There is usually a switch on the toy to control the volume. You could adjust it from loud to louder. If it gets bad enough, I just take the batteries out.
Thought of another - mispronouncing or mis-using certain words
Mamm E-0 gram for mammogram
Prostrate for prostate
Seameant (or semen) for cement
Expodential instead of exponential
Using irregardless instead of regardless

Sound of eating/lip smacking/etc.
I think I'm just hypersensitive anyway but anything from people playing music through the walls, or over their phone speaker in public, biking and boating, whatever. If you can afford the phone, you can afford ear buds, and if I can hear it from another room, that means you can hear it if it's turned down by quite a bit.
Other one is general space and people that don't respect boundaries or are just nosy.
Also how people talk over each other in their conversation and just get louder and faster in dialogue. Both were talking....so who was listening? And did everyone else need to hear your conversation?

I am a noisy eater so I probably won't be invited over for dinner with some of you any time soon.
You would have hated this super fancy bassinet we had called a snoo. It would make shushing sounds and rotate.
when I was an intern, one of the supervisors used irregardless all of the time. He used it multiple times in a presentation in front of the team and drove us all nuts.
When someone constantly says "uhhhh, you know?, and seriously" every time they talk.
For textures there is something about those spongey foam eggshell packing sheets that makes my spine tingle for some reason. Just something about the feel of those things and I don't know why

An in-law answers a lot of questions with "I don't know (then gives the answer)"
The common put down phrases just make me tune people out. They are tired and mean spirited and there is enough hate in the world without listening to crap from people who just want to belittle others who disagree with them. Nut job, anything tard, snowflake, woke, Karen, Boomer, Nazi, whatever. Can’t discuss things civilly, act like a child and degrade the person you are talking to by putting them down or categorizing them in a way to diminish their humanity.
Why tell a person that you disagree with their opinion when you can call them an "idiot" or some other belittling term? It is not about civil discourse, it is about "winning" the conversation.
Styrofoam scraping. My career is in AV installation and it's exciting to take a new TV out of the box, but I cringe anytime I have to take the styrofoam packaging out. That sound it makes when two pieces scrape against each other is awful.

Dogs constantly barking or licking, squeaky windshield wipers, fake crying, people who say words like “and stuff” after almost every sentence. Actually had a coworker who would literally say “ok” after everything he said. It became a game with some of us to count how many times he said it in a conversation.
I would give almost anything to have this ability. I'm hyper-aware. It's exhausting.
