Favorite: Ruby, because everything makes sense. Once you get that "everything is an object", the rest just falls naturally into place. No other language has been so intuitive from that point.

Regularly use: JavaScript. I hate it because absolutely nothing makes sense. I don't even understand enough to explain more than that, yet somehow I'm able to copy/paste things that do work and tweak them enough until they do what I want. At least some of the time.
