One of the grossest large codebase anti-pattern is god state objects. One of the worst I've seen had to do with the state of conference call. Depending on the state, zillions of properties were or weren't valid. It was a huge, fucking mess that often allowed invalid states to creep in via edge-cases that led to unrecoverable states.
