THAT makes a sound!??!?

The story about the ice maker made me laugh. I never grew up with one, and we went on vacation and the condo we stayed at had an ice maker. It also made noise as I was just falling asleep. I freaked out :shock: Also felt very silly once I found out what it really was
 
I've had a ice maker scare me too. Hated that cause it seems to always happen when you least expect it.
 
I grew up being hearing as they never knew I had any type of loss tell I was 20 and got hearing aids after I was given medication that was ototoxic. Even when I got my hearing aids my mom was confused cause I still heard things for the first time like Birds I never heard or the letter T which I hear some now. Not much as my hearing got worse. But, they always thought I just had a speech impairment.
 
A few years ago I was walking in a field on a farm when I was startled by LOUD sounds that were indescribable. I looked wildly around me and had no idea what in the world it could be. Then I saw it--it was a mule braying about a hundred feet away next to the fence. Holy smokes, I never knew a mule could be THAT loud! :giggle:
 
I cannot think of a worse sound than fingernails across a blackboard!! Just the thought of it makes me go cross eyed. :dizzy:
 
You know bubble wrap? I love popping them cos I like feeling of it when you pop it and I never knew it made loud noises. At office there was bubble wrap, bubbles was 3 times size bigger than usual, I popped 2/3 of them and person in office with me jumped and asked me what was that? I said what? She said loud noise, I said I don't see anything happening. Then popped another one and person jumped said what is that??? and saw bubble wrap behind me and asked if I been popping them, I said yes. LOL.

I for one LOVE popping bubble wrap. It's tons of fun! That being said, it can be pretty loud and rather annoying in a setting such as the workplace. Unless you've got your own private office and have a door to close, I wouldn't recommend doing it there anymore. At home? Now that's a different story. Lol, I could do it all day. :giggle:
 
I remember one time my sons thought I was losing my mind because I could hear this low humming and kept asking them what it was. They had no clue what I was talking about until finally I realized it was the refrigerator. They were so used to humming refrigerators they actually couldn't hear it or did hear it but it just didnt register consciously.
 
I love the sound when I pop all those bubbles on the bubble wrap material. Pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, poppity, pop, pop, popppppp!
 
I didn't know spiders make a sound when they crawl around till one post that Liebling made about her sons telling her that they could hear spiders crawl around.

Ummm, most spiders DO NOT make a sound when they crawl. Either Libeling's sons have the best hearing in the history of ever, or she's got some mutant spiders in her place. My god, that's frightening. :shock:
 
Yes, the jumbo bubble wrap is just to irresistible! LOL. Makes me feel like a kid again.

That is what Leibling said. I can only take her word for it. I think they must have been big spiders or they put their ears close to the spiders.

I recall reading one horror story about where Jerome hears a spider crawling across the floor in The cermories novella in the Dark Gods collection of novellas written by T.E.D Klein. So I do think it's possible to hear one..

The character's name is Jeremy. I got his name wrong..
 
Only if it's a tarantula or something of comparable size. The usual house spider, the daddy long-legs type, don't make a sound.

When I first got Finlay he would stand at a wall in my living room and cock his head as if to listen to something! I am thinking why it Finlay doing that then I realize he has to be hearing a mouse in the wall! Finlay stopped listening to my wall after awhile ,I think the mouse packed up and left knowing there a wa dog in the house !
 
If I see a spider - it becomes a flat spider!

I didn't know my keys on my laptop made noise until now. My daughter has just told me to make my laptop be quiet. :giggle:

I knew the older keyboards made loud banging noises when you hit the keys but the new ones are supposed to be silent.
