I'm not a designer and I don't know anything about anti-patterns, but here's what grinds my gears about it:

-The layout switches between using icons and text as buttons/menu items on the same page

-The homepage looks like aol/yahoo's landing page - too busy and no sense of direction

-theres like 3 different bar selection menus on the front page, all in different places that do dramatically different things. I don't have any kind of visual cues into what the bar menu on the top or right do.

-gigantic images and padding reduce information density
