This Is Your UI Design On Drugs

I just installed Office 2007 for the first time.

WHAT WERE YOU IDIOTS THINKING?!

The "ribbon".  It's like a toolbar, except that it takes up far more space, you can't customise it, and you can't see everything at once.  In other words, it's a toolbar without any of the advantages of a toolbar.

AND THEN THEY REMOVED ALL THE MENUS!

What the hell?  No, seriously, what the hell?  They took a successful professional application and turned it into an irritating toy.
