* MostAnnoyingSound: InUniverse example. Leigh's landlady always wears sandals and they slap against the bottoms of her feet when she walks. He can hear her coming when she's on her way to collect the rent, and grows to loathe the sound of her slapping sandals because it usually means trouble coming.
