@@dustypaladin9216 Where HOAs make sense is when there is some common ownership: like in a condo building sharing a roof or a neigbourhood sharing a pool or court-yard.
HOAs exist as a community agreement to keep their own property maintained to a degree where it doesn't decrease the property value for the neighborhood, which is fine in theory but unfortunately can be easily corrupted by unscrupulous board members. In a way, its actually Communism in the guise of Capitalism.

OP in the story could easily be sued and would lose badly for that stunt. Even if the customer didn't know that it was OP, he could still sue the store, which would probably result in OP being fired even if the store didn't know and/or didn't throw him under the sueing bus.

First story - OP missed a good deal there. When the AH's wife came to get his phone, OP should have told her, "I'm sorry ma'am, we can only release the phone to the owner. Your husband will have to come in to receive his phone, because we need him to sign a release form stating that he indeed did get his phone back from us. It is just to protect us from further claims.

First story.... should have downloaded a bunch of annoying apps, and signed him up for a bunch of "special deals"! Story three.... OP should stay total no contact with StepMonster. Write her off completely. Story four.... Bravo to the OP! Fight the evil ftom within.
First story doing your suggestion could possibly get you charged with fraud for signing them up for something. And OP could also get charged for damaging the phone and sued for the cost of unlocking and resesting the phone then further sued for the loss of any data that wasn't able to be retreaved like pics or videos. OP did also say they saw it was unlocked at the register so on camera with it and is on camera tampering with it, or taking it back out of camera with is extremely suspicious.
Stepmother should be happy she got a cake at all. OP should've sent her nothing... or Minny's pie. Personally, I would've erased both the stepmother and the father from my life a long time ago.
Story 3. Could be the officer was sleeping with her and wanted O.P gone so they didn't have to sneak around anymore. If O.P's dad stayed with her after she put O.P out he's as worthless as her.
3RD STORY: Evil stepmom is lucky she even got a birthday cake from OP at all, especially after she had the audacity to compare OP's cake baking skills to that of Betty Crocker. Heck, if I was OP, I wouldn't even waste my time into making a birthday cake for her. Instead, I would go to the nearest grocery store, buy one of those small circular red velvet cakes, take it to my job and write "SCREW YOU STEPMOM" on the top in black frosting, and not even bother to show up at the party.
Story 3 Cake Story - Aside from the fact that she even started talking to them again at all, I absolutely LOVE OP for how she handled StepMom and her issues. Definitely deserved to be embarrassed like that.
That airport security line...right up until the end I was hoping they'd get pulled for suspicious/aggressive behavior. But then to learn they could have just skipped the whole line...that's even better. I hope they got picked for extra screening.
About the airport Karen: I think it's ridiculous that airports and airlines don't ensure that security is always fast so that you can never miss your flight, if you have managed to check in in time! You pay for a service and it's ridiculous that they can't keep up their bargain of the deal. The Karen didn't get that EVERYONE had to deal with this bad service and thought she was more important than others. But the real problem is not the Karen, but the horrible service by the airport imo...😊
First story. I know the old guy was a pain in the arse, but, I deal with old people all day and they are a paranoid bunch that don't think people care about them. I usually let them be after they find out their mistake because they are really embarrassed. They forget A LOT. Compassion is my motto.
Story 2 - Only a security issue ONCE past the TSA security line, they will do one of two things, simply ignore and go slower, take her off for secondary checking.
Right but nah going tho someone else's phone is OK and messing with it so smart right 🙄 like op was a major jerk for that u don't go tho and change someone's phone u can get in so much trouble for that and plus u don't know what the old guy is going tho or if he has something wrong like op is definitely the jer k
I don't get op, they treated her like trash, kicked her out and left her homeless, and she comes back for more, I hope she understand that is ok to cut toxic people out of your life.
If my time and effort was ever insulted on any food I've made, and then the offending party asks me to make them something else in the future, I would flat out tell them "F-- No!" and when they asked why, I would point out their B.S. and say that they can pay an exhorbinant amount if they want a cake because I draw the line at insulting my food!
I have a long tradition to make a cake for my nieces and nephews ever since they was little. Nothing special, just a simple box cake with some frosting of whatever flavor they wanted. Only thing is that I always buy the Betty Crocker or Duncan Hines depending on what kind of cake that my niece/nephew wants on their birthday. It's not much but they always love it that their UnCool made them a cake specially for them.
Good for you... There are ways to make even box mix come out of the oven moist and taste great, it just takes a little know how and care in the preparation and baking... My grandma also always lightly frosted the cakes the moment they came out of the oven so the frosting would sink into the cake and then after they cooled, she lightly frosted them again the traditional way... If you do this, do NOT slather on a thick layer of frosting after it's cooled or the cake will be SUPER-sweet...as in sweet enough to gag a 5 year old sugar junky...
