The couple, from Melbourne, recently moved from a share house into their own apartment and thought they'd no longer have to worry about "keeping it down".Speaking with Mamamia, they admitted they'd been looking forward to be able to walk around the house starkers and make the most of "loud, joyous sex" whenever it took their fancy.And they were enjoying their new freedom until a neighbour posted them a little note after they'd been particularly rowdy during a late night romp.The note read: "Just a small request to please consider that we are all living in an apartment block when making considerable noise quite late at night and in the early hours of the morning."We have been woken up numerous times to very loud screaming and we are all working different hours, some with very early starts, so sleep is important."The couple were initially quite taken aback by the politeness of the note, having stated they have seen much more blunt versions that have gone viral online.

What about a person who implied they wanted something dirty on their wedding ring?Read on for five of our favourite engagement disasters.It's generally accepted that if you are going to propose to the person you love, you do it with jewellery of some kind.A ring's the most obvious, but also people can use earrings, lockets, necklaces and plenty of other things.But a lock of hair is certainly not what you'd expect.And that's exactly what one man decided to do, opting against the traditional way of getting down on one knee by choosing to chop off his own tresses as a token of his love.Reddit users were left bewildered by the unorthodox decision to propose to his fiancé with a lock of his own hair.In a picture posted online, you can see the handful of hair wrapped around the soon-to-bride's finger in the shape of a ring.The 'ring' is apparently just a temporary fixture until a new band is done – and what that new band is we can't be sure.The post read: "Happy Friday!

One of four sexual assault lawsuits filed against Marilyn Manson has been dismissed, after a judge ruled that the statute of limitations prevented the litigation from proceeding.The musician’s former assistant, Ashley Walters, sued Manson a year ago, accusing him of sexual harassment, abuse and battery during her time working for him between 2010 and 2011. Manson’s legal team had already successfully argued once before that Walters’ claims fell outside the statute of limitations, but she was given the opportunity to submit an amended complaint.In that amended filing, Walters said that, due to post-traumatic stress disorder, she had – until recently – suppressed her memories of what had happened to her while working for Manson.She had, said the lawsuit, been “unable to recall many of the physical and emotional abuses until the fall of 2020 when countless repressed memories flooded back to [her] after meeting numerous other victims of [Manson] and obtaining counselling from a mental health professional”.In California, where the case has been filed, the statute of limitations on sexual assault and harassment cases was three years, until 2020 when it was increased to ten years.However, according to Courthouse News, the judge overseeing the case, Michael Stern, said that the law change was not retroactive, meaning that Walters was still bound by the three year rule, requiring her to go legal within three years of the alleged abuse.
