I HATE the sound of fingers on a camera when its recording. It's like a sharp plasticy rubby noise and then if you hit the mic it sounds like a ball rubbing on foam.

FUCK it bothers me!

I hate that high pitched sound when you rub two pieces of fabric together.

Also hate the sound of trucks beeping and the hoons with their fart cans.

Dudes making ridiculous grunting noises during climax.



Also, people popping their bubble gum during Lecture. Fucking STOP.

Aside from the typical inherently unpleasant tones, shovel on concrete, dry fingers touching hard foam, anything touching corrugated tin, fingernails/chalkboard, emergency broadcast alert tones etc. I see what you're going for.

-the sound my tv makes during those unnecessarily long birth scenes on television shows & movies.

-most peoples' ringtones, especially when they delay answering to let the song finish.

-women talking while when I'm eating. That sounds worse than it is- maybe the human male voice would bother me as much, but it seems like they generally don't talk when I eat. Or I can't remember it. Or maybe they're always eating around me too.

-superfluously loud exhausts (i get the performance angle of some, & safety for motorcycles etc. but I actually know motorists who, even if all else were equal, would prefer, would pay more to hear it. I'm weird, willing to pay more for LESS noise.)

^is the all time worst. The sound of every radio in town switching stations. No one can listen to the entire 30 seconds, but see if you can make it to the man's verse.

I don't like grinding high pitch noise such as finger on a board or grinding brake noise (when metal met metal).

This, oh this. Primarily, paper napkins. You're the only person besides me that I have known to mention that.

Loud shoes, particular women's loud shoes. How can you not be the slightest self-conscience or concerned about it.

Coughing. This guy next to me at work coughs every 30 seconds for the past 6 months. Ever since this has happened, I can't stand it anywhere I go.

Trying to use the eraser on a pencil when there is no eraser left. I shudder just thinking about it.
