I really like the "Pet Peeves" one. In English and other languages, I fight against what I call "adverbializing" by which I mean putting unnecessary adverbs and adverbial phrases everywhere, especially in speech; these include "equally", "in truth", "definitely", "veritably" (favourite word of an old boss of mine who thought it made him sound like an intellectual). I'm rather against the interdiction of the passive voice, or the interdiction of shifting the reader's point of view. While the passive voice can very quickly damage clarity, not every text should read like a to-do list. Different styles can be pertinent, just don't think writing in a complicated manner will make people want to read you.
