What are some of the worst sounds in the world?

Two cats squaring off gets my vote.
 

Other than the whizzing of a round zipping past my ear, the spine ratcheting sound of a fingernail grating on a chalk board
 

Automatic fire, and that's in the UK. For you guys it must be ten times worse.

As a wartime kid the hairs on the back pf my neck still prickle when I hear an air raid warning, even on film.
 
What are some of the worst sounds in the world ?


Incoming mortars and small arms fire.

Someone yelling, "Gooks in the wire !".

The sound of someone screaming, "Medic !.....Medic !.
 
The roar, and then the numerous breaking sounds, and car alarms going off, and random creaks and bangs that accompany an earthquake.
 
Morons who are old enough t know better, accelerating past your house at 1 in the morning on motorcycles with open exhausts. I used to do it when in my teens but had enough consideration as I grew older to realize that everyone didn't enjoy the blast of sound, in the dead of the night.
 
Until a few months ago I lived in the City for most of my life. I'm used to loud noises and living in a row home being able to even hearing my neighbors TV's. The only thing that really bothered me was the sound of an ambulance or Fire Engine. Since most of my family lived near me I would always worry if I heard those sirens. Now living in the suburbs the sound of a train running gets on my nerves.
 
People being happy. By JINGO,that's annoying! How DARE people wander along smiling,wearing 'Kiss Me Quick' hats and licking ice-cream cones,smiling and chatting as if they had not a care in the world! I say it's time we stopped all this lightweight happiness,this jovial attitude,this laughing,jocular,friendly pretense. Bah,HUMBUG!
 
The constant tapping sound of a basketball hitting the driveway and the bang it makes when it hits the board in the back of the hoop.. All the kids have hoops and just when I want to read in peace the tapping starts. Drives me crazy.
