Home Owner's Association

The people that tell you what you can and can't do to the aesthetics of your house.

Oh, okay.

I...I am not actually sure if we have that here or not. Hmm...:scratchchin:

I do know people who had to deal with them, but they were in gated communities .

as far back as i can remember, I've NEVER had to deal with HOA. so we did whatever to our house and it was fine. It wasn't until i moved in with Mara that I had to worry about it and I'm like, "Ya know, I don't care about the conformity of the neighborhood and if I don't want to trim my hedges because I don't have time and I feel like letting them grow, I should! Besides, directions to the house would be easier! 'See the house with the overgrown and half dead shrubs? Yeah, that's us!'"

See? So much easier!

 

[kimiko]

Heh, yeah.

It's probably more so people cannot paint their houses stripped black/purple/yellow/green/blue or something, though, I heard some can be really strict.

No one should tell you to trim your hedge if you don't want to, that crosses the line!

it's ridiculous. we've gotten notices about our hedges and they sent two back in August because my roommate had an AC unit in his bedroom which is upstairs and facing the street. They told us we had to take it out. i think we've gotten notices about our lawn looking like crap. XD

Re: Oo ee oo ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang! The Witch Doctor OT

Nevermind XD

That is annoying though. Don't you just rent the house though?

 

[kimiko]

Might be your neighbors =X.


The only people who I know that really have perfect hedges are either retired or they hire people to do it for them .

We live in a neighborhood with mostly retired people. They make us look really bad with their gorgeous lawns.

i think us and another family are the only gringos on the block. lol! and the guy across the street calls my male roommate "familia". They drink beer together sometimes and have no idea what the other one is saying. i don't really know my neighbors. the kids that run back and forth across the street are hilarious and have really bad mouths!!

one day, the boys were playing football and calling each other *****es and a bundle of sticks and dropping the f-bomb. LP and i laughed because we thought it was hilarious, but bad and then we reminisced about what would've happened if we said any of those words.

That's pretty funny, I guess bear transcends all languages

Yes, I would have never said anything like that as a kid, there would have been much hell to pay on my end.

Re: Oo ee oo ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang! The Witch Doctor OT

same here! i would've been slapped and had soap down my throat!

 

[kestegs]

Re: Oo ee oo ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang! The Witch Doctor OT

Oooo! I think I got soap once! I know my sister did for sure, though. She was the bad one, I was much nicer.

 

[kimiko]

Like "A Christmas Story"?!? :scared:

 

[Leopold Stotch]

Re: Oo ee oo ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang! The Witch Doctor OT

i remember getting soap in my mouth when i was three or four. gawd, it was a horrible experience. nothing like A Christmas Story. all he had to do was suck on that thing, lol!

i got spanked and slapped. that was our punishment. The Belt... *shudders*

 

[kimiko]

I drank a bit of soapy water once, pure stupidity there =_='.

As for trouble, well, that was my bro, I tried to avoid it at all costs *innocent*. <---would be a good spot for that innocent smiley

 

[kestegs]

Eating soap is awful, we don't do that to our kids, at least not yet.

 

[Leopold Stotch]

Re: Oo ee oo ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang! The Witch Doctor OT

i agree, kimiko! We need to have an angel face smiley or something.

I tried to be good, but there were times when i had such a bad attitude! Kegs, you don't seem the type to say bad things in front of kids so im sure they have no idea what foul language is. ^_^

haha, remember when you would get shampoo in your eye as a kid and how bad it would sting? lol, now it's just itchy and irritating.

 

[kimiko]

There used to be one, along with my fav :hide:, others too.

I learned such language from classmates or my bro and his friends =X. Even while trying not to use it, it comes out subconciously from time to time :whistling:.

Shampoo is still no fun, though, there was a time when my bro and I were helping with the mashed potatoes and ended up with salt/pepper on our hands, rubbed our eyes and OH...MY...GOD...that hurt like no other, so so bad >_<.


Wow, how bad are my eyes, instead of "shampoo", I had written "soup" thinking it was "soap".

the worse is jalapeno juice. even after you wash your hands, the stinging agent is still there! >< :O DX
