It seems that if you want to be supremely picky about what you do, and don't care what you get paid, then the obvious answer is to just do your own side-projects, open source them, and have a paypal tip jar where people can send you some money. This pays closer to the $0/hour side than the $100/hour side. You might also consider working on side projects with an emphasis on them making money, but then I think you'll quickly find that you'll be required to do work that you don't consider fun and interesting, so you'd probably have to give up before it got far enough to become an actual money-making venture. So again, closer to $0/hour. Or maybe you'd like to do contract work, but again, to fully complete a project for a client is most certainly going to require that you do some work that you don't like, so I don't think anyone is going to pay you for delivering something that's only partially complete, so again, $0/hour.
