I have half a mind to capture all the seeds and then dump them on the HOA presidents lawn at night, after a good rain so they'll grow nice and strong.

Legal action...yeah right. :laugh: They'll just fine your ass.

Besides, how hard is it to pull 10 dandelions out of your yard?

These are japenese dandelions exposed to the same kind of radiation that produced Godzilla. Their tap root runs 6 feet deep complete with hard spiny barbs that go all the way down.

Not so easy to just pull them up.

Does the threat of legal action destroy them?

Or so he thought. One day, while reaching for his zipper, spidey found a note

Your penis does not comply with HOA guidelines. Please trim the bushes around the tree

hahahaha

I'll post a picture of my lawn in a week, since they're not out yet, but I'll bet I will have over a thousand.

 

[MagnusTheBrewer]

Get a can of green spray paint and give each one a shot.

 

[Number1]

Are you allowed to use weed killer? Up here, we now have 2 provinces that banned their use.

hmm, there's a large field nearby that is totally over run with them. I don't doubt I could fill a yard bag with dandelion seeds.

What started out as an idea of a small nuisance could yield devastation.

These things must be done delicately. I prefer crab grass myself. These things spread like wildfire, and not so easily get rid off. They look innocently enough when young, but once mature, they take over a large patch of lawn. If you spray them, there will be ugly patches of dead grass everywhere.

Might as well plant some bamboo discreetly around bushes or something.

I agree.
Most of my family live in rural areas.
I doubt my brother would fit in.
Somehow I don't think the HOA would approve of people that leave their old appliances in the yard and piss in the bird bath when they are drunk.

Do it. Or let them take "legal action" and see what happens. Somehow I don't think a judge will convict you for having 10 dandelions in your yard.

Also, take it to them at the next HOA meeting. Assuming the rest of your neighborhood has sense, they'll be laughed out of office.

Haha he's not going to jail over this.

Or is he?

Usually when you move to an HOA community you have to sign something saying you will follow their rules, and if you don't they can do random shit, that is the legal action they are talking about.

Whatever you signed basically gives them the right to fine you for crap like that, you agreed to it upon moving in.

I'm already coming up with my defense.

I was carrying a bag of dandelions on the sidewalk, which is technically not her property - it's owned by the city. It was a particularly windy day so I took precaution to walk carefully. I tripped on a crack in the sidewalk and the pre-germinated dandelions blew onto her lawn.

The art is not getting caught. Have you seen "The Great Escape" with Steve McQueen? Those guys know how to spread stuffs around without getting caught in the act.

HOA President's House 6 months from now?

Buy Seeds Here

 

[Nitemare]

Yet another reason to never live in a cookie cutter home where you sign your rights away through a covenant

 

[Journer]

i agree with the kudzu idea. it has overtaken Alabama for years now :/
anyways...i never did understand how HOA has any authority other than to kick you out of the association, which is a big whoop-dee-fucking-doo to me...

 

[Born2bwire]

You can't even cultivate them for soup? Those Nazis!
