Is it normal that i despise the sound of an alarm clock so much?

So all throughout Jr. high and High school I used an alarm clock to wake myself up which is fairly normal as far as I can tell. Of course the sound it makes, that incessant buzzing I'm fairly sure most alarm clocks have, always bugged me when I woke up. But what I think is odd is that it slowly became unbearable. To the point where its easily the worst thing Ive ever heard in my life. Whenever I hear it it feels like someone it scratching my spine and it makes me cringe beyond belief. Sometimes the sound is used in commercials and thats usually the worst because its so unexpected. But I was just wondering: Is it normal to dislike this sound so much?

    That's the whole point of an alarm clock, annoying you enough to wake up!

    Replace the sound by your own sound in the PCB if you know how to program one.

    Yer it is. It's the sound that woke you up when you didn't want to get up everyday. But you would be screwed without it!

    Maybe the thing scratching your spine was a backscratcher you dumb shit. i really love the sound alarm clocks make!!!@!!!!@!@!P@#!#$!!!!!!!!!!!!! DOESNT EVERYONE?
    no. no one likes it. do you think youre being abnormal for not liking the sound that wakes you up. would you like for me to incessantly shout in your eardrums instead? i didnt think so bitch. so stop complaining and thinking youre unique and quirky for hating the sound that all people nationwide hate. p3@c3.

    I get an anxious and angry feeling when someone around me has their ringtone set to the tone I have as my alarm. It's funny how that is...

    I had an alarm on my cell phone for a few days when I had to wake up early, and even now I can't stand that ringtone.

    Try waking up with a radio alarm instead-music or chat radio is far better than an alarm sound.

    It probably because your body connects the evil of waking up to that noise and you hate the noise because it means you have to get up.
