Buzzing Insects
Nails on a Chalkboard
Snoring (although my parents say I do it)
Chewing with mouth open/Humming while chewing (I can't stand that humming and smacking :wall:)
Also, constant hard typing on the keyboards on computers (There's no need for a THUMP! THUMP! THUMP! THUMP! sound. If you can't type properly, don't type at all.)

Buzzing: insect, mechanical, electrical - whatever the source it drives me insane.

Dogs barking.

Slurpy/smacking eating/drinking noises.

Men with high-pitched voices.

Anything that whines.

Oh god yeah! spare a thought for us as we have wild cockatoos here that fly in flocks that produce what I describe as a banshee screech! my daughter nearly has a meltdown when she hears them flying overhead.

the sound the surgical knife makes when you sharpen it...

Stupid school, buy us more blades.
Fed up with sharpening our blades after every dissection.
