by HOAs, short for homeowners associations, have a reputation for micromanaging every little detail. Whether it’s the color of your mailbox, the length of your grass, or the crime of leaving a trash bin visible for six minutes, nothing escapes their watchful eye. These 21 memes perfectly capture the absurdity, pettiness, and unhinged energy that some HOAs bring to the table. If you rent and think your landlord is annoying, just wait until you see what it’s like when your neighbors form a committee.

hehe oops, did I do that?
2.
This is the kind of pettiness the world needs more of. Angering the local HOA while doing good for nature. Love it.
3.
Save yourself the headache. If it’s in an HOA, run away.
4.
If the HOA doesn’t have a rule against it then I fail to see the issue.
5.
HOAs have no chill.
6.
May I suggest getting a hobby? And no, obsessing over my life is not a hobby.
7.
Just following HOA rules, nothing to see here.
8.
Is it really YOURS if you live in an HOA?
9.
No but seriously, how did this even become a thing and why aren’t people stopping it?
10.
They are not making the point they think they are making. That color is gorgeous.
11.
Malicious compliance is the solution for almost everything, ESPECIALLY breaking the spirit of karens.
12.
This is brilliant and exactly what they deserve for telling a homeowner how to store their trash cans.
13.
Don’t forget the constant smug look on their face (except when they are defeated by a master of pettiness).
14.
Don’t make the mistake of thinking you have creative freedom over your own home. That’s like a bat signal to the HOA.
15.
If you know how they operate, it becomes your duty to save others from the pain.
16.
Oh you know it’s big when drama gets moved to facebook.
17.
What do you mean? That’s a brand new bush. Well done!
18.
It’s important to always follow HOA rules.

The HOA can’t expect you to be psychic. If they had something specific in mind, they should have said so.
21.
Sometimes pettiness requires compromise, and I think that’s beautiful.