@@HappilyHomicidalHooligan my cakes always come out moist. Mostly due to I get the "moist" cake mix. Also I've been making these cakes for some many years o know how to make them by memory sometimes lol. The only things that has ever happened while making their cakes is sometimes a piece of the cake might break off when I moving it one of the layers to stack them but it's never bad and I usually fix it to where it stays. I do tell my nieces that the cake did break but they don't care because they know it's delicious.
Story 3: I'm just surprised that she stayed in contact with a horrible female like that. She would be the last person in the world I'd want to have anything to do with. Poor dad but I would prefer my own sanity to dealing with her.
I'm amazed that the Security at that airport were not at the unemployment line the next day for letting that Karen push through the line like that. Plus it'd be dumb for the Karen because that's a way to have ARMED SECURITY point weapons at you. I saw it happen once, some idiot tried what she did, security was there in an instant, stun-guns out with two of them while others were ready to draw their pistols if need be. She was on the floor QUICK, and restrained. Either way, while I know security folks can be stretched thin, from the size of this airport it sounds like a lack of security shouldn't have been a thing. Somebody needed to be fired.
Lost phone story: Yeah, I wouldn't bother with a passcode lock. Just putting the system into Chinese would confuse him more than enough. Airport story: So did Karen make or miss her flight? People want to know. Betty Crocker cake story: GREAT JOB, OP!!!
Lost phone how about don't mess with someone else's phone u can get in trouble for that and u don't know if something is wrong or going on with the old guy so op is a total jerk
At least she didn’t get Betty Crocker she clearly didn’t like BC, she clearly listen and got her Duncan Hines. Every HOA story I hear further cements for me that I will never live where there is an HOA. So much so when I was buying my house I told my agent my #1 priority is No HOA, my second is I require a securely fenced yard for my doggos, everything after that is gravy. I live in the country, with no HOA and my dogs have 4x the yard they had in the city. I am also working on getting a fence for my front yard so my dogs can have even more yard to run.
Story 1 reminds me of something that happened at work. I had this elderly man ask me for help finding something. While I'm pulling the item from the shelf he tells me that he's "glad he found a nice, white guy," because he didn't trust that Mexican guy. I hand him the item but don't let it go until after I say, with a smile, "sir, I'm Mexican, too." I have fair skin, courtesy of my grandmother's side of the gene pool. The look of horror on his face was priceless.
There's some knomiras (karens) who've recently moved into our area who are trying to start a "neighborhood association" and they're now harassing people, calling the cops on people, going up to people's fences and screaming at them, etc, because except for the two, no one's willing to sign their stupid petition for such an association. She even came to our house screaming she was going to sue us for mental anguish if we didn't sign and for "harassment" because we refused to take down the fence in our yard. We told her to bugger off. The fence is actually a really nice, black, chain-link fence that blends in well with the area. There are lovely flowering lilacs along the fence and, in the evening, you can't see it at all. And it's fairly new so it looks really nice, too. To make sure I chose a color that neighbors would like, this was before the biddies moved into the neighborhood, I asked my nearest neighbors to help me pick a type and color that we all could agree on that they wouldn't mind seeing in the area. The reason for the fence was because I got a dog and my husband hates the idea of chaining a dog up when letting them out, so we fenced the yard instead so she could have lots of run room. Once the neighbors and, and me and my husband, agreed on what the fence around my back yard would look like, we had it put up. Again, this was before the old biddies. Neighbors were not offended by it, because they helped pick it out, it looks nice, and my dog is safely kept in the yard. But these old hags want a bylaw where there are "no fences." Yeesh.
I don't care if an HOA is fair, I will not join an asaociation that dictates the rules about properties they don't pay. My property, my rules. You want me to change somethimg about it, you pay half my bills for it.
Story 1 - In my personal experience in working fast food, retail, security and more, it's always TP dispenser that people leave their phone on when it goes missing, my own phone included. In fact, that experience is why I've never lost my phone outside my house because I either remember to check the TP (or in one case towel) dispenser as I'm leaving or a few steps after checking my pickets. Working security in particular, I've saved so many phones doing this, and in one case, I even recognized the phone and gave it back to said employee. Always pay it forward, and save your fellow co-workers and such from this embarrassment... unless you're enacting revenge. In that case, have at it, but only if you're sure that it's your target's phone.
Story 1: Huh. I’d’ve just mass-texted his entire contact list like, “Hey, can you tell this phone’s owner I found his phone? He left it in the bathroom.” Public humiliation for public humiliation. Fair’s fair.
If it's an old man the find phone feature probably isn't an option because he wouldnt know how to use it... but old people have their ringer on as loud as physically possible so calling it probably would've worked... or scared the crap out of someone in the bathroom.
8:27 "Yeah, you are a Joke. I am not taking you seriously. You can have this scene unfold on top you" is something at that moment by which I would feel obligated to say.
