Rough textures rubbing on each other. Like sandpaper on anything rough, cardboard rubbing on cardboard, etc. Anything rough on rough is a no for me.
 
When people pop their knuckles. x__x

ROFL oh man you'd hate hanging out with me then 🤣
I can just continuously and perpetually crack my knuckles (and various other joints) and do so frequently when I'm bored and antsy or stressed


Also for my answer!
Frosted glass touching frosted glass. I hate it to bits

I literally move three tables away from some coworkers who do that, and they ALWAYS smack and suck as loudly as possible 🤢

I don't even sit with my family at the dinner table because they ALL do it 🙄

Wet mouth sounds. Like people eating with their mouths open or cats grooming themselves. Drives me insane.

The sound of my own voice.

The sound of nylon or polyester being rubbed. Especially in a coat I happen to have the misfortune of wearing. It makes me feel like my skin's going to crawl off of my skeleton.
 
Crying and whining, but especially the bratty, throwing-a-tantrum variety. Doesn't matter if it's an animal or a child. Little else annoys me as much.

Another one is obnoxious dance remixes, the ones with those irritating squeaky sound effects and high-pitched voices. I don't typically go around and judge other people's taste in music. I like all sorts of genres myself. But holy shit. It boggles my mind why so many people in my area actively enjoy something that seems so irritating to listen to.
