HOA .... Please remind me
 
.... never to volunteer for our neighbourhood HOA Landscape Committee ever again ... it's draining my soul and I've lost the will to live.

How people can fight and quibble so much over the price of a trash receptacle (that's a bin to you and me) I will never know .... argghhhh!

You should have known from the past that HOAs are the spawn of satan. What was his name again with his flagpole in Fla?

I'm so sorry you are suffering. The only advise I could give you might be what Ray might say "taser them all":D;)

Oh yes that would be Angry White Pajamas. I had forgotten all about him and his flagpole saga.

lol... I can guess what you're going through. My parents live in a condo, and the board voted to replace the loos in all the units... most of the owners are older... the plumber eventually finished all the work and told the board he's not setting foot in that building again.

Totally agree with that! They're blood sucking leeches that do nothing. Not that I'm in the least bit bitter......:frown::rolleyes:

I pay over $500 per year for the privilege of being brow beaten by the saddos. However I do my best to erect phallic middle fingers at them. They set the lawyers on me, I set my lawyers on them .... what joy.

Toon, what is UP with the soap avatar? Thought you needed hair clippers, not soap!

The solution? Don't live in a neighborhood with a HOA! I don't miss it. :)

If I could pick up my house and move it (and no I can't) I would. It's hard to find new-build neighbourhoods without an HOA.

It's Texas. They mess with me at their peril! :thumbup:

I refuse to live in an HOA area. It's easier and less onerous living in a historic district.
