    Reversing trucks. “For safety”!? I don’t need to hear a truck reversing half a block away on the other side of the road! If you could sell a sound laser for trucks, you’d start a new business.

      This right here. I lived near a narrow road, where a building project was being realized. The trucks al had to reverse the entire road.

      The construction noice didn’t bother me, but the beeping did.

      I know it’s for the visually impaired, but it clashed with my impairment.

    That ‘untz untz untz’ sound that techno/ravers emit from their mouth, in a pathetic attempt to mimic their techno music.

    It sounds like a cat trying to vomit, and literally starts triggering my own reflex to puke as well… 🤮

    For the techno fans out there, I have nothing inherently against the music style, but your bodily organs do NOT lend themselves to the same sound effects as the synthesized instruments in your preferred choice of music!

        Nah my dude, back when techno was seemingly more popular, like in the mid 2000s to mid 2010s or so, all the actual techno nerds that enjoyed the music, created their own techno in Fruity Loops, and/or loved playing DDR (Dance Dance Revolution), would all make this sound when discussing their music interests and works (and game scores).

        It wasn’t a mockery, the verbal sound literally came from the techno/raver scene. They were often fucked up on MDMA, LSD, and who the hell knows whatever else, for them it’s all a fun sensory overload…

        Thank goodness I haven’t heard the ‘untz’ sound verbally emitted in over a decade, but I bet there are still some techno fans that still do it.

            I can respect it as a rare brief short joke these days, but seriously back around 2008 to 2014 or so, at least 2 other employees plus the boss loved techno and would make that sound verbally at least 4 times a day.

    Which noise… Hmm.

    How about all of them? I feel like Spiderman needing to dull/focus his senses but without the superpower benefits.

    I am not autistic, but I have pretty severe misophonia. Sand paper is this worst. Just thinking about it is uncomfortable.

    Fucking cars. Especially Subarus and Toyotas, which have an unpleasant tone. They beep every button push on the remote, so unlocking all the doors is two pushes BEEP BEEEP BEEEP BEEEEP! Then people push the lock button more than once as they leave BEEP. BEEP… BEEEP!

    My car doesn’t need to beep. I’ll turn around and look at it and see the lights flashing.

    Also, my fucking dishwasher. If I program it to start in 5 hrs when electricity is cheap, and then add something, I have 3 seconds to add it before it soft cancels the cycle and I have to push a button to make it continue for some inexplicable reason. If I close it while it’s in this mode it beeps constantly for 20 seconds. If it wasn’t bolted down everyone in the family has had a time when they would have taken the opportunity to throw it out the door.

    I can also relate to the chewing; if I’m eating it covets other’s noise and I survive, but I can’t stand hearing other’s mastication. Also breathing heavily. A family member has asthma and fucked up sinuses and refuses to see a doctor, so they just mouth-breathe panting all day long (and don’t have their phone silenced either).

    Random douchebags roaring through the streets in their modded cars, especially after lights out. Don’t even get me started on the folks who do that and crank up their stereos all the way blasting music.

      I feel we should be allowed to catch these drivers, strap them to a chair at ear level of their idiotic car and have it run full throttle in their ear until the gas runs out.

        Should be confiscated on sight (sound?) and tossed into a portable metal crusher.

    A phone on vibrate. Getting a text or notification and the thing vibrating. Started pissing me off more and more. Its rewiring our brains like Pavlovs dogs. Every time you hear it, it makes you check your phone and connects you back into the never ending flow of information.
    Fucking disconnect, breathe, brrrr…brrrr…

      I don’t have kids so this might not work for you, but for me getting a nice pair of noise cancelling headphones has been a real godsend. They were a little pricey but being able to just have a silent bubble you can turn on whenever you want is great. They also completely cancel out the background sound of being on a plane.

    I watched an urban exploration video the other day and they walked into a room where there were Christmas lights hanging and on with like 10 alarms all beeping differently.

    I had to stop the video. I refuse to be subjected to that criminal abuse.
