In some cases, I quite like irritating people who need to be irritated.

I never meant to antagonize anyone.

It's nice to be irritated. It's a very joyous thing.

Rudeness makes me very angry.

I seem to be some sort of lightning rod. I just really irritate people, you know? I really do.

I get very annoyed when people think I'm nice or diffident or a polite English gentleman. I'm a nasty piece of work, and people should know that.

This person they make me out to be irritates the hell out of me as well.

I think people hate me pretty much across the board, which is nice. I mean, it's a pretty evenhanded loathing among a certain amount of the critical population, which used to be about 80 percent. So now I've gotten to the point where I just don't worry about it that much. It used to be very upsetting, now it's only mildly upsetting.

Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.
