My Pet Peeves
1. Watermarks on lousy photos. Relax! No one is going to 'borrow' a boring photo of your children or pets!
2. Calling your camera equipment a 'rig'. It isn't a 'rig', and calling it a 'rig' doesn't make you look cool. Quite the opposite in fact.
3. People with really expensive equipment who still, somehow, are unable to take a decent photo. Sell your pricey lenses, go back to the kit lens, and learn to take a half-decent shot. Then spend a grand on that 31 Ltd.
