I literally cannot watch minutephysics videos on YouTube because of the amount of mouth noise when he speaks. Even if I force myself to watch them I just absorb nothing because I just fixate on the mouth noise. It's baffling to me that so many people not only don't seem to mind, but don't even notice it in the first place.

yeahhh, if a youtuber does a lot of lip smacking I simply turn off the video and watch something else, it could be the only video on the topic of my hyperfixation but I just can't

i also mute every video and every film if i see food on the screen or if there's a dinner scene, subtitles whooo! (i also avoid cinemas because i can't do that there)