That third Story, the father of the OP is a spineless weak POS! She literally said that her father was the owner of the house, yet she can be thrown out by the wife why? If a police officer said that that's bull! Just because you've got some platypus hippopotamus sitting on your couch giving out orders doesn't mean those orders have to be followed if hers is not the name on the freaking title deed. So I don't think it was the cop that said that I think it was the father said that the police told him that his daughter had to leave because he didn't have the balls nor the spine to stand up for his own daughter in the face of literally a hippopotamus! And that disgust me because then, ( and in the next paragraph or two), you see the mental breakdown and all the dreams of OPs youth, Psychology, Vet, Teacher, Counselor, etc.,HELL EVEN GOING TO A BETTER SCHOOL, INCLUDING ONES SHE HAD SCHOLARSHIPS TO..... HER DREAMS WERE LITERALLY RIPPED FROM HER AND THEN TRAMPLED UPON GLEEFULLY BY A STEP-MONSTER..(PERSONALLY, I THINK THE STEP-BITCH IS A SITH LORD!!😂😂). BUT SERIOUSLY, THOSE SCUMBAGS LET THOSE DREAMS AND ASPIRATIONS ROT AWAY..BECAUSE GOD FORBID SHE BECOMES SOMETHING SUPERIOR TO THE DISGUSTING VILE THING HER STEP-NAZI HAS ALWAYS BEEN... AS FOR "HER FATHER" "THAT MAN" (WHICH IS HOW SHE SHOULD ADRESS HER SPERM DONOR), ISN'T EVEN WORTH THE TIME, THE TITLE, ANY AFTER THOUGHTS , ETC. HELL...THAT USELESS Sack of DNA and shit isn't even worth the O² (oxygen) that is wasted by his mere existence! Let alone that mouth breathing TROGLODYTE HE CALLS A "WIFE"!!! BUT I DIGRESS...all the potential that could have been just get flushed down the effing toilet.. I MEAN YES, the OP MADE something of herself but what did she lose? WHAT did she lose of HER soul ? HER abilities? HER own mental health AND physical health? HOW MUCH did she lose? THOSE THINGS ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO QUANTIFY..BUT I GUARANTEE YOU, SHE LOST PARTS OF HER THAT SHE CAN NEVER GET BACK...AND SHE ALSO LOST TIME..WHICH IS THE MOST TRAGIC THING OF ALL... TIME IS IRREPLACEABLE..AND THOSE BASTARDS...THAT FILTHY HAG OF A WOMAN BEING THE FIRST AND FOREMOST OF OP's ANTAGONISTS , LITERALLY ROBBED HER. THEY STOLE SOMETHING PRICELESS FROM AN INNOCENT....IF LIFE WAS TRULY FAIR, THEY WOULD BE CHARGED WITH BREAKING AND ENTERING, STRONG ARM ROBBERY, GRAND THEFT, TRESPASSING, VANDALISM, AND THEN CHARGED WITH PRE-MEDITATED MURDER IN THE FIRST. They broke into her mind into her psyche they stole time from her they colluded against her they stole her dreams her aspirations they trespassed all over her privacy and borders they gave her no chance and when she tried to stand up to them they strong-armed her and last but not least they killed her dreams and her Ambitions they murdered her literally they did crimes they should pay for them but they won't but this disgusts me. I'm glad that the OP found some semblance of a life and was able to hold it all together because the greatest revenge is living well and I hope she never has contact with them ever again I hope she sees that she does not need to speak to that bag of crap who doesn't deserve to be called the father because he is no father he's a sperm donor and a bad one at that.
She can throw out OP because she is the Wife of the Owner and it's her Residence. OP is effectively a Tenant and the Bitch served OP with a Legal Eviction Notice... Only OP's father, the actual Owner of Record could rescind the Eviction and he'd have to be in the city and go through the Courts to do it... I think...
If I lived where a HOA existed, I'd move. My land, my home, my property, my rules. The thought that a HOA could force the sale of a home for failing to pay spurious fines (such as grass not being green enough!), really sickens me!
I honestly think wedding cake tastes exactly like overcooked betty Crocker cake mix. But maybe it was just my feelings about my step mom psychologically tainting the memory.
Story 2 - I used to fly every week for work prepandemic. Karens were the bane of the business travelers' existence at the airport! I can't tell you how many times I've had bins nearly snatched out of my hands as I was putting my stuff in it, because "I need it more than you, you can go over yonder to get another". Or how abusive they were to the employees in general, and especially when their travel is disrupted. I have so many stories..... My favorite story happened while we were stuck waiting for a flat tire to be replaced on our plane. They had a hard time finding the correct tire, as it wasn't the airline's home airport. They had us move gates halfway down the terminal because they thought they had a replacement plane, then sent us back when they found out they didn't. I watched as so many casual travelers went up to the gate agents and yelled at them for the delay. I felt so bad for them. As the delay reached 3 hours, I went to the desk and asked if there was an ETD yet. When they said no, said "that's too bad, I hope they find a tire soon", then I asked if I could get a meal voucher. They printed one for me, and I kindly said thank you. Just as I was about to tell the group I was chatting with about the voucher, the gate agent announced that they were authorizing meal vouchers for everyone and how to scan their tickets to print on out at the kiosks. The amount they gave me was twice the amount everyone else got. Nice matters!
