For people with a condition that some scientists call misophonia, mealtime can be torture. The sounds of other people eating — chewing, chomping, slurping, gurgling — can send them into an instantaneous, blood-boiling rage.
Misophonia, literally "hatred of sound", is a rarely diagnosed neuropsychiatric disorder in which negative emotions (anger, flight, hatred, disgust) are triggered by specific sounds.1 The sounds can be loud or soft.2 The term was coined by American neuroscientists Pawel Jastreboff and Margaret Jastreboff and is sometimes referred to as selective sound sensitivity syndrome.4

Get the Misophonia mug.Basically to hate kids and tweens as well, and, in my opinion, a good thing as well, as kids and tweens these days are basically all the same damned thing. Either immature, dirty, swearing bastards, or sadistic, cold-hearted morbid little shits. Especially the scum-of-the earth 12 year olds out there.
Most people will say that there are some good kids and tweens out there. I don't believe a word of it. It can even lead you to hate your own kids.
