I have a different pet peeve with replies to questions, besides telling people to search.

Answering a new thread sarcastically. When a day or two have passed and there are over a dozen replies, it doesn't bother me. But if in the first couple of replies, someone comes in with a smartass reply just to amuse themselves ... that bugs me. Because that then encourages others to do the same and the whole thread becomes useless to the person who wanted help in the first place. Or worse, they manage to take the bad advice earnestly. Either way, more often than not it sours newcomers to the community.

Again, if a question has been adequately answered already and someone wants to make a joke after ... go right ahead. No harm done.