My HOA once sent a groundskeeping crew into the neighborhood to handle "too many leaves in the yard" violations. In February. With 2-1/2 inches of snow on the ground. I figured out what was happening when some dude with a LOUD gas-powered blower was on my front porch "because it's the only place with any leaves showing at all." I called the management company and, after a few moments of having to convince the woman I spoke with that this wasn't a joke, was asked to please hold... a few minutes later, the leaf blowers all stopped, and a couple of minutes after that the woman got back on the line with me and apologized for what she said was one of the stupidest things her employer had ever done. :-)
I'm grateful that HOA don't exist in my country... I still have no idea what's the good purpose to that for existing. to not let you live happy in your house? to not let you make modifications to your house? to not work on your home? to feed entitled people who does nothing but complain about others?
The Karen in the 2nd story is not 100% wrong though, those long security lines that the TSA creates are a security hazard in and of themselves. If the TSA truly cared about safety, they would give everyone PreCheck for free.
Canned frosting??? As a retired baker myself that's the worst thing she could have done. I prided myself on the home made icing I did, real butter, almond flavor, and so on. I might use a cake mix if I was in a hurry, but never canned frosting.
Lol the first thing I do when I'm missing my phone is check the bathroom. Idk why but I always forget it in public bathrooms. Even left it lying long times sometimes, but it has never been stolen or taken😅
Re: Story 3 OP really should have replied to the callous comment with "I don't know, how could you have been so callous to evict me when I was 18, and then proceed to rub it in my face?"
TSA Precheck costs roughly $25 a year. It bypasses so much stress from standing in the long lines that seem to move so slowly. It's well worth the price.
HOA story: Fines are due within 2 weeks, but appeals must be brought to the board meeting that only occurs once a year. So if you get fined the day after the meeting (or is 2 weeks and a day ahead of the next one), you don't have the ability to appeal. If the company planned out their fine deliveries right and avoided that 2 week window, they could ensure none of them are appealable. Either way, I'm claiming illegal, the whole taxation-without-representation spiel the American Revolution was all about. The fact that the weeds that OP was killing weren't green enough (and the fact that they were there at all) is just salt in the wound.
My husband is the president of our HOA and rules about flower colors, and trash can distances do not exist. He is mostly dealing with inflation and maintenance and repair issues. You do have to get your house color approved if you want to repaint it, and yes, it has to be in somewhat neutral colors. But that rule is set by the bigger community HOA, of which we are just a part.
I get Betty Crocker cakes for my birthdays now. That Karen stepmom got more than she deserves. My GOD she got Duncan Hines! She deserves one of my Ex-Wife's homemade cakes, they are a close call to Elly May Clampett's Pound Cakes from The Beverly Hillbillies.

3RD STORY: Evil stepmom is lucky she even got a birthday cake from OP at all, especially after she had the audacity to compare OP's cake baking skills to that of Betty Crocker. Heck, if I was OP, I wouldn't even waste my time into making a birthday cake for her. Instead, I would go to the nearest grocery store, buy one of those small circular red velvet cakes, take it to my job and write "SCREW YOU STEPMOM" on the top in black frosting, and not even bother to show up at the party.
Tombstone cake. Some playing with the canned icing should get a nice gray to slather on
Who, in their right mind, buys a house in a HOA?!?!
👏💯👏
Thank You!! Exactly what I said!
My realtor is steaming cause we won’t take a house in an hoa area 😂😂 at this point ima look on my own I feel like the realtors are in bed with hoa’s 😂
@@simmonsmichael317 great point!
@@simmonsmichael317 Prolly gets a kickback...
Many people have said that areas are becoming harder to find without them
I would have made the step mom a cemetery cake with a gravestone with her name lol
I love the HOA story way to get rid of trash
🤦🤦🤬🤦🤦
As I always say...
WHY IN HELL would you CHOOSE & PAY to live in an HOA?!?
I just don't get it!!
Story 3 Cake Story - Aside from the fact that she even started talking to them again at all, I absolutely LOVE OP for how she handled StepMom and her issues. Definitely deserved to be embarrassed like that.
That airport security line...right up until the end I was hoping they'd get pulled for suspicious/aggressive behavior. But then to learn they could have just skipped the whole line...that's even better. I hope they got picked for extra screening.
Story 3 makes me violently angry
All these crazy people needed to have their heads checked!
About the airport Karen: I think it's ridiculous that airports and airlines don't ensure that security is always fast so that you can never miss your flight, if you have managed to check in in time!
