(something) is enough to plague a saint

Something is so trying or frustrating as to bother even the most patient person. Being with screaming kids all day is enough to plague a saint. I've always thought that the hassle of navigating the crowds during the Black Friday sales is enough to plague a saint. Having to deal with construction at your house for six months straight is enough to plague a saint. I definitely regret not getting more of this work done before we moved in!
