    internet tough guys and religious banter, especially those who feel it is alright to tell someone what they believe so they can tell them they are wrong (straw man, false equalities, other fallacious arguments)

    Rude people.
    Shortening of words, messing up grammar
    People coming to a forum to ask questions they could easily google the answer to

    Religous and political debates (or debates of any kind) where one/both/all parties involved refuse to entertain another perspective on a given topic.

    Text speak in forum posts and electronic communications. Bad grammar/punctuation/spelling or a total lack thereof.

    I have a lot of pet peeves that stem from the internet and how people behave. I guess the top three would be:
    1.) Short hand - it's fine for texting I guess, but I don't want to have decipher what people are saying
    2.) People who forget/deliberately decide to act rude because they aren't talking face to face with someone.
    3.) Odd use of capitalization - there is a time and place for capitalization and people tend to overuse it.

    I was going to write my normal lengthy response, but honestly I couldn't have said it better than this. The only thing I would add to it, because limiting my pet peeves of the internet to three is just inconceivable, is writing format.

    Paragraph breaks, bullet points, etc are your friend and mine. Reading a wall of text is not only irritating, but painful.

    1. People that troll these forums.
    2. People that have no consideration for others.
    3. People that try to argue points but have no facts to back up their argument.
