Default Most annoying sounds

Barking dogs when it's constant

Someone eating apple near me when I'm not eating

Sound of Roomba vacuum or dishwasher when I'm trying to fall asleep

My children fighting

New construction near the house

....

We are trying to sell a house that backs to a road. It's like white noise once you get used to it. These other noises annoy me! Not the road!

Default Re: Most annoying sounds

smacking of food or gum

screaming tantrums in stores.
(esp if it is an adult. LOL)

Base blaring so loudly that it shakes my windows from the neighbors across the street or from traffic passing the house.

Dogs barking all hours of the night and day due to being neglected in their yard.

This is making me feel so much better!

The road is just a road. Not the most annoying sound the buyers will hear in their new home. Hope we get some buyer's soon!!!
