Facebook. Design wise, it's an absolute mess. It's hard to know when or if new comments are there because Facebook's algorithms choose what you see despite your desires otherwise. Means you have to visit every single friend's page to see if they posted something (I've got friends that never show up on my feed, despite constantly posting things that I go and see).
Their response system is also screwed up; good luck having a conversation in response to a news article. It's like pissing in a dark suit.. it might make you feel better, but no one is going to notice it.
I'd also say YouTube is a mess, but it's recoverable. There's some mystery meat navigation going on there that I don't like, and it would be a lot better if it just showed you the newest videos of the people you subscribe to in a single feed at the top of the "main page", but they haven't figured out the blindingly obvious yet.
IMO if they removed comments from YouTube, it would be a more bearable website. Just have users @ you on twitter or reply to the post on Facebook. I'm happy TotalBiscuit doesn't allow comments on his videos, but it's a shame he wants me to go to reddit.
