My new neighbors have an attachment on their doorknob and every time someone turns the knob the sound goes off. No idea why? Hearing impaired? Perhaps a light flashes that someone is coming in or out?

But it is going to take awhile for me to get use to.

What sound (s) make you cringe?

Skateboards mumbling

A child rides his on the road outside my house every afternoon, all I can hear is that plank of wood slapping down every 30 seconds for an hour or more doh

Neither would I - But - Political correctness here in the UK is such that I have been told it's being taught at Music Colleges- Just imagine - a Degree / Masters or even a PhD In Rap -. Taught by a professor of Drum & Bass . rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

Like many deaf, or partially deaf people, I find certain noises physically painful.

It's not my fault, it's not anybody else's fault, it just is.

I've learned to stick my finger in my ear and take comfort in my own tinnitus. laugh
