"Really Bothered", five letters...

...last word in the puzzle. I have ATIAT, which is obviously wrong. Or ATEAT, which seems pretty wrong too. A TEAT? for "really irritated"? Nah.

The first A is from a long answer, "The new testament", that has to be right.

The first T is from "tests", clue was "Midterm and Final", the "ests" part is definitely right, I guess the T could be wrong, it could be Pests or something, but Tests fits the clue I think.

The I (or the E if you prefer) I'm unsure of. It comes from "White House Memento", for which I answered "pin" or else "pen" Do they give out pins or pens at the White House? The P and the N are right, so it's Pin or Pen or Pan or Pon or Pyn or something.

The second A is from ERA ("Important Period") and the second T is from THATSNOTTRUE ("It's A Lie!"), both of which pretty much have to be correct (the R in ERA is also the R in PROAMS).

So what the hell is "Really Irritated" besides me?

well white house memento is definitely cuff links

nah, it's ATE AT, Rock Chalk got it right. On the bright side I got the puzzle right except for one letter I knew was wrong.

No lie but it was the last letter in the puzzle and for some reason I just couldn't see it. I don't mind humbling myself for others' amusement, though, as long as it has a chance of being teh funneh.

Vineyard Vines Jeans shorts are totally teh funneh

"And the answer is, people that we really hate".

"I'd like to buy a vowel, E"

"I'd like to solve the puzzle. Is the answer NIGGER?"

"I'm sorry. The word you are looking for is NAGGER"

Think metaphorically, men, and you too can become Xword nerds. One more hint: In this case, "bothered" is used as a verb, not an adjective.

Oh, I see RC and Tippster gave it away
