Which sort of sound do you get sick of first, or if not first then worst?

Here are some great possibilities:

•  voices talking, talking, talking
•  a fly buzzing
•  music that isn’t to your taste
•  the steady beeping of some sort of electronic device
•  running water
•  a mouse gnawing inside the wall
•  a baby crying
•  kids screaming
•  a loud engine idling
•  a hovering helicopter
•  a neighbor’s television

Is there something that bugs you worse than any of those?

When there’s more than one at a time, do they cancel each other out at all or just multiply?

Will they actually drive you nuts?