You pay for a service and it's ridiculous that they can't keep up their bargain of the deal.
The Karen didn't get that EVERYONE had to deal with this bad service and thought she was more important than others.
But the real problem is not the Karen, but the horrible service by the airport imo...😊
First story. I know the old guy was a pain in the arse, but, I deal with old people all day and they are a paranoid bunch that don't think people care about them. I usually let them be after they find out their mistake because they are really embarrassed. They forget A LOT. Compassion is my motto.
Right thank u for being one of the few smart nice people here lol
But he blamed innocent people for being thieves
Story 2 - Only a security issue ONCE past the TSA security line, they will do one of two things, simply ignore and go slower, take her off for secondary checking.
Story #1:
Hello sir, we found your phone. Would you like to pick it up?
Great! Who took it?
Nobody sir, we found it in a urinal.
Right like op is a major jerk for going tho and messing with the guys phone
Nope.
For the first story, in the UK we would have just dialed the number to see if we could hear it ring. Wouldn't that have worked in this case?
Unless he had it on silent mode. Presuming someone thought to listen in the restroom.
@@richardreid6377if he doesn’t even have a lock on his phone, I doubt he’d figure out how to silence it
Yes, yes it would have. But OP seems fairly low IQ, and not remotely in control of his emotions, so I'm not surprised he didn't think of it.
Right but nah going tho someone else's phone is OK and messing with it so smart right 🙄 like op was a major jerk for that u don't go tho and change someone's phone u can get in so much trouble for that and plus u don't know what the old guy is going tho or if he has something wrong like op is definitely the jer k
@@aussiefamily4886 Exactly.
I don't get op, they treated her like trash, kicked her out and left her homeless, and she comes back for more, I hope she understand that is ok to cut toxic people out of your life.
If my time and effort was ever insulted on any food I've made, and then the offending party asks me to make them something else in the future, I would flat out tell them "F-- No!" and when they asked why, I would point out their B.S. and say that they can pay an exhorbinant amount if they want a cake because I draw the line at insulting my food!
I have a long tradition to make a cake for my nieces and nephews ever since they was little. Nothing special, just a simple box cake with some frosting of whatever flavor they wanted. Only thing is that I always buy the Betty Crocker or Duncan Hines depending on what kind of cake that my niece/nephew wants on their birthday. It's not much but they always love it that their UnCool made them a cake specially for them.
Good for you...
There are ways to make even box mix come out of the oven moist and taste great, it just takes a little know how and care in the preparation and baking...
My grandma also always lightly frosted the cakes the moment they came out of the oven so the frosting would sink into the cake and then after they cooled, she lightly frosted them again the traditional way...
If you do this, do NOT slather on a thick layer of frosting after it's cooled or the cake will be SUPER-sweet...as in sweet enough to gag a 5 year old sugar junky...
@@HappilyHomicidalHooligan my cakes always come out moist. Mostly due to I get the "moist" cake mix. Also I've been making these cakes for some many years o know how to make them by memory sometimes lol. The only things that has ever happened while making their cakes is sometimes a piece of the cake might break off when I moving it one of the layers to stack them but it's never bad and I usually fix it to where it stays. I do tell my nieces that the cake did break but they don't care because they know it's delicious.
I think it was a win when Karen would not listen to what the flight crew were telling her so she missed out. Follow instructions and you'll be okay
Story 3: I'm just surprised that she stayed in contact with a horrible female like that. She would be the last person in the world I'd want to have anything to do with. Poor dad but I would prefer my own sanity to dealing with her.
Step mom got les than she deserves, i think op is brilliant, LMAO
I'm amazed that the Security at that airport were not at the unemployment line the next day for letting that Karen push through the line like that. Plus it'd be dumb for the Karen because that's a way to have ARMED SECURITY point weapons at you. I saw it happen once, some idiot tried what she did, security was there in an instant, stun-guns out with two of them while others were ready to draw their pistols if need be. She was on the floor QUICK, and restrained. Either way, while I know security folks can be stretched thin, from the size of this airport it sounds like a lack of security shouldn't have been a thing. Somebody needed to be fired.
I would have put laxatives in the cake or in the frosting
That will land you in jail.
You never ever ask the person that you insulted for a favor.
OP missed a trick with the 50th birthday cake. A finishing touch would have been to write “enjoy your 50th Birthday you evil cow” in black icing.
Glad my neighborhood doesn’t have an HOA
Lost phone story: Yeah, I wouldn't bother with a passcode lock. Just putting the system into Chinese would confuse him more than enough.
Airport story: So did Karen make or miss her flight? People want to know.
Betty Crocker cake story: GREAT JOB, OP!!!
Lost phone how about don't mess with someone else's phone u can get in trouble for that and u don't know if something is wrong or going on with the old guy so op is a total jerk
The cake story I would have gone farther. Over beaten, over baked, and make sure the middle falls.
