The things that bother me the most are:
1. People who ask questions and then don't bother to choose a winner.
2. People who answer a question with rudeness, sarcasm (making fun of the asker/the question itself), crude suggestions or with a non-answer like "idk."
3. Bad answers that win (especially those that win by one vote, because the asker didn't bother to pick a winner).
4. Trolls in any form.

I would have to say that what burns me about the Yahoo! Answers pages the most is the lack of actual polls and surveys in the P&S section. I think we need to set up a page here for ALL of the 'random' questions that have little, if any, relation to the Y!A page they're posted on.
We could also do with a page for people who are looking to give lighthearted Answers to (seemingly) serious Questions. That would give the virtual comedians a place to be, so that the more 'serious' users would have less reason to complain/file Violations.
Finally, the Y!A spelling check ought to be accompanied with a thesaurus, so that the people asking longer questions could find synonyms for a word that tends to be repeated within the body of their query.
Later Daze! =)

Hehehhehe, well one thing that bothers me is that lately I made a data goof, and then hit the submit button instead of the modify one, sending my boo boo on its way to public viewing. lol.
But seriously, as far as what you actually meant, probably what bothers me is seeing the extent of, not accidental goofs, but genuine ignorance of things that I thought were general knowledge, and the frightening lack of ability on the part of so many people to string a handful of words together to make an intelligible, grammatical sentence in english.
I think our amazing gift of intercommunication is immeasurably important, and the mind-boggling lack of respect for it, and the treatment of it as "irrelevant" bothers me a lot. I happen to know a school teacher who has sometimes astonished me saying something that I never would have dreamed of hearing out of the mouth of a person charged with the teaching of the next generation. It makes me wonder who is teaching whom in the schools these days.

The thumbs pointing in a downward direction and ***h o l e s like that Shaniqua Jones avatar up there. The same dumb stupid little annoying questions all the time. Every question being taken so personally that causes suspended accounts. Racist questions, little teenie boppers skirting around being a bother. Gray shadowed silhouette of where a picture or an avatar should be. Porn related avatars, the obscenities...and the most absurd questions on 'do you support gay marriages? Like enough on the topic already!!! WTH! It's getting old, boring and certainly uninteresting!

Trying to figure out how to start over with all my settings since my first level 7 360 account was suspended two days ago by the yahoo yahoo's. Plus, lost all my friends, contacts and fans.

Actually, I was just thinking about that! It worries me that so many people out there can't spell or construct a sentence. And it's not just the kids, some of the adults on here are almost illiterate. I know it doesn't really matter as long as they can make themselves understood, but what's going to happen to our language in the long term? Especially when the kids of today seem to have their own language altogether, isn't it going to get lost somewhere along the line?
Apart from that I hate getting violations for giving an honest opinion.

all the questions that ask "i was kissing my boyfriend in my bathing suit could i be pregnant" questions .in this day and age if you don't know that they sell pregnancy tests in the stores, how the heck do you have the brain cells to work a computer.
people that go to category's like homework help and tell the people to just do it themselves...hello why did you even look on that section if you had no intention of helping them was it just to make derogatory statements at the author.

The lack of care in "Customer Care."
People who pick their friend's answer or a pandering (i.e., suck-up I-agree) answer instead of the best one.
People who ask a legal question without saying where they are. Um, that's key.
People who reply to the question just to say they don't like the question.
Trolls.
Nasty emails from teenyboppers.
The guilty-til-proven-innocent reporting program (they appear to be working on this though)
PEOPLE WHO TYPE THEIR QUESTION LIKE THIS.
People who say "easy 10 points" or "easy question." If it's easy, do it yourself.
People who post a question and then want 10 answers...do your own homework.
"Am I Pregnant?" (I hope not, you shouldn't breed if you're asking me)
