Which characters in any of the books really rub you the wrong way and what is it you don't like about them?

Harry, in Book 5 especially. I don't know why, but he just irritates me. A lot.

Harry does annoy me very much in the book and especially in the films. He is just so thick, the acting in the movie was what let that down. (I know he did a good job for an 11 year old but still)

Malfoy of course. He has no respect, is arrogant and needs to be put in his place. The Characters of the book could never actually make me frustrated, but you wish there was something that you could actually do to get through to Malfoy.

Umbridge drove me nuts, but your crazy if you dont like Hagrid and I liked how JK was developing Harry. I think it just leads to him being a dark kick-ass wizard in book 6 and 7 like he should be. My fav is Hermione though. *Hoping for Harry and Hermione to get together!!!

Harry (in book 5) and Sirius. I dunno why, I guess because they seem so confident/arrogant or something :/

Harry's constant anger and "why me?" attitude throughout book 5 was very annoying at times. He's been through a lot, yes, but he should accept the help and protection his friends are giving him. I understand his view point, but he needs to be more patient.

Dolores Umbridge was probably my least favorite character in all the books. It only takes two or three pages of her attitude and actions to irritate even the most tolerant people.

Default Yup. (again)

I agree. Harry seems like he's about to get crazy and shout like Rambo when he shoots with a machine-gun. Oh, and Dolores DUMBridge is just one of those Idiots at the ministry of magic that only think about what they believe (Wich is almost nothing.) Hateful...

I hate umbridge for being a stupid, student abusing teacher and horrible ministry of magic official.

malfoy for being so horrible to harry, ron, and hermione.

snape for being horribly to everyone except for the slytherins.

that's pretty much it there are lots of characters where they annoy me at times and don't at others... depends on what kind of mood i'm in.

Default Well...

"snape for being horribly to everyone except for the slytherins."

How do you know?

Harry actually only ASSUMES that Malfoy is doing better (in terms of marks)...
Remember Malfoy hiding his essay?

Snape only picks on Harry, and is just as harsh on Slytherins as on other houses....


I hated Umbridge at first, but slowly I began to love the idea... Especially the Weasly Brothers' fireworks...


I just hated Harry... Though he had a point... Blowing up at his friends was not the solution...

And he forgot Sevirious's Mirror... =P

i'm not saying neccesarily in terms of marks but in the way he disciplines and treats the slytherins... there is significant evidence from the books that he is harsher on other house than he is on students from his own house...

"Had they been from my house, they would be expelled!"

Remember that line from CoS? I think that events may be skewed at least SLIGHTLY by Harry's perspective...

I absolutely hate Umbridge. As was what J.K. intended obviously, as she is the only person in the series who you can easily hate more than Snape and the Malfoy's combined.

Harry. While he has had to deal with a lot, his arrogance grows as the books progress, which is not a good thing with an oncoming wizard war.

Lockhart was annoying. But compared to Umbridge, he's likeable.

My List:
Umbridge( She reminds me of Nurse Hatchet from the Shining for some odd reason)

Rita Skeeter(annoying and concieted: Something I can't stand from any type of Human being)

Cho Chang(Again annoying and concieted. She reminds me of those type of pretty girls every guy wanted to date or just for the sake of getting into her pants)
