Misophonia.

I wonder if my reaction to sniffing noises constitutes misophonia^*. Basically, the sound of someone sitting there sniffling (for instance when they have a cold but no tissues) brings out approximately the same level of reaction in me as the sound of someone retching continuously does in (as I understand it) more or less everyone. Headphones & loud music are quite useful when it's a colleague sitting at the next desk :(

^*Not to be confused with misophagia, which is eating tasty tasty fermented soya and rice paste.
