4. "OH WEE!!!!" exclaims this HOA Peeper.

My excellent friend told me her story. She and her husband bought a house in a gated community. She enjoys having a birdbath in her backyard…and she enjoys gardening, so decorating is appropriate. Her HOA had figured out that she had a birdbath in her backyard, as it turned out. A birdbath appears to be the same as a lawn ornament, which is illegal. She stated that she would take it away. After a week, she receives another notification stating that it has not been removed (which it has not). She and her husband have deduced that the HOA is snooping in her backyard.

"She spends a week setting her trap outside, sunbathing in the nude." An HOA narc, sure enough, unlocks the gate to their property and sees her naked. For privacy infractions, immediate contact with the police is made. The HOA eventually gave up and allowed her to have a birdbath. She's now on the HOA board, and they don't bother her.” - Flynn lives' HOA tale.
