Lack of paragraphs. The other stuff annoys me, but the difference is that I'm still willing to read the other stuff.
For example, if someone types a full paragraph with no capitalization, punctuation, misplaced homophones, and misspellings I'll go, "wow, this dude is stupid." Even with spammy text-speak, I'll read it (I'm of the younger generation, I can actually read it fine).
If someone types an entire page of text perfectly but doesn't split the paragraphs or indent at all, I actually get angry. Seriously, you couldn't bother to press the Enter key? Not even once? I have to read this huge brick of text because you're a lazy moron? Screw that and screw you.
What's the worst typographical sin?
