mindless whistling. mindless giggling. mindless anything.

Whistling with dramatic vibrato. One of the supervisors at work does it for long stretches and I just want to rip my ears off.

Jackhammers busting up cement all the time in summer
AND the creep with the streetsweeping machine going up and down the same street over and over the same night, keeping people awake while he puts in overtime for nothing!

The sound a Semi makes when it has to do an “emergency downshift” because (yet another) mindless fool has cut them off or has forgotten it takes a much longer distance for them to stop. It’s actually quite horrible and is sometimes followed by the sounds of metal & plastic being crushed. ( & no I am not a truck driver, I just live too close to California I-5. Seems like we hear that noise more each year).

One mosquito buzzing the bedroom, and my ear, while I’m trying to sleep.

Repetitive noises. Like an unanswered ringing phone (cell or otherwise), car alarms, windchimes, and the like. Oh, and really, really, really stupid people ESPECIALLY if they are elected into positions of power.
