(especially the ones on our street at 7 in the morning!)

A single, mono drum ambience mic
People referring to original multitrack files as “stems”
People who are more concerned with the technology used to record music than the music itself
Fox "news"(?) Network
Live music performances that sound "just like the record"
That one really loud shouting guy sitting right next to one of the audience mics at a live concert recording
Too few audience mics on a live concert recording

People who show up early
When record companies pick the wrong first single
Award shows
When really tall guys stand in the front row in music clubs

—"If there was supposed to be more reverb it would have been added during the mix!!!"—BC
When movie and TV dialog tracks are overly de-essed

The stuff that's stuck in your teeth after eating pineapple or corn-on-the-cob
Bad ProTools editors (and there's lots of them around!)
Waiting for bags at the baggage carousel
Guns, and people who think they need them

(I't's also unrecyclable here)
Littering, and people who do it
Wind Chimes (as a percussion instrument)
Microsoft Windows
Carl's Jr. TV ads
Really loud cars and motorcycles
Actually, all unnecessary noises
Political campaigns & advertising

Trying to have a useful conversation on a cell phone
Bottom snare mic mixed too loud with the top snare mic on the same track (stick it on another track, please!)
Working past 10 PM
Republicans
Remote controls with touch-screens. How about a switch that makes it active?
People who complain about stuff that bugs them
