It makes me angry because it's disrespectful to the worker, and sets them up as some sort of quasi-independent contractor. It also makes me angry because it conceals the actual price of the meal, but that makes me less angry because eating at a restaurant is a luxury anyway.
I always tip 20-25%; my anger isn't that servers need to be paid, it's that they're not allowed to depend on it.
