Hey Slang, what do you wish you had brought that you did not?

Great question.

The first thing that comes to mind is very good hearing protection (muffs) and or foam earplugs. With both, you can all but eliminate any noise.

Here is a list of things that make too much noise here.

Basura truck ( garbage collection )

Dogs

Cats fighting and in heat

Loud exhausts on cars and bikes and jeepnys

The neighbor's construction and pounding and cutting and noise, noise, noise all the effing time.

The other neighbor singing Videoke that often starts at about noon and ends in the early evening.

Helicopters

Commerical jets ( we're right in the approach path to Ninoy International )

The Puto guy that has a certain sound that he makes early in the moring to announce he has arrived and has Puto.

Firecrackers ( in season )

Horns of vehicles of all sorts. Some have the traditional "beep" sound and others have that electronic kind that plays some musical theme. I wish to eff they'd all just go away.

That is the list of most of the sounds that I find annoying here.
