Default GUI From Hell

y hallo thar sourceforts! Or whats left of you at least.

I have an assignment to make a 'GUI From Hell' - basically, I need to make this program the most dickest piece of software ever. And where better to get advice on how to be a dick, than from a forum full of them?

So ideas on how to make the most annoying program ever. Go go go.

Make sure to use LOTS of icons, but don't label any of them, and have them fairly small so you can't quite work out what they are. Screw with convention as much as possible, override all traditional methods of exiting the application and allow exit only using an exit icon on the toolbar.

inappropriate background music that you can't turn off. magenta background with neon green text. overlapping buttons. POP UPS FUCKING EVERYWHERE "are you sure you want to do this?" "are you REALLY sure?". Make whatever objective the user is going to do extremely hard and when they get to the final part make the buttons overlap having one complete it and another button that goes back to the beginning over the top of it so theres only a couple pixels or so to click where you can complete it.

have menu options that have no actions associated with them but to tell you to look under one of the other menus for the option you were looking for.
ex: go six drop down boxes deep to see a greyed out option that says "look under tools for this option"

another idea: copy the hp-50g calculator
every button has 4 commands associated with it (unmodified, alpha, right-shift, left-shift) as well as multi-key combos where if you hit the buttons together it does something entirely different.
