I manorly hated the noise when I was little. However I was kinda forced to be around loud noises in my teens(helping my dad a little who worked in construction & with him doing various DIY projects at home) & the three jobs I had were in noisy enviornments(washing dishes in a restaurant & doing custodial stuff in retail while the stores were open working around floor scrubber & buffer machines) so nowadays I'm not majorly bothered by loud noises like balloons popping though I still find them annoying.

My girlfriend who's on the spectrum has always been majorly bothered by balloons popping. Me & Cass both think she can not be desensitised to loud noises like I was.

Not a fan of it but it's still better than people who try to sneak up behind you to startle you
