I HATE the sound of water boiling/bubbling. Hate hate hate hate HATE IT WITH A PASSION I CANNOT EXPLAIN. It makes me unreasonably irate and I can't quite explain why.

What seemingly-*random* noises bother you in a way you cannot explain? (The keyword here is random--I'm referring to sounds you don't think anyone else would be bothered by.)

I thought of some more. The sound of bananas being chewed. The sound of people who breathe through their mouths. People who sniffle. I'm starting to wonder if I actually do have Misophonia. I know I have mild synesthesia, so I figured my noise intolerances were just part of that.

There must be something deeeeep deep down & ancient yet biologically 'useful' about being annoyed by sniffing and chewing, since it bothers so, so, so many people. I wonder what it is.
Omg, it's all so interesting! I love wondering about and trying to analyze this kind of stuff.

Me too! Reading about synesthesia is especially fascinating, I remember reading a story about it in Seventeen (lol) waaaay back and just being like...OMG IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW.

For me it was the other way around. It wasn't until I was a teenager that I realized not EVERYONE associates colours and shapes with sounds. I always thought everyone did, until I read about synesthesia in a book! o.O;
