Wow. You're going to have a difficult life if you continue thinking you're so much better than everyone else. Also, how in the hell did you link being pissed about having dumb teachers into "fuck authority!"? That makes no sense to me.

The most angering for me is when someone who doesn't have any explicit authority tries to act as if they do. "Shut your mouth or you'll regret it," type comments are the staple of this diet.

Um, that has nothing to do with hating authority. You said yourself that they have no authority, so that is just hating people telling you to STFU.
I'd have to agree that hating authority is neither a matter of personality or age, but maturity. Were I as mature in high school as I am now, I would have gotten in a lot less trouble, gotten along better with my dad and pretty much just have been way less stupid. However, maturity is a lot of the time closely aligned with age.
