I like the way Objective-C made me "think different" compared to more straight C-syntax style languages like Java, PHP or even superficially JavaScript (ironically none of them actually had the C support level Objective-C had!). The quirky syntax, longDescriptiveMethodNames:andProperties: and the relatively flexible type system and run-time capabilities, a strange throwback to the 80's of a different fork from C.
It still makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside seeing it or doodling around with it.
But building applications outside of the ones that have heavy C(++) interop or do really weird stuff run-time I really don't miss working with it and moved almost completely to Swift's "it compiles, it works" capabilities.
