No way, no how. They just doth naught typically work for your games.
What are they?

There are more than one. I dumped knights and paladins. I use 1 on a d6 to find secret doors (1-2 on d6 for elves).

A rule that is in the book? My House Rules show where I deviate, but I do not recall any I would absolutely refuse to use.
Since its 20,000 I suggest "Captain Nemo" as his title. Beyond the obvious connection, he is one who sails on his own terms and ignores those he doesn't agree with...confident in his journey and goals.

Encumbrance and Vancian spell memorization are probably the two main C&C rules I ditch.
For encumbrance I use the "eyeball it" method and for spells, I mostly allow casters to spontaneously cast any spell which they know, so long as they have available spells remaining for the day.

Re: The C&C published rules, you typically do not use...
This probably goes without saying, but...
...illusionist healing.
I use the surprise rules from 2nd Edition AD&D.
Without looking directly at my house rules, I think these are the only things I "do different" because I'm not fond of the C&C method. I think everything else are add-ons to the rules.

Everything in M&T.
I prefer making up my own monsters and treasure. I also use a lot of stuff from other games.
95% of the PHB.
Prefer using my own races (which are sometimes classes) and the players almost always want a class that is not in the rules.
We use the SIEGE Engine, basically. Oh, and some of the spells. Probably the equipment as a baseline but I also add about double.
And... I have not used anything from the CKG except the deep dwarf. Once. As a NPC.
I might use more of the rules if I read them. But I've gotten used to just playing however seems best for me.

Yep, encumbrance and many of the new illusionist spells.
