I like the OO-in-C style of programming, its pretty much the best of both
worlds IMHO. C syntax, but no C++ 'features'.
Seriously. You can easily do Real OOP in C; the only thing it lacks
is syntactic sugar. I wish there was a real C++, as in a C that has
just had a few minor, incremental improvements made to it. C++ may
have a lot in common with C in a technical sense, but the mentality it
represents is almost completely orthogonal. (And yes, you can write C
style in C++, but then, why not just use C?)
