10 Sounds That Drive Me Bonkers

  1. The background music for "How It Works" on Discovery. Bad porn music + 80s videogame "soundtracks" = me leaving the room.
  2. Endlessly barking dogs
  3. Car horns
  4. Whining
  5. Arguments
  6. People yelling into their cell phones
  7. Babies/Children who need attention but have been ignored so long that they're desperate
  8. Stealth giggling. Call me paranoid. ;-)
  9. People yapping about non-work stuff when I'm trying to focus on something (in the workroom, i.e. my "office")
  10. Squeaky chalkboards
OK, so these are arranged more by location than anything else, although #1 is definitely #1-most-annoying! After that, it's mostly home-based noises, and then not-home, and then specifically work.

Good lordy! THIS was just following me around the grocery store: "Babies/Children who need attention but have been ignored so long that they're desperate." Oy. Ellen

Yep. Discovery does have some insanely bad theme music!! Arguments and ignored children make my hair stand up. Lovely to meet you!
