The most irritating sound in the world

[AlwaysSomethingThere]

I'll get the ball rolling:

People biting into apples
Tea slurpers

@fruityb It will be the soundtrack to my room 101. There must be a name for it.

Husband snoring, dog slurping at some random part of his body (at the same time, in the same room).

That "I can't do/see/get it!" stroppy noise that my children make.

The sound of a drone flying in close proximity.

Engines idling outside my bedroom window.

That clicky noise that dh makes in his sleep.

Alarms going off for ages and ages.

Whistling.

Anything that hums and/or buzzes.

@MagicKeysToAsda Omg, yes! My tenant sent me a video of hers doing that asking what to do about it! Unbelievable. I googled the make and sent her a YouTube video on how to change the battery. To be fair, it wasn’t totally obvious, but come on!

Verbal fry: there’s an Irish blond girl in a current advert, possibly toothpaste (why are toothpaste adverts so annoying?!) or maybe the ad for Nono? Anyway, her voice has the verbal fry and I can’t bear it.

My mum hits her teeth with her fork every time she puts a mouthful of food in and it's criiiiiinge

When my friend rubs her eyes you can hear the eyeball squelching in its socket and it absolutely turns my stomach.

After the neighbours kept several for a couple of years, fuck cockerels.

They don't just crow once in the morning like in the cartoons, they crow at all fucking hours of night and day.

And according to Birmingham Shitty Council, it wasn't a statutory nuisance. If that's not then I don't know what the fuck is.

The neighbours got rid of theirs eventually, but now hearing one, even on the TV or radio, sets me on edge.

Any and all sounds made by humans. Yuk!

So many, but yawning. The first really loud, followed by four or five equally loud in quick succession. Dear god. Here's a thought: it's actually possible to yawn quietly.

People falling asleep (loudly and noticeably) in public areas. Just find a bed ffs!

Tinny music leaking out of the crappy headphones of the person next to you on the train. Not loudly enough that you can make out the song but loud enough to irritate the crap out of you.

People eating food on the train whilst they are wearing the aforementioned headphones - totally oblivious to their weirdly louder slurping, crunching and chewing. Aaargghh.

Michael McIntyre laughing at his own jokes. The guffawing wrongun.

People eating with their gob flapping.

Misophonia here too. Mine are:

1. Hiccups. DD had them the other day, then hers went away and DS started up immediately. I wanted to run away. DH is the worst, I actually feel like I hate him when he has the hiccups

1. Knives and forks getting tangled together. The noise when you pull them apart... argh! Also squeaky glasses from the dishwasher. No thank you.

1. Hedge trimmers/leaf blowers. Especially when they go on and off repeatedly. It's the only thing I hate about summer.

1. Two very specific noises that my DC make/made. When DD was a baby she used to make a "muh-neerrrrrr" sound when she was falling asleep. DS makes a similar noise but it's more of a "merrrr". Both are teeth clenchingly awful.

1. Sniffing. Blow your nose! DS is only a baby so he can't help it... DD is 5 and should be better at blowing her nose but I'll let her off. But DH does it and it makes me want to scream. I do love him, honest!

1. Snoring or any similar "sleep noises" (loud breathing, teeth grinding). DM and MIL both snore like freight trains, as does DH if he has a cold. DC do as well. I've been in tears listening to any number of them snoring before.

There's probably lots more...

My DS doing his baby talk to his 8 month old sister.

The dog chewing his feet so his claws click together.

The dog licking his non existent balls at 2am and then retching up a furball

My children in the half hour before bed.

That was cathartic.

Alarms. any kind. I know they are supposed to annoy you but i really cannot bear them at all. They just stress me out so much, it is the speed of them as well as the noise.

Dh snoring when I have got up to dc for t e nine millionth time in one night.
Footballs being kicked against walls

My DH crunching food. It sounds like someone walking on a gravel footpath. He can't help it, I spoke to the hygienist about it and she told me some technical stuff about air pockets in the jaw etc, but no ideas for a cure.Sometimes I want to eat in a separate room, then he gets hurt feelings, and so it goes on.

Anyone's child whining "mumm-eee" on repeat.

Just hideous.

DH snoring and ds1's fake laugh.

The scraping noise from opening drawers in freezer. Makes me sick.

The wetting of lips. It’s the tup noise made with the tongue

iamnuts I hear you! Causes murders in my house

The only thing more annoying than having hiccups myself is listening to someone else having them...

DSDad has a clicky jaw. So every Time he chews, his jaw clicks.

That was a fun time when he first moved into family house 😠

Love him to pieces but I'm grateful I don't live with my parents anymore 😂
