A large group of Karens is called an annoyance.
Apparently, it's not a gaggle.

I though it was agreed it was a complaint…
overzeetop@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I was under the impression it was called a Privilege
SrElsewhere@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Nuisance is the legal term.

HOAs just like unions and governments are as good as the people that involve themselves in them and the less people represented in the democracy the more power you have in it so if you’re not happy then get involved.
ultratiem@lemmy.ca 2 years ago
In my experience the people that “involve” themselves are raging clowns with superiority complexes.
Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
And they have control because they don’t have opposition from people who aren’t like them… Welcome to politics, it’s the same thing at all levels. Get involved or shut up. You don’t vote? Then you agree with whatever the people who do decided.
TheOneWithTheHair@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Oh, I am happy… I have no HOA.
Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
That comment wasn’t pointed at you specifically.
thepianistfroggollum@lemmynsfw.com 2 years ago
Exactly. You don’t hear about good HOAs because the people who live in them have no reason to discuss it.
TheSanSabaSongbird@lemdro.id 2 years ago
True in theory, and while I realize that this is purely anecdotal, in my experience as a contractor, HOAs are invariably a giant pain in the ass to deal with.
What you want as a contractor is a professional property management company that’s used to dealing with construction contractors and is familiar with industry standards and basic reality.
Fortunately I don’t work in residential construction anymore.
CoderKat@lemm.ee 2 years ago
I kinda agree with you. In theory, they definitely are. But at the same time, in practice, the already bad reputation of HOAs seems to attract the worst kind of people. It’s a political position and suffers just like any other political position. The kinds of people who’d be best at it often don’t want to do it because it’s toxic.

The younger babushkas (60-70) run flat associations (HOAs for blocks of flats) in my country. Very strict about what you can put on your door, mailbox etc.
ShitOnABrick@lemmy.world 2 years ago
They aren’t Karen’s there babushkas
uis@lemmy.world 2 years ago
They are wiser Karens. And with dementia.
MargotRobbie@lemm.ee 2 years ago
That reminds me, I used to think getting that haircut would make me look all cool and badass.
I really don’t know what I was thinking.

Oh no, Doctor Toboggan, I’m not ready for 8 on-screen kids… yet.

Shorted down to “Ho Ass”
kamen@lemmy.world 2 years ago
The word “homeowner” contains the word “meow” in it; now you can’t read “homeowner” in any other way.

Thank you for this gift

I read somewhere else another suggestion for a name which was brilliant: Klanned Karenhood
CherenkovBlue@iusearchlinux.fyi 2 years ago
Wow… This isn’t a clever shit post, it’s just sexist claptrap.
Smoogs@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Wow now we finally reached ‘karen’ replacing ‘nerd’ insults.
Akasazh@feddit.nl 2 years ago
I’m not in any way familiar with HOA’s but… in my mind they should be filled with at least a proprotion of bored boomers.
Karen’s can be boomers, butcan they be male?
uis@lemmy.world 2 years ago
In Florida yes
JunglGeorg@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Why is this so accurate 😭🤣

Flashbacks to being 17-18 and working retail.

Have you seen Orphan Black? Everyone is Tatiana Maslany. Even me. Even you.

American crime writer, Karin Slaughter, threw a cute little Easter Egg into one of her books. One of the busybody residents in an upscale neighborhood is named Alison Hendrickson.

A cornucopia.

If only workers’ unions were so widespread and powerful as HOAs…

I want to talk to your manager… about workers’ rights!
