Wasted words. Unnecessary descriptions. Bad logic/philosophy. Erroneous history. Sex & romance (especially sappiness). Repetitiveness. Clichés & obviousness. Telling me the psychology behind your characters motives instead of letting me figure it out. Using the same word for the same item several times within a single paragraph (don't say "car" every time, but rather say automobile, vehicle, bucket of bolts, coupe, hot rod, beater, clunker, jalopy, heap, etc.)
