Looks to me like you live in the SW and that is called "knock down plaster". Also looks like someone tried to camouflage a bad plaster repair on top of the Knockdown plaster. Like you, I hate it too. Not much you can do except either skim coat with USG joint compound (a lot of work & sanding) or go over your walls with Dry Wall (also known as sheet rock). Good luck. Let us know what you do and take pictures!
