Somewhere between the sound played by the lottery ticket scanners upon winning, an ice cream truck, a fire alarm, and some 80s video game effect sounds. Gosh it's annoying. It goes away. Then comes back. What is that? TikTok! I've noticed that almost exact same sound fairly often since it came to my explicit awareness, in social media video clips, and sometimes advertisements. I suspect it's about the most attention-grabbing sound, for most people.
