Hear that noise outside? It's billions of cicadas . . . literally. Every 17 years, a special brood of the insect emerges from underground hidey-holes (which we're imagining as something along the lines of villainous headquarters) to pester the sh*t out of certain parts of the United States. Not-so-luckily for us, that year is 2016. They're already starting to buzz, and it's only going to get worse as the full force of cicadas come out of hiding in late April.
In honor of this awful rare occasion, here are a few obnoxious sounds we'd rather listen to than those ever-present cicada noises.
