The most annoying sounds.

[IconBasser]

the sound of one of your kids knocking on the door while "getting busy" with the missus.

"Go away! We're baking a cake!"

 

[lunarpollen]

Any sound that babies make
The sound AdAware makes when it finishes a scan
The theme song to Newton's Apple
The buzz of a yellow jacket

those are only a few on my list

 

[MatticusMania]

Doors slamming, makes me contemplate murder. That eeennn-eeennn-eeennn-eeennn alarm sound is straight from the gates of hell but it does its job I guess.

I used to wake up to that every morning. Once I stopped using the alarm clock and started using the one on my phone my life has improved tenfold. Much nicer waking up to MJ's Billy Jean.

 

[Thunderscreech]

I share a cubicle with a jackass with a squeeky chair. He thinks the epitome of humor is to set up a long continuous squeek while I'm on the phone trying to solve a customers problem. I really hate that guy.......

maybe you should unleash some long and continuous chemical warfare...

I've stopped being grouchy since my cd's started waking me up. Somehow it's so much easier to get woke up by pleasant music.


Since we've hit the subject of cars, I seriously hope that anything over the noise pollution limit gets a ticket. Diesels, pick-ups with glass packs, cars blaring rap, etc. all need to be wiped from the face of the earth. I like to listen to jazz and blues when I drive (to diversify tastes) and I leave the volume low enough so I can hear myself think. The last thing I want to happen is for someone to roll up beside me blaring rap bass so loud that my water does the T-rex shake from Jurassic Park.

This is a thread to post about which sounds you find instantly and exceedingly annoying. The kind of sound that goes straight into your brain, bypasses the frontal lobe, and immediately begins triggering pain receptors. The kind of sound that makes you simultaneously cringe in pain and turn into a wall of inexorable hate and destruction.

Celine Dion singing!

 

[Drewbacca]

The dying-pig-squealing sound that my old Kaspersky antivirus used to make when it detected a "threat"
The sound of styrofoam being broken up/rubbed against plastic
Needlessly loud motorcylces

 

[Kwesi]

vuvuzula

anyone bitching...

add to that barking dogs and anything resembling crying.

 

[L-A]

Loud chewing.

Or the labored breathing of badly out of shape people recovering from getting up ten minutes ago. I don't want to hear their bodily complaints.

 

[6jase5]

1. An out of tune guitar
2. Nickelback
3. The sound of an unamplified string coming from my bass rigs when the red light should mean thunder.

 

[Big Daddy Mac]

1)There's an elevator in our office makes an awful noise if some jerk holds the door open too long.
2)The theme music from M*A*S*H.
3)The Cars

 

[Buchada Azeda]

Oh man... HUGE +1. I used to live in a basement apartment on a very busy main street, and these things would drive me absolutely bonkers at night. Just a whole bunch of "UNCE-UNCE-UNCE-UNCE-BRRRRRRRRRRZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZPPPPPPPPPPTTTTTTTTTT-UNCE-UNCE-UNCE-UNCE" at all hours of the God Damned night...

Not to mention the sound of rattling fiberglass ground kits... what a bunch of goofs...

+2

I just don't know why these guys spend tons of cash on state-of-the-art soundsystems just to hear 128kbps mp3s of annoying music.

Oh, did I mention Nickelback yet?

 

[groooooove]

the electric guitar.

 

[Yakob]

High pitched noises and someone reiterating to me what they just said for the twelfth time over the telephone.

 

[Jools4001]

the sound of one of your kids knocking on the door while "getting busy" with the missus.

What? You mean Mid-Hump?

For me it's the sound of TB DB'ers whining

 

[tom once dead]

Babys crying.

People whistling.

 

[bassistkll]

My neighbors' party music, every weekend somebody's got a birthday or something. Loud through a crappy stereo with nothing musically interesting happening; I, V, sometimes IV chords, always in major keys, 4/4 or 3/4 meter, though there are occasionally good tuba lines. I might appreciate it a bit more if I understood Spanish.

 

[JacoLesFlea]

When my girlfreind would sneeze it was a ahhhhCHOOOO!! with the choo part being super high pitched and loud..when I first heard it I was like ***? At first it was cute then it was embarassing especially when she did it infront of freinds and family....yhea that was an anoying sound

 

[JacoLesFlea]

the electric guitar.

Serious?

 

[emor]

For me it's the sound of TB DB'ers whining

I experience it more as harrumphing.
