Though I no longer have the link handy, one of my favourite examples of this was of an OAuth2 'library' for PHP. You couldn't make out the code for the endless comments. Javadoc style comments and annotations; actual comments ... there was paragraph upon paragraph of comment for individual class properties, that you could reasonably infer from their name if it was done well.
It got to the point where the comments were so lengthy and prosaic, you were deterred from reading them just by their very existence.
