Death Stare

to look fixedly at someone with so much hate in hopes that their face melts, explodes, or caves in with extreme discomfort and pain.

Damn Jenny! WTF is with the death stare?

Jenny: "Honestly, I just wish you would die."

stare at the wallpaper

when you take a shit without reading material. staring at the wall in front of you is pretty much all you can do, unless you can beat one out with the smell of your own poo

There were some old issues of Modern Bride, so I just decided to stare at the wallpaper.

staring daggers

Staring daggers -

1) Where you give a glare of jealously or hatred at someone, that feels like daggers are stabbing you.

2) Girls will stare daggers at someone when they are jealous or angry, or just hate you.

Luke: "Did you see that?"
Turk: "What?"
Luke: "Tracy was staring daggers at my girlfriend just then."
Turk: "Sound about right."

Bridge Stare

That awkward yet hilarious... Yet very uncomfortable space of time where you're stuck behind a raised bridge with a bunch of other people and you're all thinking two things.... Why me? And," let's kill the bridge guy!!!" the mutual feeling of hate for the bridge guy and for the yacht which is going under the bridge is so great that you can actually taste it. Yeahhhhhh.
Can also be applicable to the stares given and received while waiting.

Dude! I was waiting for the stupid bridge to go back down, and 10 minutes after the bridge was raised, I started to feel the bridge stare growing.... Hundreds of eyes focused on the guy in that little office control panel thinggy. I am scarred for life.

Oprah Stare

A piercing glance that induces a person to reveal personal and/or secret information.

Derived from Oprah Winfrey and her omniscient and omnipotent stare.

Ian: "So who pooped in the yard last night Brooke?

...
(Oprah Stare)"

Brooke: "Dammit! Stop giving me the Oprah Stare! I did it okay..."
