Time to answer my own questions.
1) Typically arrogance. Even when the intention is humurous, I still hate it, but at least then I can put up with it for a while.
More often than not, I get mad at myself for falling short of my expectations.
2) Not really. I try my best to avoid arrogant personalities, so its not that big of a problem. With myself its more common, but I get over it easier by pushing myself past my failures.
3) Displacement.
4) This is my problem. I never seem to let things go easily, if at all. I'm still beating myself up for things I did 15 years ago. With other people, I can at least put a mask on to remain civil with them.
5) Yep.
