I don't think this should be a thing. All kids are like this and it's ridiculous. The only kids who are diagnosed are the ones with paranoid parents and an irresponsible psychologist who believes in medicating children. The system that chooses the diagnoses is fucked and no one should have to listen to it. Does this diagnose me? Probably. Anyone who went in asking about it would be diagnosed, like really, do the signs not define humanity? If not individuality? 

"All kids are like this and it's ridiculous."

I didn't have most of those traits as a kid. Pretty much just "Spiteful or seeks revenge" and "Touchy or easily annoyed". I also knew plenty of others that did not conform to majority of the above symptoms.

I was diagnosed with ODD as a teen, even though I attempted to manipulate my shrink by lying so as to minimize the severity of my trouble-making in her view. As an adult, I still possess a lot of these traits, and have issues with authority. This is part of the reason I chose to become an entrepreneur :P

I was diagnosed, but I still think I was always reasonable and cooperative. I just have a strong mind. 

I had/have very few of these symptoms.  What you said above sounds like it might be a typical view of a person with this "disorder"

what got you diagnosed with ODD? just physical altercations?

what got you diagnosed with ODD? just physical altercations?

 Mainly because of how I acted in Elementary school. Then it became conduct disorder. It was mainly because between just not doing what I was supposed to and getting an education, and getting into constant fights, they thought I was. I still think it was just because I was bored in school though. I did manage to turn it around by high school. Also, my home life sucked, which I think bled into school and how I acted there. There were physical altercations, skipping school, intentionally getting myself suspended, and not doing my homework.

Why it turned into Conduct Disorder is because it got progressively worse, and eventually criminal. I was told that if I didn't change I'd end up in juvy so many times. I eventually did change though. It took until my mid teens and a juvenile record but I did it.
