I hate it....

Try writing decent functions where you explicitly define a return value / object and it gets metamorphasied into a PSObject...
The only way I found to *always* get what you asked for was (for example)

return , VariableContainingObjectToBeReturned

Notice the comma after return and before the variable. Even explicitly casting the varaible to something does not always work...

Another Pet Peave is the fact that if you do not explicitly assign a varible as a return object from a Function (within a function), or pipe a functions return values to null (| Out-Null) it Elephants-Up the expected return value as well...
Who the f*** is General Failure, and why is he reading my harddisk?
