I’m still annoyed with how verbose Objective-C is. Just check out what one has to do to create and concatenate a string. Madness:

    NSString * test = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:@"This is a test string."];
    NSString * test2 = [test stringByAppendingString:@" This value is appended."];

And god forbid you want to concatenate two things to a string:

    NSString * string3 = [string1 stringByAppendingString:[string2 stringByAppendingString:@" Adding a third string."]];
