    The smoke alarms all going off at once due to one weak battery and then that security sire starts! I have PTSD due to this! Think about that sound every night before I sleep.

    It hasn't happened in over 20 years, but the worst way to wake up is my dad singing. He used to burst into my room singing "Wake up, wake up, the sun is up. The dew is on the buttercup. Wake up, wake up!" or my other favorite, "Good morning to you, good morning to you. You look like a monkey, and you smell like one too."

    My 7 yr old granddaughter gives what I call "attack hugs"...her fave is when you are asleep, she pounces on your head while squeezing as hard as she can.....funny at times, not so much when you're sleeping!

    OP I take it you don't have kids? Once you do uninterrupted sleep becomes a distant memory...

    Yours must be young. I have 3 teenagers and I promise there is light at the end of the tunnel. Sometimes it 2 in the afternoon before anyone is stirring and I'm not gonna lie, I like it.

    Being the father of 10 kids with the youngest now firmly in his teens. Having no one up until noon is quite nice. However there is the problem with noises at 1am because they still haven't gone to bed

    Walking into my room hitting a Metal trash can lid with a baton was my worst. Thank god I wasn't armed. I might have went to prison and discovered a whole new horrible way of being woken up :#

    When you've been talking in your sleep and you wake up with your wife's hands around your neck yelling "Who's Donna?"

    This actually happened in my house, with my EX..years ago...he was moaning "Juanita" in his sleep. Juanita was the dumb, homeless girl I allowed to stay in our house. Needless to say, my ex woke up with a nosebleed.

    Whenever I have a sneaky lie in and my dog, Geoff, does that stupid insistent front paw jump at my head until I get up. I mean can he not just give a little woof like any other dog?

    Being surrounded by paramedics because you went into insulin shock while asleep.

    My mom grabs my feet when she tries to wake me up. Scares me awake. I hate it.

    The teenager who lives in the house behind you is sitting poolside and practicing Hootie & The Blowfish songs on his acoustic guitar. :flushed:

    Royal Marine training gave me a whole bunch of ways that would quite nicely add to this list.

    Ultimately, waking up exhausted with the prospect of another exhausting day ahead after a few hours sleep is the general trend!

    The sound of platform heels clicking gracefully on the kitchen tile floor and you go out there and there's 2 prostitutes trying to figure out the Keurig.

    Hearing super cheesy 80's music outside, only to realize that John Cusack is serenading you again with a damn boombox.

    I'm guessing that a cattle prod wouldn't be too enjoyable....for most people.

    For me? Being woken up by the M-Div LPO while I was on upper level watch.
