Whatever happened to the dentist's drill being the scariest sound of all?

Whitney Houston, or one of her clones, "singing" over the intercom at Walgreens. It always leaves me asking the question, "Why is this woman screaming at me?"

Styrofoam. I can deal with a number of sounds that some people find extremely annoying, but squeaking styrofoam drives me batty.

[Bergholt Stuttley Johnson]

the sound of a mobile phone on a desk with the owner no where in sight (you would think the name would give them a hint ie MOBILE phone)

You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start
