1. Your Name Shouted in a Crowded Room

Normally we’re comfortable hearing a person say our name. Hearing our names makes us feel noticed, helps us to better engage. When our name is shouted out amidst a group of strangers it’s cringe-worthy!
“Hold it down! We’re right here!”

2. A Drunkard’s Babble

Boozehounds are loud, obnoxious and annoying. They can easily hurt the ears with their slurred words and random expletives. They are the equivalent of nails on a chalkboard.
“OMG take it to rehab!”

3. The Home Alone Doggy

Why do they abandon that sweet puppy all day long? It’s unnerving and sad. Every time the animal howls, an angel weeps. Every time it barks to let us know that it’s lonely and needs love, somewhere in the world, the rains begin.
“Pet your pooch!”

4. Constant Construction

What the hell are they building over there? It would be fine if they pounded the nails when you’re not at home, but the jackhammer jacking around early morning is unacceptable.
“I didn’t sign up for this!”

5. Cats Doing the Nasty

.
The screeching sound of kitties having sex is probably as bad as a convict on Death Row screaming from his prison cell that he didn’t commit the crime. Cats have spikes on their penises. That may be why it’s not the same kind of lovemaking us humans are used to.
“Hello Kitty, GET A ROOM!”

.

6. Alarm Clock

Sure, we are the ones who set the clock, but the sound is annoying and we don’t want to get up just because we have to. And surely we don’t want a machine telling us what to do. The snooze button gives us back our power, but only for 10 minutes. It’s a constant conundrum of whether to dominate the device or cave in to our daily commitments.
“Hey clock, you’re not the boss of me!
.
.

7. Squeaky Shoes

.
Anyone who has ever gotten an earful of someone’s sweaty feet stepping in shoddy footwear across the linoleum hopefully has an iPod to block it out with. This squeaking is also an earsore for the person who is wearing the offending shoes. No one wants everyone to hear their every step.
“Yo, get new shoes!”

.
.

8. The Dentist’s Drill

Hideous. But hey, you ate crap, didn’t floss so now your teeth are rotting like last week’s fast food forgotten in the back of the fridge. We all have to put up with this scary noise, but my goodness, it sucks!
“We. Must. Floss.”

9. Ice Cream Truck Jingle

Ice cream is so yummy, but this archaic neighborhood delivery system can put us off our sweets. It seems most ice cream trucks only have one song and it’s not a full one, it simply loops a 30 second part over and over constantly and then over again. Crazy! Newbies to this noise often think it’s cozy, homey and charming until they hear it for the 100th time.
“I scream, you scream, we all scream to ban ice cream music!”
.
.

10. Spontaneous Flatulence

When silence is broken by the bothersome ruckus of someone’s bowels, we get upset. Some may find it amusing until the waftrons float past their noses. The worst part of spontaneous flatulence is being startled by something so low brow. If, for instance, Mozart was playing from a passing car we might appreciate getting our art-on for a second. Hearing flatulence, or even a burp, is not like that. It’s more like unexpectedly hearing a pervert unzip his pants or being pointedly tapped on the shoulder by the IRS man.
“Plug it up!”
