Can anyone bear this irritation? (9)

I believe the answer is:

annoyance

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'irritation?' is the definition.
(I know that irritation can be written as annoyance)

'can anyone bear' is the wordplay.
'can anyone' anagrams to 'ANNOYANCE'.
Though, I am not sure how the anagram is indicated.

'this' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for annoyance that I've seen before include "pest" , "Feeling of slight anger" , "(Anger at) harassment" , "trouble" , "Nuisance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
