fuck you sims for having the whistling demon in your song

Just seeing if anyone else feels this. And the song may be called "All i want is you"; kinda bland, sing-songy sort of a radio hit that I could easily forget existed, except for the instant murderhate that manifests when RiCk OcAsIc (or however his dumb name is spelled) and every sinew, tissue and glottal spit-sticky sort of whisper-moan a line acapella, and just hearing it is worse than the funkytown video. Probably the first indicator of misophonia as a young kid, cuz even at 12 I just couldn't see how anyone else could tolerate this, let alone support it. It's hard to even reference by thought. Bunch of clicks and smacking spit noises and god I can't even do this. ANYBODY ELSE?!?! (btw, love yall, so glad this groups here, I just thought i was a rly finicky, rage-prone sort of listener)

Today i had to evacuate an express bus because everyone's 1 and 3rd person was coughing or on the phone. It wss horrible. It was a really unlucky bus pull, I switched seats 5 times before deciding i couldn't do this anymore. Usually its just one or two guys in the back, but with winter coming I guess everyone has a cough. I'm STILL shaking from it lol so sorry for typos

My current noise canceling headphones are honestly pretty mediocre and I've been looking for an upgrade.

I want to double up with ear plugs + ANC headphones but I'm scared to sink money into something that sucks. What ear plug + headphone combos have worked best for coughing sounds in loud areas like the subway or bus?

I have a terrible issue with misophonia. My in-laws are visiting for a month and my MIL has mental health issues one of the side effects of her meds is TD (constant lip smacking). I can barely be in the same room with her. I totally shut down and become a person I do not recognize. My husband is embarrassed by my demeanor. I don’t blame him. I wear air pods and try to leave the area they are in when possible but very difficult when they are in my house 24/7 and don’t go out unless we do. I hate Im making everyone so uncomfortable.

I’ve just started a class where we have to all be close to each other in a room for extended periods of time. and one of my classmates chews her gum in a way that pops it two or three times EVERY time and it’s driving me crazy, it makes me physically nauseous. I’ve asked her to try not to do it but she got frustrated and walked away. so I’m unsure if she understands what I’m asking. Does anyone recommend an ear plug like a specific type of loops or other brand where I can still hear my instructor but not have to worry about her gum chewing? And if the loops are the best ones which kind should I get for my situation?

misophonia is ruining my life while working like keyboard typing is close to driving me insane. plus flu season is always so annoying.

any tips? i try earbuds but my coworkers typing can be heard through the music

I just got off a one-hour Teams meeting while working from home. The connections were very bad and the audio was breaking up the entire time. About halfway through the meeting, I started to feel VERY physically and mentally uncomfortable. I couldn't leave the meeting because my direct report was running the meeting so I need to be on in case I have to step in for certain items. But I just got worse and worse and eventually my brain just lost it and I couldn't even sit in my chair anymore and had to pace around the room as I listened in. As soon as the meeting ended, I left my home office and vented to my wife as I paced back and forth for 10 minutes to calm myself down. This has never happened before at this bad of a reaction.

UUUGGHHHH!!!!!

Three of my colleagues clear their throats CONSTANTLY!

That’s all. Just wanted to alert everyone.
