. That means ten designs that make your software either complex, untestable, monolithic, unchangeable or hard to understand:

Singletons
Enums (or other c# enumeration equivalents)
Swallow exceptions
God classes
Missing interface segregation
Monster classes
Too configurable, too flexible
Abstraction layers not providing additional abstraction
Try catch for program flow control
Missing logging
