Man 'fakes' two noise complaint letters, Reddit does not respond well

Reddit can be a cruel place, especially if you’re accused of being a liar.

A man has been called out on the social networking site for allegedly concocting two fake hand-written noise complaint letters from his neighbour.

The unidentified man, who goes by the username “GezStickman”, posted on a SubReddit on Wednesday two notes from their neighbours about the noise they made during sex.

The first was addressed to the “inconsiderate people that had sex last night and were incredibly loud” and asked them to “STOP.” So far, so standard for noise complaint letters.

It was the second letter, addressed to the “consistent note leaver” that Reddit users appeared to have a problem with, mainly due to the note’s ending.

“P.s. To the people who were having sex – Bravo,” the letter read. It added: “Smash on.”

Reddit users immediately poured scorn on “GezStickman”, claiming the handwriting in both notes was similar and questioning why the letter would be left in the lift, rather than under the user’s door.

One wrote: “Of all the things that didn't happen, this is the thing that didn't happen the most.”
