Noise Tax

An informal but harsh penalty dealt out by neighbors of people who feel the need to show off the loud exhausts on their motorcycles and sports cars, their illegal fireworks or 12 million watt subwoofers. Also people who are mystified by their car alarms, can't properly care for pets and children, and talk outside windows late at night like they're at some club can expect an invoice

The tax itself is on a sliding scale based on the offender, the offense, and how often it happens: ranges from being anonymously being reported to local Code Enforcement or a Karen-post on Nextdoor and can escalate beyond minor frozen urine puddles to facing an arson charge for the recipient
Wayne was happy his favorite sports team won, he didn't know or care that the single mother next door was up past her shift tending to her son with colic so he was surprised to find a dirty diaper through his sunroof; the frustrated mother had succeeded in exacting a Noise Tax.

Cheap Noise

Purely means that the cheaper and more accessible the place, the noisier it is. Can be used to describe suburbs filled with babies, migrants, bogans and multiple fast-food outlets - not forgetting the vape stores. There is always some helicopter circling over a cheap noise suburb at 4am, most likely due to multiple feckholes doing dodgy activities down some dark alleyway.
I willingly pay excess $$$ for rent just because I refuse to be surrounded by the tragic implications of cheap noise.

Cheap noise is pauperism at its finest.

*salary cutting noises*

A comical term used when someone's paycheck gets cut (or otherwise gets paid less).

The term originates from a 2019 YouTube video featuring Miles Edgeworth dancing, referencing a reoccurring gag in the Ace Attorney series where he reduces the salary of the character Dick Gumshoe.
