reading this question was a nightmare :P

after re-reading (and knowing what the asking is trying to say), understanding the question is STILL a nightmare! hahaha

that is creepy?!

看情况： totally a nightmare = very frustrating （挫折） = very difficult = very annoying 我举几个例子好了： Driving in heavy traffic is a total nightmare. = Driving in heavy traffic is very frustrating. Reading this question was a total nightmare = Reading this question was very difficult / hard (to understand). Teaching Dark Panther Chinese was a total nightmare. = Teaching Dark Panther Chinese was frustrating, difficult, and very annoying. :D :D :D
