I understand the fridge annoyance because those things can run at any time. I'd have expect the hood and the food processor to not be much of a problem because presumably they only run when meals are being prepared.

My washing machine got a lot more annoying when I realized its whosh whosh whosh is timed to perfectly accompany the old "Badger Badger Badger" Flash animation [1] [2].
