Overhead lights
Showers
That tingy sound a lot of hairdryers have
Really repetitive sounds
Babies wailing, I can handle crying but when they really get going I feel like I need to crawl out of my skin
Happened in a train. Toddler was really putting it on and everyone knew. I felt like going up to the toddler and saying something, but thankfully one of the parents snapped and started hitting their kid. I sat down and resumed my journey content
I’m not one to advocate for physical violence against children, usually. However, some children, at some point, need a demonstration of what happens when you push a person too far.
Edit: Also worth noting, it’s clear when one of those children never got that demonstration, never got that attitude correction, and grew up into an adult.
I grew up with someone at school who literally did not understand empathy, happily stole from his classmates, but knew how to apologise with fake sincerity when caught.
His parents didn’t seem like bad people, but people who had tried both positive and negative reinforcement and it just didn’t take.
I think he learned early on in life that he could do bad things to good people, and those good people would forgive him again and again. His friends learned to distance themselves, but his family? Oh gosh, what could they even do
Strangers touching me, UGH