At least she didn’t get Betty Crocker she clearly didn’t like BC, she clearly listen and got her Duncan Hines.
Every HOA story I hear further cements for me that I will never live where there is an HOA. So much so when I was buying my house I told my agent my #1 priority is No HOA, my second is I require a securely fenced yard for my doggos, everything after that is gravy. I live in the country, with no HOA and my dogs have 4x the yard they had in the city. I am also working on getting a fence for my front yard so my dogs can have even more yard to run.
Petty??? That cake was PRO, all the way! You go, Girl!!
Bro that last story aint petty revenge, it's downright PRO Revenge! I love it!
I will never understand the whole concept of a HOA. Paying money to be told how you choose to use your home is utterly ridiculous.
Story 1 reminds me of something that happened at work. I had this elderly man ask me for help finding something. While I'm pulling the item from the shelf he tells me that he's "glad he found a nice, white guy," because he didn't trust that Mexican guy.
I hand him the item but don't let it go until after I say, with a smile, "sir, I'm Mexican, too." I have fair skin, courtesy of my grandmother's side of the gene pool. The look of horror on his face was priceless.
Last story- your Dad is a brilliant class act! Way to call out a racist in disarming manner.
There's some knomiras (karens) who've recently moved into our area who are trying to start a "neighborhood association" and they're now harassing people, calling the cops on people, going up to people's fences and screaming at them, etc, because except for the two, no one's willing to sign their stupid petition for such an association. She even came to our house screaming she was going to sue us for mental anguish if we didn't sign and for "harassment" because we refused to take down the fence in our yard. We told her to bugger off.
The fence is actually a really nice, black, chain-link fence that blends in well with the area. There are lovely flowering lilacs along the fence and, in the evening, you can't see it at all. And it's fairly new so it looks really nice, too. To make sure I chose a color that neighbors would like, this was before the biddies moved into the neighborhood, I asked my nearest neighbors to help me pick a type and color that we all could agree on that they wouldn't mind seeing in the area. The reason for the fence was because I got a dog and my husband hates the idea of chaining a dog up when letting them out, so we fenced the yard instead so she could have lots of run room.
Once the neighbors and, and me and my husband, agreed on what the fence around my back yard would look like, we had it put up. Again, this was before the old biddies. Neighbors were not offended by it, because they helped pick it out, it looks nice, and my dog is safely kept in the yard.
But these old hags want a bylaw where there are "no fences." Yeesh.
Haven't they heard that "good fences make good neighbors"? Eh, never mind, they don't know what good neighbors are.
They want no fences so they can go snooping in yards unencumbered.
15:03 the orignal poster is a pushover I wouldn't gave the hoa 100$
An HOA is like a ghetto in world war 2. I have NO idea why anyone would live like that voluntary.
Story 3: Man, even years later she is still insulting OP (or at least trying to). Does she have anything better to do, like a hobby?
All things considered that probably is her hobby.
State legislatures need to OUTLAW "HOAs."
I don't care if an HOA is fair, I will not join an asaociation that dictates the rules about properties they don't pay. My property, my rules. You want me to change somethimg about it, you pay half my bills for it.
Story three: I would have told her she received the cake she deserved.
Story 1 - In my personal experience in working fast food, retail, security and more, it's always TP dispenser that people leave their phone on when it goes missing, my own phone included. In fact, that experience is why I've never lost my phone outside my house because I either remember to check the TP (or in one case towel) dispenser as I'm leaving or a few steps after checking my pickets. Working security in particular, I've saved so many phones doing this, and in one case, I even recognized the phone and gave it back to said employee.
Always pay it forward, and save your fellow co-workers and such from this embarrassment... unless you're enacting revenge. In that case, have at it, but only if you're sure that it's your target's phone.
Story 1: Huh. I’d’ve just mass-texted his entire contact list like, “Hey, can you tell this phone’s owner I found his phone? He left it in the bathroom.”
Public humiliation for public humiliation. Fair’s fair.
The woman in the HOA story is LEGENDARY!
First story:
Did anyone think of calling the lost phone and listening for the ring tone?
Or maybe using a find a phone feature?
Right lolbut op can't be smart cause no one smart would go tho and mess with someone else's phone
If it's an old man the find phone feature probably isn't an option because he wouldnt know how to use it... but old people have their ringer on as loud as physically possible so calling it probably would've worked... or scared the crap out of someone in the bathroom.
8:27 "Yeah, you are a Joke. I am not taking you seriously. You can have this scene unfold on top you" is something at that moment by which I would feel obligated to say.
one could honestly say she asked for that cake WELL DONE OP Now cut contact with her, pretend dad is a widower again
That third Story, the father of the OP is a spineless weak POS!
She literally said that her father was the owner of the house, yet she can be thrown out by the wife why? If a police officer said that that's bull! Just because you've got some platypus hippopotamus sitting on your couch giving out orders doesn't mean those orders have to be followed if hers is not the name on the freaking title deed.
