- Controversial: Children who are allowed to scream continuously. Didn't use to be the case
- Leafblowers. And it feels that their users are the kind that like to rev a 250cc constantly. Not to mention the pollution of a 2stroke engine.
- Trucks backing up. (Newer ones have a much less penetrating noise)
- People honking at all hours of the day
- People closing their car and hitting the close button 23 times as they walk to their apartment, which causes the car to honk every time.
- People who remove straighten parts of their exhaust.

- The Amazon van that beeps every time it goes into park, because it passes by reveres (D -> R -> P) so it beeps. And you think he would park once.

- lostlogin 4y ago- Leaving phone keyboard clicks turned on. - The crazy for mounting stolen school PA megaphones on cars and push bikes, often just to play Celine Dion. - Flat smoke detector beeps. If I can’t find the damn thing after 20 beeps, please just catch fire. I don’t want the house anymore. The person who makes a device that mutes noise for your home (or even just bedroom) will transform cities for the better.
- antisthenes 4y agoFunny, but dogs barking and children crying (on conference calls and in general) don't really evoke from me a visceral negative reaction, compared to other sounds (e.g. loud motorbikes and 2-stroke leafblowers/lawn mowers)
