Officials that point to the bench when reporting a foul.
Seeing a Trail park his buns 2 feet inside the division line and 2 feet inside the sideline and never moving.

The pointing to the bench thing -- I'd pass out if a JV official around here DIDN'T do that.
My biggest annoyance is the official that has to report twice. Four-two-four-two. For God's sake, is it 42 or 24? Or 4242?
For free throws:
I picked up "two times" from some partner over the years.
Doesn't matter what level I'm working, I just say "two times," "one and one," or "one" and bounce the ball. I don't need to give instructions as if they're relevant. If they're having trouble lining up, I'll say "red down low" (which really confuses the teams if one's wearing blue and the other white
).
