I nominate IBM's cognos
Main reasons:
A separate table for each year's data.
Year/Period/Day stored in date format.
I'm ignoring the completely meaningless table/column names, as presumably they mean something in Swedish, but they certainly don't aid understanding.
I daresay there are other horrors that I have yet to encounter.
Last time I saw something this bad, it had been knocked up in access by a non-IT person.
Anyone come across worse? (I'm scared to read the answers to this question...)
