Noises that piss You off.

[itsthewordsmorethenanything]

Help settle a discussion between between me and my husband.
I think scraping your cutlery on your plate is the equivalent of licking your plate.. The foods gone, no need for all of the scraping to get every last morsel of food in your gob!
He thinks my intolerance to food noises is getting out of hand.
I will admit I've always been sensitive to people chewing/slurping but regardless I still believe scraping is bad table manners, anyone else, or am I really being unreasonable?

• For context we have had chicken salad for dinner, he had finished but was scraping mayonnaise left on the plate onto his fork.

Oh I feel your pain. Misophonia is worse than PMT!

It's also 100 times more amplified when I HAVE PMT 😂

That really high-pitched tuneless whistling practiced by men of a certain age? OMG yes 🤫

Today I discovered my abhorrent hatred of buskers. 4 different ones with opposing genres belting out at the maximum volume along one high street. An assault of my senses was an understatement,

I also admit I am hormone enraged today!

owls. We have two that live near us and they do off-timed 'woohoos' into the night and its really hard to sleep

That bffvvv noise they play to show off the Dolby sound at the beginning of the cinema. Its supposed to sound deep and modern and edgy and probably feel it on the seats. It just makes me feel like someone needs to turn the volume down.

Same @Blanketpolicy I cannot abide the sound of metal scrapping on metal. I ask people not to scrape their cutlery. If they do, I don't invite them back. It causes a physical disgust and rage, I get goosebumps thinking about it.

Eldest DC HATES a plate scrape.

Licking 🤢

Could people put trigger warnings before posting about spitting please? I might vomit, cannot even read about it. ⚠️

Snoring.

The sound of people eating.

Kids screeching.

The sound my cats and dog make when grooming themselves, I love them but that sound really grates on me!

People who constantly clear their throat or sniff....

The neighbour is drilling... like literally now... at almost 9pm.

That's mine at the moment.

My husband eating. Sitting on the sofa this evening eating a yoghurt breathing noisily through his nose and making little grunt sounds 🤯🤯🤯

COUGHING

Motorbikes on sunny weekends.

Think I have misophonia - a condition which creates a decreased tolerance to certain sounds. Like beeps, whistling, dripping tap, lip smacking etc.

At work, we have a squeaking pair of automatic doors at the entrance and it drives me mad. Most of my colleagues don't hear it and think I am crazy.

Probably my dyslexia affects this too.

Yup, I'm another who detests spitting.
I also get irritated by:
The noise of our fridge.
Humming/buzzing of (ex neighbours) hot tub; like the fridge hum but multiplied umpteen times over.
Thumping of footballs/basketballs for hours on end.
My DH doing weirdly squeaky/hissy yawns that sound like a jet engine starting up (he always seems to do it when I'm engrossed in reading a book)
My DH crunching crisps when I'm not.
The cat washing herself on the bed in the middle of the night
The cat ratching on the litter tray in the middle of the night

Snoring. It gives me the rage.

God your step son sounds awful, does he have a girlfriend.. Has anyone ever told him to stop eating like a sodding goat?!?

Slow smacking eating. Man in work does that. I hate him bitterly for it.
The high pitched shriek that small kids and some women make.
Tinny noise of phone videos without headphones.
Drink slurping.
Self service till- constant beep beep please take your groceries assistance needed X12 machines.
And yes, plate scraping. We were taught that's rude.

There is a customer who has false teeth - not fitted properly he grinds his mouth to keep them in place.

We call him Mr Grind

Do you have particularly scrapy plates? There are some that are slightly rough and the sound is just horrible, but if the glaze is nice and shiny there's no issue. Wondering if new plates could restore marital harmony!

A shovel scraping along concrete.
Death metal music.
Mil.and sil voices

People cracking their knuckles, makes me physically uncomfortable I cannot bear it!

Noisy idiots in back firing cars at weekend.

Eating with mouth open, slurping tea, cracking knuckles, kissing lips, hoiking and spitting phlegm.
Just a fraction of annoying sounds, I have so many.