So I don't think it was the cop that said that I think it was the father said that the police told him that his daughter had to leave because he didn't have the balls nor the spine to stand up for his own daughter in the face of literally a hippopotamus! And that disgust me because then,
( and in the next paragraph or two), you see the mental breakdown and all the dreams of OPs youth, Psychology, Vet, Teacher, Counselor, etc.,HELL EVEN GOING TO A BETTER SCHOOL, INCLUDING ONES SHE HAD SCHOLARSHIPS TO.....
HER DREAMS WERE LITERALLY RIPPED FROM HER AND THEN TRAMPLED UPON GLEEFULLY BY A STEP-MONSTER..(PERSONALLY, I THINK THE STEP-BITCH IS A SITH LORD!!😂😂).
BUT SERIOUSLY, THOSE SCUMBAGS LET THOSE DREAMS AND ASPIRATIONS ROT AWAY..BECAUSE GOD FORBID SHE BECOMES SOMETHING SUPERIOR TO THE DISGUSTING VILE THING HER STEP-NAZI HAS ALWAYS BEEN...
AS FOR "HER FATHER"
"THAT MAN" (WHICH IS HOW SHE SHOULD ADRESS HER SPERM DONOR), ISN'T EVEN WORTH THE TIME, THE TITLE, ANY AFTER THOUGHTS , ETC.
HELL...THAT USELESS Sack of DNA and shit isn't even worth the O² (oxygen) that is wasted by his mere existence! Let alone that mouth breathing TROGLODYTE HE CALLS A "WIFE"!!!
BUT I DIGRESS...all the potential that could have been just get flushed down the effing toilet..
I MEAN YES, the OP MADE something of herself but what did she lose? WHAT did she lose of HER soul ? HER abilities? HER own mental health AND physical health? HOW MUCH did she lose?
THOSE THINGS ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO QUANTIFY..BUT I GUARANTEE YOU, SHE LOST PARTS OF HER THAT SHE CAN NEVER GET BACK...AND SHE ALSO LOST TIME..WHICH IS THE MOST TRAGIC THING OF ALL...
TIME IS IRREPLACEABLE..AND THOSE BASTARDS...THAT FILTHY HAG OF A WOMAN BEING THE FIRST AND FOREMOST OF OP's ANTAGONISTS , LITERALLY ROBBED HER. THEY STOLE SOMETHING PRICELESS FROM AN INNOCENT....IF LIFE WAS TRULY FAIR, THEY WOULD BE CHARGED WITH BREAKING AND ENTERING, STRONG ARM ROBBERY, GRAND THEFT,
TRESPASSING, VANDALISM, AND THEN CHARGED WITH PRE-MEDITATED MURDER IN THE FIRST.
They broke into her mind into her psyche they stole time from her they colluded against her they stole her dreams her aspirations they trespassed all over her privacy and borders they gave her no chance and when she tried to stand up to them they strong-armed her and last but not least they killed her dreams and her Ambitions they murdered her literally they did crimes they should pay for them but they won't but this disgusts me. I'm glad that the OP found some semblance of a life and was able to hold it all together because the greatest revenge is living well and I hope she never has contact with them ever again I hope she sees that she does not need to speak to that bag of crap who doesn't deserve to be called the father because he is no father he's a sperm donor and a bad one at that.
She can throw out OP because she is the Wife of the Owner and it's her Residence. OP is effectively a Tenant and the Bitch served OP with a Legal Eviction Notice...
Only OP's father, the actual Owner of Record could rescind the Eviction and he'd have to be in the city and go through the Courts to do it...
I think...
If I lived where a HOA existed, I'd move. My land, my home, my property, my rules. The thought that a HOA could force the sale of a home for failing to pay spurious fines (such as grass not being green enough!), really sickens me!
Why do people buy homes in a HOA again ? They are the most ridiculous things I have ever heard of .
I honestly think wedding cake tastes exactly like overcooked betty Crocker cake mix. But maybe it was just my feelings about my step mom psychologically tainting the memory.
I can't imagine living in an HOA, even if I do my research and look for one that ISN'T led by a money-hungry tyrant.
Story 2 - I used to fly every week for work prepandemic. Karens were the bane of the business travelers' existence at the airport! I can't tell you how many times I've had bins nearly snatched out of my hands as I was putting my stuff in it, because "I need it more than you, you can go over yonder to get another". Or how abusive they were to the employees in general, and especially when their travel is disrupted. I have so many stories.....
