What is a sound, word or noise that signifies things just aren’t going well or are about to break bad??
”FORE” in golf is a bad sound, “Ooops” at the shooting range will set ones heart racing. What are other sounds in life that you hear when things are suddenly not good??

From your doctor, during an examination: “Whoa!” or “uh oh.”
A doctor saying “Hmmmm” in that tone while looking at my x-rays.
@chyna I had an Orthopedic doctor swear when looking at my X-Rays!
“F#@K THEY MISSED IT!!””
That was an interesting moment fer sure! :O
@cruiser Not something one wants to hear, ever!
Someone watching a tattoo artist at work and then saying “You don’t spell it like that…”
“Don’t worry, I have seen smaller ones.”
I had a close call once – was out walking the dog in a high wind and a tree above me gave a long and loud Crrreeeeeeeeeeaaak… huge branch fell about 2 secs after I passed
Those that you do not want to hear ever.
Or in some cases “it’s not you it’s me”
“You might want to call your lawyer”
The sound of a tennis ball hitting the white tape on the net and falling on your side.
Someone afar off yelling DUCK!!
Sounds of howling cats coming from the kitchen of a chinese restaurant.
this should easily be question of the year. made me laugh out loud before even opening it
Footsteps in your home when you live alone isn’t usually anything good.
No it’s not @Symbeline. I’ve had to deal with a few of those. Usually the sound of strange footfalls is followed by the sound of a trigger cocking.
When someone says “if anything, it’s more than level”
@RealEyesRealizeRealLies Yeah well, all I have are some fake katanas and a replica of William Wallace’s sword.
I hide under the blankies.
my darling son cries hysterically if he hears this guy’s laugh
for me its usually oops or uhoh.
I suppose a really bad sound would be a fart from someone you’re stuck with in a Very small confined space with no chance of escape :D
Oh i also forgot… someone asking to get a box at work. always bad…........
Whilst driving the funeral hurst, the journey ends upon hearing a cough from the rear.
When the doc says”lean forward just a little more’’
This reminds me of the old joke about the lady who was walking around the office with a tampax behind her ear. Finally someone worked up the nerve to ask her why. A look of complete horror came over her face and her words (which I would never want to hear myself) were, “Holy fuck, where did I put my pencil??!!”
Hearing fabric rip when you bend down to pick up a paperclip.
The sound of a toilet bowl that runs just long enough to make me scream “Awehewah FUCK don’t overflo….nooooo”!
It isn’t the crash of something breaking, it’s the silence afterward that is scariest.
You know l think @Sunny2 has it with the “silence”. There’s not much worse of a sound than when all the birds stop chirping in the forest. That’s worse than the sound of the growling bear, or the tornado soon to follow.
I really hate the sound of a hammer falling on a tile floor. or…
the sound of dog bling jingling behind me when I close the gate
1000 lurve for “dog bling” @woodcutter. Upon that comment, you shall be quoted.
thank you, thank you very much
The sound of a plane engine sputtering.
The voice of your girlfriend sounding from the toilet: “It’s blue!!! ”
@rebbel so it’s not the Tidy Bowl guy?
Hearing the thrust of a pig shooting through a 24” gas pipeline, I guarantee you won’t hear much after that to annoy you.
The sounds of silence; when your toddler grandsons go into their room and suddenly you can’t hear them.
@YARNLADY I agree – silence in the presence of small children always means trouble, unless they’re actually asleep.
