Those idiots in gym/economics who refuse to realize that I want NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM AND THEIR IDIOCY.
Grammar/spelling failure. It just makes me twitch. Especially when it's something easy to remember, like the difference between your and you're or their/there/they're.
When people in foreign language classes don't even try to pronounce things correctly. It's actually easier to remember how vowels are pronounced in Italian than English, people!
When someone's giving a presentation with a prewritten speech and they say 'like' every other word. It's not that difficult to read things off of a page, guys.
On that note, when someone's reading something out loud and they do something like pausing in the middle of a sentence when it wraps around to the next line. It sounds really unnatural and awkward.
When people start banging rhythms on desks when I'm trying to concentrate on something. Actually, just the banging-on-desks thing in general makes me want to smash things.
Loud noises in general, particularly sudden ones.
Strangers invading my personal space.
Getting hit on by the idiots in chem.
Headaches. I get them really easily. Even thinking about having a headache makes me have a headache.
Getting colds. Again, I get them all the time, and I really really REALLY hate them. Especially since they usually come with a headache.
People who sign up for theater/art classes because they think they'll be easy filler courses. ESPECIALLY theater.
People who come up to me while I'm reading manga and ask me why my book's backwards.
People who try to talk to me when I'm reading in general.
The people in my lit class who think that Hannah Montana is great music.
The people in my lit class who get mad at me for making snarky comments under my breath, quietly enough to be practically inaudible, while someone's playing a Hannah Montana song.
The people in my gym class who, when I inform them that Hannah Montana sounds like someone put a recording of a cat in heat through Auto-Tune, say that she sounds better at singing than I do. They've never even heard me sing, for Glod's sake!
People who defend bad writing/artwork/music/etc. by saying that I'm not a published author/artist/musician, so I can't judge it. Excuse me, am I not allowed to judge Hitler because I've never been the leader of Germany?
When people tell me that I need to dress more 'feminine'/wear makeup in order to get a boyfriend.
People assuming I want or need a boyfriend.
Finally, the biggest one of all: people making fun of or hurting my friends. I'm normally fairly non-violent, but this is enough to send me into I WILL DESTROY YOU AND ALL YOU LOVE mode.

The bloody power shower button. I hate it when you're in the shower and you get shampoo in your eyes, so you're groping around with your eyes closed, trying to turn the shower off. Then you press the 'Power Shower' button by mistake and you get blasted in the face. Yes, I'm speaking from personal experience here. UGH. WHY THE HELL DO WE EVEN HAVE THAT BUTTON?!

Grammar/spelling failure. It just makes me twitch. Especially when it's something easy to remember, like the difference between your and you're or their/there/they're. We had a lesson on both of those in English class today, as apparently a lot of people made mistakes about homophones in their essays. I was so depressed by the fact that 2/3 of the class didn't get them right (admittedly, my English class only has 15 people in it) that I could barely make myself raise my hand to explain them. Seriously, how can you not know the differences between your/you're, there/their/they're, or affect/effect by high school?! ...Okay, I will cut some slack to two of the kids who aren't native English speakers. But the rest of you have no excuse. /yelling at imaginary classmates

Character shoes. Especially when you have to wear them for 6 1/2 hours straight.

Poor you DX Hopefully Mr.Tabletpen is in a happier place now. My little brother's ten and he still does stuff like that. And gets away with it way too often.

It was around the time the thread picked up, and I think a few people joined at that time.

Forced/timed writing. I fail so much at it. My english final was analyzing a small work that we've never seen before, so there was no way to prepare. That final kicked my ass so hard.
Another way to look at it: My score of the english portion on the ACT was originally 31. After the writing got factored in, it was 27. That's four whole points!
