Chewing gum being mauled round and round and slapped around the inside of someone's mouth is revolting.
My ex who breathed heavily through his nose, often with a slight whistle. grrrrrr

I used to tell my son n daughter HURRY UP AND EAT THEM when they ate packet of crisps, which was annoying frequent ..... grrrrrrr

I also dislike crisps or sweet wrappers in cinema or theatre. Why can't people eat before or after the show? Will they starve.
The other thing I dislike is the noise of high heeled shoes clip clopping.

Or blowing their nose! Either way really!

People sniffing instead of bowing their nose.

Not that I'm relaxing in the garden right now of course.

** wind chimes!! whilst trying to relax in the garden, also can here them most days when my bedroom window is open.

They seem to be such little demons, but the slight puff of wind send the high pitched sound all around.

Yapping or barking dogs ?

I can't stand the sound of crisp packets crackling either, and always used to tell the children to put them in a bowl. A few years ago I was with my now adult children queueing for a ferry, and the woman behind was eating crisps - my son whispered in my ear 'put them in a bowl!'. So funny, she had no idea why we were all laughing.

I also dislike people eating with their mouth open, especially when they talk with their mouth full. Tea slurpers are the worst!

Can be anything with me. I think I have sound hypersensivity. I don't have it all the time, but it can be really bad if I'm trying to work. Noise can completely prevent me from concentrating. I can often overcome it by wearing headphones and playing white noise for work. It also affects my sleep. I have to have silence.

Anybody eating with their mouth open.

Ok, i start ... the sound of a rustling crisp packet
Grrrrrrrrrrrr.

My hearing zones in on nothing but the crisp packet, but of course when i am eating crisps ( which i do everyday) my hearing zones in on anything and everything but not the crisp packet i am rustling haaa... weird confused
