I started to write a joke remark about how all of those noises are irritating so maybe I have misophonia... Then I thought about how the wife regularly comments that I'm "funny about noise" so maybe there's something to that?

When I'm under the weather I really can't stand loud noise and get quite cranky. My mother in law - who is great, by the way - speaks so loudly that I sometimes have to leave the room, and that's often the first warning that I'm coming down with something :(
