Personality traits that you display, without even realizing it.

Yeah, I get what you're saying. Something worth noting is that--in this context, ironically--teenagers apparently have trouble distinguishing between adults' facial expressions of anger, surprise, and the like.

So it's kind of the opposite for what we're talking about--except with talking. Adults have trouble distinguishing between teenagers' tone of voice.

One thing that I don't like that my dad does sometimes (without realizing it, I suppose) is when he's (non-angrily) yelling something to me from another part of the house, but he walks over to me while doing it, and when he gets to where I am (i.e. 3 feet away) he's still yelling as if I'd still have trouble hearing him.

Yeah that's like my mother, who would scream at the top of my lungs when calling me even if she KNEW I was just 5 feet away in the other room.

It's quite jarring. _{Also, "scream at the top of [my] lungs" lol}

Another thing about myself that I was made aware of is that whenever I correct my dad about something he remembered or repeated wrongly, he often gets mad at me and thinks I'm a trying to be rude--when in fact, I'm just trying to gently make known to him his slowly declining mental faculties.

My parents are very often wrong, yet they think they have to be automatically right no matter what. My mother's the kind of person who, if video evidence went against what she said, she'd say the video was wrong. Really.

So yeah naturally if they say something completely wrong I have to correct it. But for some reason no matter how nicely I try to say "It's actually Y not X" it for whatever reason sounds like i'm being an poop hole about it.
