    One of the printers at work gives a loud, prolonged, high-pitched beep every time you use it. In an empty hotel lobby, this sound is nearly I intolerable.

    My pet peeve #1: People chewing with their mouth open/smacking their lips. Makes me see red. I know it's a problem, as it seems that the majority of the population do this.

    the sound of smacking lips when chewing.... for all our sake, not only chew with your mouth shut, but please PLEASE make an effort to not smack the lips together if you insist on chewing with your mouth open!

    Clocks with a second hand, people eating, any repetitive rattling/jostling noise (usually in a car), typing loudly, the microwave buzzer, loud breathing, gum chewing. Typing that all out makes me sound a little bit crazy, actually.

    I know a guy who eats soup all the time and slurps it out of the spoon. It fills my heart with rage.

    Telephone ringing! It's fine after two seconds, but after that, PICK UP THE DAMN PHONE!

    Inhaling food. When people literally do this as if they have been stranded on an island for years, yet they're 500 pounds.

    Most of this stuff doesn't bug me...surprisingly.

    I hate the sound of cartoons though!! Even as a kid/preteen, I would request my parents pick me up early from sleepovers so I would not have to listen to that (never liked watching them either).

    Open mouth chewing. I would punt a baby if it would make it go away.

    Open mouth chewing really really really does my nut in... And when people don't realise they're doing it... and think they have perfect table manners.......