My favorite story happened while we were stuck waiting for a flat tire to be replaced on our plane. They had a hard time finding the correct tire, as it wasn't the airline's home airport. They had us move gates halfway down the terminal because they thought they had a replacement plane, then sent us back when they found out they didn't. I watched as so many casual travelers went up to the gate agents and yelled at them for the delay. I felt so bad for them. As the delay reached 3 hours, I went to the desk and asked if there was an ETD yet. When they said no, said "that's too bad, I hope they find a tire soon", then I asked if I could get a meal voucher. They printed one for me, and I kindly said thank you. Just as I was about to tell the group I was chatting with about the voucher, the gate agent announced that they were authorizing meal vouchers for everyone and how to scan their tickets to print on out at the kiosks. The amount they gave me was twice the amount everyone else got. Nice matters!
My HOA once sent a groundskeeping crew into the neighborhood to handle "too many leaves in the yard" violations. In February. With 2-1/2 inches of snow on the ground. I figured out what was happening when some dude with a LOUD gas-powered blower was on my front porch "because it's the only place with any leaves showing at all." I called the management company and, after a few moments of having to convince the woman I spoke with that this wasn't a joke, was asked to please hold... a few minutes later, the leaf blowers all stopped, and a couple of minutes after that the woman got back on the line with me and apologized for what she said was one of the stupidest things her employer had ever done. :-)
the airport check? had me grinning like the chesire cat.
Story 4: If more people bothered to stand up for themselves like this OP, the number of HOA stories would drop drastically.
Time for lawyers, cops, therapists, and prison time.
I'm grateful that HOA don't exist in my country... I still have no idea what's the good purpose to that for existing.
to not let you live happy in your house? to not let you make modifications to your house? to not work on your home? to feed entitled people who does nothing but complain about others?
Loses a phone.
Owner: Leave your name and NUMBER lol good one!
#3: OMG!!! I laughed sooo hard! Stepmonster got exactly the cake she deserves!
The Karen in the 2nd story is not 100% wrong though, those long security lines that the TSA creates are a security hazard in and of themselves. If the TSA truly cared about safety, they would give everyone PreCheck for free.
Canned frosting??? As a retired baker myself that's the worst thing she could have done. I prided myself on the home made icing I did, real butter, almond flavor, and so on. I might use a cake mix if I was in a hurry, but never canned frosting.
On the last story, great job op, i HATE hoa's.
I would've either made the man from story 1 come in and get the phone himself, or just drive it to the sheriff's office in the next town over.
Box cakes don't taste like dry cardboard. Moistness is the one thing these cakes always get right.
Lol the first thing I do when I'm missing my phone is check the bathroom. Idk why but I always forget it in public bathrooms. Even left it lying long times sometimes, but it has never been stolen or taken😅
Last story was definitely pro revenge in my opinion 😂🎉
Re: Story 3
OP really should have replied to the callous comment with "I don't know, how could you have been so callous to evict me when I was 18, and then proceed to rub it in my face?"
On the TSA one
If a small airport they most likely are wanting to get people through than arresting people that body checking people
Story 4 is why you couldn't pay me a million dollars to live somewhere with an HOA
HOA president story: This proves that if you don't like your HOA you only have yourself to blame😂😂😂😂
TSA Precheck costs roughly $25 a year. It bypasses so much stress from standing in the long lines that seem to move so slowly. It's well worth the price.
Story 3 - Stepmom was lucky just to get something edible and not a massive cow pie.
Never buy a house in a HOA
HOA story: Fines are due within 2 weeks, but appeals must be brought to the board meeting that only occurs once a year. So if you get fined the day after the meeting (or is 2 weeks and a day ahead of the next one), you don't have the ability to appeal. If the company planned out their fine deliveries right and avoided that 2 week window, they could ensure none of them are appealable. Either way, I'm claiming illegal, the whole taxation-without-representation spiel the American Revolution was all about.
The fact that the weeds that OP was killing weren't green enough (and the fact that they were there at all) is just salt in the wound.
I'm trying to visualize a Karen trying to body check a group of college ballers
There has been some neighborhood drama both at my parents' place and ours (husband & I) place, but not to the HOA extent presented here, luckily. 😬
My husband is the president of our HOA and rules about flower colors, and trash can distances do not exist. He is mostly dealing with inflation and maintenance and repair issues. You do have to get your house color approved if you want to repaint it, and yes, it has to be in somewhat neutral colors. But that rule is set by the bigger community HOA, of which we are just a part.
Stepmom is an idiot to ask the stepdaughter to make her cake after years of harassment! KARMA!😂😂😂😂😂
I get Betty Crocker cakes for my birthdays now. That Karen stepmom got more than she deserves. My GOD she got Duncan Hines!
She deserves one of my Ex-Wife's homemade cakes, they are a close call to Elly May Clampett's Pound Cakes from The Beverly Hillbillies.
TSA pre check is worth the money
For this memorial day. I will remember those lost and the sanity lost dealing with these dang entitled poop sticks
The person in story 3 is literally my hero
HOA OP has done what I say should happen with HOAs, all proposals should be vetted and declined, if it looks like the Proposer could personally benefit from it.
