Mosquitoes.
from what I see, you've either once waged war on mosquitoes and they're back for revenge, or they just don't like you to begin with :P
Tried those mosquito repellant creams? At least you could piss off the mosquitoes just as much as they piss you off :P

Some war that is, given they die off overnight.

Mosquitoes have killed more people than every war combined. Half of all the humans that have ever existed died from malaria.

They are, irrefutably, the most dangerous creatures on earth.

I've done that before. Sometimes it makes it better though, since you are basically revising all your ideas for better ones. Good luck. ^

I hate how teachers wait until the final month of school to dump all of their assignments on you all at once, so you have 50 assignments to do in under two weeks...

Having my car insurance premium literally double in price when we moved house (became £2600, so had to cancel), still pisses me off and it's been 7 months since we moved.

 :o   The price of your car insurance borders on astronomical.  Have you previously been cited for hitting a group of school children while driving drunk, wearing no seat belt, while running a red light and speeding?  Or are you just insuring a Maserati?  I spend less than $100 a month for mine.
 
I've grown to loathe insurance as a necessary evil, particularly home owner's insurance.  Completely worthless unless my home gets wiped out by a hurricane or a tornado.  Car insurance, at least, is usually more affordable and odds are will actually provide some benefit.

Being 23 and living in the worst city in England for car insurance fraud means people who want to pay legitimately have to foot the bill of all those twats who don't give a shit and drive round with no tax, insurance and mot.

insurance here is as useless as depositing on a collapsing bank, sure they'll tank like what 100-200$ of the cost but you still have to pay for like 90% of whatever was supposed to be payed, excluding paperworks.
whats worse is that you can't have your annual registration of your car without it having any form of insurance, thankfully theres one with a lowest fee of 50$ monthly.

Our lecturer in human-computer interaction asked us to design a command-line interface for an ice cream vending machine, and said that the target audience is anyone who buys ice cream (like your old grandmother).

...this isn't possible.

I forgot to mention; the customer doesn't get a menu, and the computer isn't allowed to help.

Is there some kind of problem with the "money + big button next to picture of ice cream flavours = delicious treat" approach?

Well, command line means it has to look like DOS and doesn't get a GUI so no fancy pictures. All I can think is like...

Select type the number of desired flavor of icecream:
1. Strawberry
2. Vanilla
3. Chocolate
4. Vanilla + Chocolate
5. Strawberry + Vanilla
6. Banana
7. Chocolate Chip
8. Cookie Dough

(user input: 1)

You have selected Strawberry. Please type YES to confirm or NO to try again.

(user input: YES)

Thank you. Have a nice day. Enjoy your icecream.
