Cricket: Chirp chirp cihrp... Dog: Yip yip yip... Man: I'm at the airport... yeah, on I'm my Bluetooth blah, blah... The world's most annoying animals! The housefly. The woodpecker. The cricket. The garden mole. The poodle. That guy.
I remember when cell phones first came out(they used to be much larger in size), and some one would pull one out in a restaurant to let everyone see how important they were with their new toy. It was pretty funny.
doctortoon, you and I must be of the same generation! Do you remember party lines? And I still have my wall phone, or as they are called now, LAND LINES! Go figure!
The poodle? Shouldn’t it be the little yappy dog upstairs? And the door-to-door salesman is worse than the cricket. As are the mechanical answering machines for hospitals….

The mosquito is a very popular animal. Everybody claps when they see one.

Crickets are not annoying. Their chirping is soothing, and it’s good luck to have them in the house.

I hate crickets in the basement, the noise is ridiculous.

I once spent two days looking for that annoying cricket - ‘til I realized it was my smoke alarm chirping.
