I hate people that have an awful voice quality

48% Normal

I feel intense anxiety and deep angry rage when I have to hear someone that has an incredibly hideous voice quality. If it's nasal sounding, or obnoxiously loud, or aesthetically painful to my ears, I actually feel rage. It's an intense anger. I have to get away from that sound pretty immediately.

Weird,no?

I think I have selective misophonia.

I'm such a jerk now, that I will tell them they sound like shit, and they should get a voice coach to fix it. It's not that common this happens, but really if someone's got a screwed up voice, either shut up, or fix it. This isn't someone with a unique voice, or something. It's like a human that sounds like a whoopee cushion got lodged in their vocal cords. What the hell!?!?!? I'm just not going to listen to that shit.

I can tolerate loud noises and other sort of common potentially annoying noises. But this one? Hell no.

I hate that damn chewing with their fat lips open, and you can smell it in the air, fucking disgusting.

I gotta disagree. One person's personal opinion shouldn't make another person not allowed to speak. I'm sorry you have to go through it though. I've heard about misophonia and it sounds like it sucks.

Can you give an example of someone whose voice you hate? I can't quite understand what you mean

It's called misophonia. I have that shit too ESPECIALLY with heavy nasal breathing or chewing.

  Got any ideal noise-cancelling earbuds I could wear?
  
  Of course, I've lost my patience with these people. I just straight up tell them to stop. I'm not nice about it. Sometimes this works. It's like open mouth breathers. Come on, breathe through your nose, please. They don't have to behave like savage ogres.

I hate Woody Allen's voice! I also really hate James Taylor's voice, but I don't mind Bob Dylan's voice at all.

That's not how the natural world works. Anybody with enough power, by however means one attains it, can change society by utilizing whatever means they have at their disposal. You only have to tolerate something if you can't outright stop it, and choose to let it be. Once upon a time, I would bite my tongue, be nice, and say nothing at all. That accomplished zilch. Being blunt with these ogres, despite that it may be perceived as being socially impolite, has been more effective. Very effective!!! See, I figured out a solution to this problem. It's as if these idiots are finally aware of something they do that greatly annoys others. I'll even kindly pay for their fist session with a voice coach.

I know what you mean, I have noise canceling earbuds, or I just listen to music when I come across someone with a particularly annoying voice

        Yeah, I freaking hate his whiny, nasally voice. However, I'm still fond of Bob Dylan.

You might have some sort of auditory processing disorder. It amplifies sounds and makes it to where everyday noises can be 10x louder then they are for other people.

  I can tolerate death metal so, that may not be the case, lol. I find being around airports relaxing. Car traffic doesn't bug me. I love hanging out at coffee shops. Usually there's a lot of people talking. It's not loud,but that's technically noise. Nope, doesn't bug me.
  
  Most sounds don't bother me at all.
  
  I will say that I get really angry if I hear somebody coughing. It's the person with the hacking chronic cough. Disgusting! There should be a way to dispose of such people. I know, seems harsh, but usually if you ask, a chronic coughing ogre is likely a smoker. Excuse me, but that's preventable. It's poor etiquette on their part to be a public disgrace with their filthy habits. They can keep that crap to themselves.
  
  Ah wait, it's true that I cannot stand when females greet each other with that hyper high pitched obnoxious loudness that can usually be heard a great distance away. That is irritating! I don't think my dislike of it qualifies as me having a disorder.

I don’t think that’s nice. There are diseases that do that to people’s voices.

  I didn't downvote this. It's kind of you to have such great empathy, despite that I don't remotely agree. People with irritating voices can simply shut up.
  
  Too bad duct tape doesn't fix those diseases, whatever they may be.
  
  I need a way to mute people. There must be a hack I shall discover! Off to my secret ACME Lab to work on it!
