Great topic. Mine are mostly bad habits I think, from being a crappy writer. Adverbs feature heavily. I just got a fic back with "embarrassedly" frowned at twice, and it wasn't the first time :D
I think I have a wide vocabulary, but I notice I use a lot of the same words fairly frequently. I also put cheesy jokes in if I'm losing confidence in my ability to hold the reader's attention. And my characters talk too much, don't do an awful lot, and blaspheme all the ruddy time.
