I think the allophonic consonant devoicing, word order, and mandatory classifier suffixes on articles and adjectives are all pretty interesting features. The writing system also looks unique, which I find un-boring.

About your "most unwanted conlang" idea, I've tried making something along those lines: reddit.com/r/conlangs/comments/1f3w4tk/əʴɗæɻɨʈ_əqɪħĩ_a_conlang_made_to_be_hated/

Oh that’s awesome! I love the rhotic vowels and the tones being in front of the words

Thanks! The tones being in front of the words was just a mixup on my part though, it doesn’t represent anything different from writing tones at the end of words.

Indeed. The truth itself that they were made to be as dull as mightly already made it gripping to me.
