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.
