Bidding proceeded:

1C P 1D P
2C (2H) X P
3C P 3NT X
4S P 4NT P
5H X P P
5S P P X

Is this the worst example of anti-partnership bridge you'll ever see?

No, it's one of the best examples of anti-partnership bridge that I've seen actually.

Seems just like bad bidding to me.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

Isn't this the tutorial that they give to new "experts" on-line? ;)

These guys probably won't play transfers EVER. Absolute selfcentred madness, but I wonder why they didn't get to 7NT so North can't do anything else than let South play. :D

I once heard the following novice auction:

1♥ - 1♠
2♥ - 2♠
3♥ - 3♠
4♥ - 4♠
5♥ - 5♠
6♥ - 6♠
Pass

Opener was really tempted to bid 7.
A bit of blatant self-pimping - I've got a new poker book that's getting good reviews.
