Any sudden, loud, noise like a siren.

OMG yes! Those things totally get me too! Tornado sirens I think I can handle the best...I'm not sure why, maybe because they're always far off in the distance for me. But I HATE the "Emergency Broadcast Test" so much! I seriously feel so uneasy for like an hour after. And the worst is when it's unfortunately a real alert. I've seen amber alerts (for kidnappings) and that just freaks the hell out of me. Ugh, I just wanna hide under my blankets from thinking about it.

Certain other sirens bother me too...specifically fire alarms that talk! I stayed with my cousin when I went to visit her at college once, and her apartment building had these fire alarms that could talk. Someone pulled it at 3am (we were still up, so at least I wasn't scared out of my sleep), and it started talking. It went like "WARNING: THERE IS AN EMERGENCY IN THE BUILDING". And my old apartment had fire alarms that talked, too. It yelled "Fire! Fire!" when the fire alarm went off (we obviously set it off a few times while cooking...lol). And once, I heard they neighbors' alarm say "Warning! Carbon Monoxide!" cause they had a leak.

UGHHH!! I'm definitely going to go hide under my covers now...
