Noises that bother you.

[MJ5150]

I would add a sub genre to this one:

Parents negotiating with said whining/crying kid.

Makes me want to falcon punch their reproductive devices out of their body. Call it civic contraception.

Yes, this is also aggravating.
Watching parents with inferior parenting skills is aggravating and sad at the same time.

They got paid to do that. Just sayin' ...

That machine is just awful. I am just starting a geology program, and am now having second thoughts.

Not all geologists do environmental soil sampling. As I said, I was in the biz for over 35 years and never did that. Now pile driving - that's that on steroids with thick diesel smoke pouring down.

 

[petrus61]

The sound of motorcycles with overly enthusiastic riders. I know some motorcyclists are obnoxious for the sake of being obnoxious, so it's not the sound of motorcycles so much as it is the particular person in control of one. Also any guitarist or bass player that doesn't mute while tuning. People yelling and being hostile toward one another automatically invokes an inner rage for me, especially if I don't know the people in question. That's a weird one I can't explain my reaction to and should probably seek professional council on, though it's not like I just jump into strangers arguments. I'm just annoyed by angry, loud people and they should shut up.

 

[Fretless1!]

Car horns in a commercial on the radio. It's startling and I start looking around to see why someone's blowing.

This gets me, every time. It even happens in a lot of music.

That, and sirens on the radio.

 

[PWRL]

Chewing. I have severe misophonia.
Also, excessive bag crinkling, some splooshing sounds, and the sound of dry leaves on concrete, as well as a bench brush across dry paper.

Also, the noisy, sloppy eating of hard candy. Hard candy eaters need to stay far away from me. Don't make me go Super-Saiyan.

 

[bluesblaster]

Anyone using a chainsaw as an instrument in a rock tune.

we did a show with those dudes once, Jackyl I think was the name of the band

 

[BAG]

When stopped at a red light, the sound of screeching tires and brakes right behind me.

Especially when i'm on my motorbike. Luckily these days the closes set of traffic lights is over 200km from where i live.

 

[russosborne]

Country music in any shape, flavor, or form.
Hip hop as well.

[David Jayne]

Big rig 'Jake' brakes. You can tell that some drivers step on them just to make the noise. I want to smash them. That, and stupid loud Harley pipes at full flatulence mode. Again, lame.

 

[catcauphonic]

Oh yea, radio and telly commercials are usually a terrible disturbance

 

[Stewie26]

When I pick up the phone and someone starts blabbing trying to sell me something.

TV.. a furniture store keeps playing TEXT sounds on a commercial.....all in a row......Drives me CRAZY

I'm with you on the sound of chewing. There's a series of Kit-Kat bar commercials that make a version of the Kit-Kat jingle with various people crunching on them, and it makes my stomach turn.

Saxophones. Tonally they seem to drown out other acoustic Instruments in a Jazz band. IMO Charlie Parker sounds like a goose being tortured.

Lol! I love the sax and play a little myself (very little...)

 

[Groove Doctor]

Lol! I love the sax and play a little myself (very little...)

Too many bad Sax players over decades have ruined it for me. They're the Jazz equivalent of that Guitarist that plays too loud or blarts pentatonics over everything.

I do love the Sax on Pulp Fiction. Comanche by The Revels in the basement scene. Can't post YouTube clip for obvious reasons.

 

[Tom Bomb]

The nagging of legally deaf drummers bleating incessantly, "Turn it up. Turn it up."

This is why they went deaf in the first place And I'll not be a part of it.
I'm keeping my hearing, what's left of it. Thank you very much.

Then there's the neighbors to consider. And the fuzz

 

[Xandrell]

Any brass horn, it's the same as a car horn to me. Harmonica's irritate me as well. Although I like bagpipes and flutes.
