angst (noun)
  1. A feeling of anxiety or fear.

That doesn't sound quite right. Let's try something else.

From wikipedia.org

Angst is a Dutch and German word for fear or anxiety. It is used in English to describe a more intense feeling of internal emotional strife.

While I like the pun involved here (Don't ask. I'm not going to explain), I don't think the word applies in this situation. I think frustration is more along the right lines. Stupid people frustrate me. But I digress. I had a thought today and wondered if it was wrong.:

Is it wrong to ask someone if they'd like to be shot in the hand because they frustrate you? Is it still wrong if you've been through the experience and know exactly how that feels? I wondered if I'd get special dispensation for having been through the experience myself. That's what I get for looking through my photo gallery when I'm frustrated.
