I love writing code and especially creating UIs. It's my passion and I have put up with a lot of cruddy, unintuitive languages and development environments to follow my bliss.

Some of the more arduous technologies I've encountered would be:

Embedded FORTH - well actually, any FORTH for that matter
The inaptly named NATURAL and its backend ADABAS
VC++ 6 MFC - Creating any sufficiently complex UI was akin to attempting suicide with a hammer.
COM/ActiveX - it was a nice idea that got lost in the implementation. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Anything involving Eclipse! (now where did I put that hammer?)
InstallShield
LISP - that syntax, oh the humanity!

But I really enjoy using LEX & YACC, so what does that say about me? Wink | ;)
Cheers,
Mike Fidler
