IMO openings that can potentially be the most hated :
a : 1) e4
1)...c5 2) c3 because even if we don't lose, it can be very difficult to win with Black
1)...e5 2) Nf3 Nc6 3) Bc4 Bc5 4) b4 because a strong gambit and since "we don't really want to waste time studying anything other than Ruy Lopez", it can be annoying.
b : 1) d4 d5
London system and Coll system of course but probably also :
2) f4 Nf6 3) e3 because it can be difficult to win with Black.
2) e4 dxe4 3) Nc3 Nf6 4) f3 exf3 5) Nxf3 because not very pleasant to play with Black due to the potential danger that this opening can create.

Easy!!! The London System. I used to say the Berlin Lopez but now its definitely the London. Seems as if I'm always playing someone where I feel thats the only opening he knows and I don't know how to play against it. Lost many a game.
London

For sure, it's annoying.
b
people who play the anti sicilians, anti benonis, exchance french/slav, or london
like grow up and stop playing for tricks. if not that then at least try to win as white
Anti-Sicilians. This just doesn't make sense, you are offered to play an amazingly fun, complex middlegame and than you choose some random boring line like the Alapin.
The London, but it's not that I don't like to play against it, but I just don't get why people would play such a boring system. You don't get any experience in new structures and you allow black to get an absolutely fine position.
And lastly the English, but this is just my personal opinion. The english is an absolutely fine opening but I find it really hard to play as black. I never get positions I like and the positions are often really passive for black.
falkbeer counter gambit... can't wait to be able to play it myself with the rare, but DEVASTATING (but I won 1 each 5.Bc4, 5.Bb5 and 5.Nf3 games and lost 1 each playing 5.Nc3 and 5.fxe5??)
falkbeer nimzowitsch marshall countergambit. OH THE CARNAGE!
this is the MAIN LINE:
of course white does better if he knows what he's doing, but there's a BUNCH of mini minis in the 3.exd5 line 3.Nf3 is the road to equality at 1/3 the number of games vs 3.exd5 and 3.fxe5 is the 3rd most popular
line and is virtual suicide
i have 73% losing stats against 3...Qxd5 in 22 games, and 72% in 18 3...e5 games. i was surprised I do bad in that line, because 4.Nc3 gains a tempo on the queen
3...exf4 is just BAD. I win 58% of those
I want a piece of the action when I start pushing 1...e5 so I NEVER have to face an advance variation ever again

Any opening that you ruins your plans. Like I want to play Scotch game, but many of my opponents ruin all my plans with their C5. So I hate it a bit
I think that you should respect them, but I gennerally agree. I like to play the tennison gambit, but my opponents always seem to play the reti or the nimzowich. Nimzowich black mustang is so boring!
I'm amazed that so many people hate the Petrov.

I reserve a special hatred for most Sicilian Lines, and also despise the Scandinavian and the Alekhine Defense.
I would say its the french defence
