Well, there's a hoa who was so excited to go on a roller coaster. But as soon as the ride started, he screamed so loudly that the people in the front rows could hear him over the roar of the coaster. And he kept yelling 'I want to get off!' all the way through the ride.
Once there was a hoa who tried to dance like a ballerina. But every time he spun around, he ended up tripping over his own feet and falling into a bush. It was hilarious to watch.
Not being a member of the HOA can lead to some really funny situations. For example, my friend Lucy. She lived in a place with an HOA. But she chose not to be a member. When the HOA decided that all front yards should have only white flowers, Lucy planted a whole bunch of colorful wildflowers. The HOA sent her letters, but she just smiled and said she wasn't bound by their rules.
Sure. There was a story where the HOA (Homeowners Association) got really worked up over the color of a resident's front door. It was painted a bright purple which was not in the approved color palette. The homeowner argued it was a form of self - expression but the HOA insisted on it being changed. In the end, the homeowner painted a mural on the door that was within the color guidelines but still made a statement.
There's a story of a woman in an HOA who was constantly harassed by the HOA for having a small bench in her front yard. They said it violated some 'aesthetic' rule. She got revenge by filling her front yard with hundreds of little gnome statues. The HOA tried to fine her but she argued that they were collectibles and part of her gardening theme. It became a huge headache for the HOA and they eventually backed off as she had a lot of support from other neighbors who thought the gnomes were cute.
A homeowner was always being nitpicked by the HOA for having his car parked at a slightly odd angle in his driveway. So, he bought a really old, beat - up car and parked it right in front of his house for a week. The HOA couldn't do anything about it because it was still on his property and it wasn't violating any real traffic or safety rules. It just looked really ugly and was his way of getting back at them for being so picky.
A lady, not a member of the HOA, decided to keep chickens in her backyard. The HOA had a strict no - livestock policy. But she went ahead anyway. One day, her chickens got loose and ran all over the neighborhood. The HOA members were chasing after the chickens while she sat on her porch laughing, because she knew she didn't have to follow their rules.
One hoa horror story could be about a family who wanted to paint their front door a different color. The HOA said it violated the 'uniform aesthetic' rule and fined them constantly. They even threatened legal action if the door wasn't repainted to the original color.
One good HOA story could be about an HOA that organized a community garden. Residents came together, planted various vegetables and flowers. It not only beautified the neighborhood but also strengthened the community bond as people shared gardening tips and the harvest.
One hoa ending story could be about a community that was divided over hoa rules regarding landscaping. After much debate and negotiation, they finally reached a compromise where they allowed for a variety of landscaping styles as long as they maintained a certain level of tidiness. This led to a harmonious end where everyone was satisfied with the new rules.
