It's the better 'OOP extension' to C than C++ though ;)

Apart from the unfamiliar method call syntax it's actually a decent language extension once you understand what problems it wants to solve, and the killer feature of ObjC is that it doesn't mess with C semantics (which means ObjC part of the language is always automatically compatible with the latest C standard, while the 'C subset' of C++ is forever stuck in the mid-90s).
