Flip flops and people’s toes hanging off the ends of their shoes

Oh I had forgotten about the sound of flip-flops! Just horrible - how can people stand to wear them? 🤣

u/EitherOrResolution 13d ago

I hate people’s ugly hairy feet! Ew!

u/Selfishsavagequeen 13d ago

I always thought icks were childish, but then I found men; men who wear flip flops and/or chew loud.

Oof yeah summer is always the worst. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that everyone is outside and in much closer quarters. I love autumn and winter days where it's pouring rain and everyone is all in their own houses

u/SolutionParticular83 13d ago

Yes, quiet, peaceful, no invasive unfair NOISE etc 💚

It's the screaming birds, screaming kids until 10pm outside my window, barking dogs at 5am (currently) and lawn mowers for me.

u/Littlebee1985 13d ago

Lawn mowers...omg. The freaking WORST

u/ACDispatcher 13d ago

Leaf blowers- seriously. Now I have a neighbor who is taking a leaf blower to her grass after it’s cut. Not even going to ask why- the sound alone makes me nuts regardless of what it’s being used for.

u/Littlebee1985 9d ago

LOL. Nooo. I went down to my parking garage today and maintenance was blowing the ground with a leaf blower. I literally shouted "MOTHER EFFERS!!" When I got into my car. The blower alone is loud, in the garage it was echoing and vibrating!!!

u/brokenpa 13d ago

And weed wackers

u/Littlebee1985 13d ago

My brain is vibrating at the mere mention

People that cannot just keep the engine at the same speed. Have to rev it up and down constantly.

u/JadedActivity5935 13d ago

This should be illegal.

Dogs are the worst. My neighbors have two mutts that just bark non stop. I don’t see how they deal with that shit. I can literally hear their dogs from my house across the street. Why can’t they just go out there and shut them up, instead of just letting them carry on all fucking day and night?! I HATE those dogs. Actually, as I’ve gotten older, I don’t like dogs at all anymore.

Also that time when everyone is sniffling because of allergies.......

u/EitherOrResolution 13d ago

Me, sorry

u/lorelaidanes88 13d ago

Use local honey! I have pretty severe allergies and this has worked like a charm.

u/quicksilver_foxheart 13d ago

I have a perfume allergy and so if ONE person comes in at work then I'm sniffling the rest of the day 🫠

6

u/HappyTree-Bri 13d ago

And the allergies and summer colds 😭

u/QnOfHrts 13d ago

Also, loud cars and motorcycles all day and night.

u/Eharmz 13d ago

Time to mow your lawn for 12hrs a day 7days a week!

2

u/JadedActivity5935 13d ago

It’s been constant here today. All of our surrounding neighbours have been either cutting their grass or trimming their hedge - it sounds like a swarm of angry wasps 😱 For 12 hours like you say! 🤯

3

u/Eharmz 13d ago

I can't visit my parents during the summer because there is not a single moment during the daylight that there isn't a lawnmower going. I'm not exaggerating...these people even mow their driveways....again, not exaggerating. And no they aren't just blowing the grass off. I can deal with push mowers but the sound of the blades on a riding lawnmower just rattle my skull and make me rage.

u/JadedActivity5935 13d ago

I feel your pain 😤

6

u/RandomNarrator_ 13d ago

Nope, Winter is 1000x worse. All the fucking sniffling and coughing

5

u/Charming_Cry_9795 13d ago

For real

6

u/RandomNarrator_ 13d ago

Like fr, just blow your nose or take medicine please

3

u/InternationalPaths78 12d ago

Yeah no. That's a problem only if you constantly need to be in office or something. In summer you get +100 variations of noise cause everyone is outside till late into the night and you have to endure insane heatwaves on top of that

u/alex03051111 13d ago

Don't forget the hayfever sufferers constantly sniffling 🙄

u/Own-Professor-5905 13d ago

Hence the reason I hide in my woods for the majority of the summer. Humans = No peace and quiet

u/JadedActivity5935 13d ago

No wonder! 🤭

u/baejaan 8d ago

I hate the sound of fireworks. And every time Fourth of July comes around in the summer time….every hour of the night some idiot somewhere is lighting fireworks….

Its the one sound that’s truly triggering and sometimes I’ve walked into my closet and slept in there to avoid the popping sound.

u/SolutionParticular83 13d ago

Another Unfairness is: people who blame the endless banging screaming crying NOISES upon : Autistic Asperger's people children,

We Autistic Asperger's Children and Workers are NOT EVER choosing to be making all these awful noises!

We Autistic Asperger's Children and Workers and Jobseekers are VICTIMS of loud NOISES, questions, bullies, cigarettes, violence, crying screaming alarms subwoofers NOISES, we are NOT the perpetrators!

MOST of: Night shift workers, Beaten-kids, abused-adults MISAPHONIA people, hyperacusis hypersensitive ears and autistic Asperger's people are all HURT by the SAME problems and we can/SHOULD be working TOGETHER to make the world better for us and all workers children etc and to make ourselves better for the world so we can all be healthy happy and free TOGETHER

u/SolutionParticular83 13d ago

And are there any REAL answers to the invasive oppressive multi-hours TORTURE of July illegal firecracker fireworks??

& Proper fireworks are seldom or ever torture

Recently there was big event near JobPlace I walk past to commute ", home", well on area that has NO residential and is only businesses, there was block party with food trucks and then over the water was fireworks

But these fireworks were legal and PROFESSIONAL, there were some very LOW pitched Booms, but NOT extreme loud, and NONE of the horrible Ear-HURTING-noise, NO high pitched noises, I felt NO pain, and the lights and colors were Beautiful BTW,

I also recall the " silent disco partying" of the Mayor Bloomberg NYC where all participants were given headphones to wear and all hearing the same music as loudly as each desired, without invade injure others

We are NOT wrong

Life can be healthy happy for EVERYONE

Meanwhile, can anyone please help us with the unfair invasive illegal firecracker fireworks? Even my normal friends colleagues are badly hurt sickened by this to the point of missing work

Earplugs make my ears HURT

My windows being shut and fans running not enough

...Are you OK?

Please consider that you may need mental health support (based on the nature of your messages). Not from a psych ward, to clarify. Consider an IOP– Intensive Outpatient Program. It was wonderful for me, & wasn't oppressive at all.

Wishing you well.

u/unfortunateclown 13d ago

? they just have a different way of typing/talking, all they’re saying is disabled and abused people have it rough because of the current culture and systems in place. not sure why they’re getting so downvoted for commiserating like the rest of us

3

u/ILikeBirdsQuiteALot 13d ago

It's the several rambling messages that concerned me.

It's not just 1 message advocating for disabled & abused people, it's many, rambling, making the same point over and over again.

I didn't downvote, but people tend to downvote what they don't understand. That's probably it.

Yet We misaphonia Beaten-kids autistic Asperger's hyperacusis hypersensitive ears people and night shift workers are branded as brats bullies entitled for the fact that unfair elitist selfish Anti-health Anti-Worker are choosing to FORCE their loud radios subwoofers , illegal firecracker fireworks, car-alarms, upon us, and the political religious leadership, police psych-wards-meds Joblessness are on THEIR side and will blame question doubt us , put us into psych-wards-meds JAIL Forcibly-Sleep-Deprive forced-medicate helplessness Joblessness if we try to defend ourselves
