'Update: I found a loophole!': Home owner shares their tactic to get around HOA "bald spot" ruling

"Tell them to sod off," quipped one person who was thrilled at this homeowner's HOA workaround. 

When you picture your dream home, maybe you imagine a big lawn for your kids to run around in. Maybe you envision a wrap-around porch where you and your friends can sip lemonade in the summer. Perhaps you dream of a home where you can decorate it in any color or style: your imagination is the limit. 

Well, you can forget most of your housing dreams the moment you move into any neighborhood run by an HOA, or homeowner's association. These groups are famous for their strict nature. They'd prefer to control every little aspect of the neighborhood, from what color your home is painted to the plants you choose for your front lawn. Why would that be their business instead of yours? Beats me. You're the one paying that mortgage, so until the HOA coughs up some cash, they shouldn't be making any demands. That's the unfortunate and high price one pays for moving into an HOA-run space. 

This person knows that all too well, but at least they scored a small victory. Check it out below. Then, have a laugh at these utterly bizarre divorce cases.
