Oh the tentacles inside are frightful but the deck's so delightful [Mistletoe, OPEN]
Hubris is defined in the dictionary as: a noun which means excessive pride or self-confidence or arrogance. (dictionary.com)
Hubris in Xander's case meant that after laughing at Carol getting stuck by the mistletoe, the one eyed Scooby should have realized it was only a matter of time before GLADOS caught up with him. So while being suddenly stopped by a forcefield and told that a crewmate needed to show affection wasn't that big a surprise; it sure as hell was annoying and a nuisance.
"Oh come on! Hey, can't I trade this for cake? Or the maze! I'll take the maze behind door 2 if you let me out of here!"
