*MOST ANNOYING CHARACTER
 
 So, I'm just curious for the rest of you.  Were there any characters 
 who truly annoyed you?  I don't mean disappointed you or angered you, 
 really.  I mean ANNOYED you. :)
 
 Montavilla47:

I think that for me, the most consistently annoying person was Tonks.
 
I didn't care for that clumsy act, the "wotcher" catchphrase, or the 
metamorphmagus talent that NEVER GOT USED!
 
After reading OotP--a story in which she contributed nothing but 
extra verbiage, I couldn't help thinking of her as the "Poochie" of
the HP series.  

Sali:
I have to agree about Tonks. She was just so completely and utterly
superfluous. The only point I can see to her being in existence there
was to give Harry anything remotely resembling a reason for refusing
Lupin's help in DH. And how on earth did someone that clumsy become an
Auror in the first place? Every time she tripped, I cringed. I wanted
a young, adult female remotely near the centre of the plot and I got
Tonks. Teach me to be careful what I wish for.
