I hate modals even more than pop-ups. There are valid reasons to use either, but in most cases they are a form of abuse.

Agreed! Usually this came up because someone wanted to add a popup, but call it a modal to sneak past the bad connotation. When really they shouldn't have been doing either and they knew that; just laundering a UX they knew was crappy.
