Off the top of my head, I dislike: slow loading, non-sized images loading later and changing page layout, putting focus into an input field moving page elements, floating elements that cover content and can't be dismissed. And many more that I can't think of at the moment.

Major annoying: The 'dickbar' (really, any fixed, unscrollable, element):

Sound. Any sound without the user having explicitly started a video/tune/... If you do that I will avoid you at all cost.
