A lot of everyday objects will elicit a certain sound in your mind just by seeing an image.  I started my day with this sound…

I had a couple of teeth pulled today.  It wasn’t so bad.  But there’s nothing quite like the sound (or smell) of this thing grinding away in your mouth and all the other associated sounds that go right along with it.

Thanks to Dr. Amos (Facebook link) for humoring me when I wanted to take pictures afterward.

I suppose dentists’ interpretation of the catch phrase “It’s like pulling teeth” is a little different from mine.
