When I was having difficulty sleeping last night, I had an idea for a new musical thread: instruments that you find annoying. I don't just want to know what they are, I want to know why and perhaps the associations you make with them. 
My list:
Pianos, not always, but quite often, I generally am left cold by them, especially when it is in classical music. The only instances where I see to enjoy them is on some of Primal Scream's music, where piano is played by Martin Duffy, or on some of The Fine Young Cannibals stuff.
Pan pipes... seem sort of cliched to me and allude to contrived 80s new wave new lifestyle navel gazing diet addicts following every new fad going. But that's just me.
Sometimes the brass in ska music, that is the new punk-ska, or ska-punk, I find it sometimes has an overkill of the stuff as if they're trying to disguise a crap vocalist or something.
