For the most part, I enjoy the neighborhood that I live in.\u00a0 The vast majority of the people who live here are friendly and\/or mind their own business.\u00a0 This one Karen in the neighborhood whom I had some heat with actually died a few years ago, and her surviving family is a big sausage party that seems to mind their own business.\u00a0 We do have an HOA, but it is run by the community and not outsourced to some bullshit company, and our annual dues aren\u2019t egregious and we do actually get a few parties throughout the year to kind of justify the money we dump into the HOA.<\/span><\/p>\n But let\u2019s just be real here, there are always going to be households in everyone\u2019s communities that ruffles a few feathers, and obviously I am no exception.\u00a0 Some behaviors are less savory than others, and depending on whom one might ask, might be perceived as anything as total assholes to first-world problems.\u00a0 Instead of trying to ignore the problem or the neighbors, we just fantasize about waving a magic wand and straight up just evicting from the existing in the neighborhood; nobody wants to see anyone hurt, you just want them out of your<\/em> neighborhood, and hopefully replaced with someone else who doesn\u2019t suck.<\/span><\/p>\n The difference is, most people keep these general grievances to themselves or within their own households, but for people like me, they become brogging content.<\/span><\/p>\n The first household that comes to mind as one that I\u2019d like to magically evict from the community is what I like to refer to as, the excessively multi-generation household.\u00a0 This is a home where the actual homeowners are probably right at or adjacent to full-blown senior citizen status and are most likely original owners of their home.\u00a0 In fact, they themselves are rather nice and polite people, and I\u2019ve never had a negative interaction with them before.<\/span><\/p>\n It’s just the circumstances in which their household exists that causes me some annoyance, and probably to others in the neighborhood if they were to stop and think about it.<\/span><\/p>\n So the OG owners here, they have like 3-4 grown adult children, whom have all appeared to have gotten married themselves and spawned numerous children.\u00a0 One of these adult offspring still lives in the OG home with their spouse and children, presumably in the basement, seeing as how they have a finished basement with a separate entrance.\u00a0 Which brings the resident count to somewhere between 5-7 people, including the OG elderly husband and wife.<\/span><\/p>\n The thing is, the other adult kids are always over at the OG parents\u2019 house, along with all of their entire families, so it\u2019s like at any given point the house is overflowing with like 10-15 people, depending on how many of their adult kids are over with their kids.\u00a0 It doesn\u2019t take a genius to surmise that the adult kids are over as often as they are, because grandma and grandpa are near, and usually willing to be free childcare, while their parents can coast with their lives knowing they have trustworthy hands available to parent in their laziness.<\/span><\/p>\n As a result, this is a home that always has a full driveway, and almost always has cars spilling out onto street parking, which is something I always find obnoxious no matter the circumstances, especially in a community like ours where just about every house has a driveway that can accommodate 6+ cars without breaking a sweat.\u00a0 Plus, their home is situated on both a hill and a curve, which means that all other passing traffic has to exorcise extra caution when passing their home, because they won\u2019t be able to see past whatever truck, minivan or SUV is parked on the street.<\/span><\/p>\n It’s not just about the parking malady they often create with their reliance and exploitation of the OG owners.\u00a0 It\u2019s the fact that all the adult kids and their own offspring take advantage and enjoy all of the benefits that actual homeowners are privy to, just because their parents still live in the home and maybe they once did too many moons ago.<\/span><\/p>\n When we have a block party, their household rolls up 15 people deep, when two are actual HOA due paying homeowners and the rest are their freeloading kids and their kids on top of it.\u00a0 They come an eat a ton of food and their kids play on the bounce house and water slides that our community rents for children of the residents.\u00a0 It just irks me in an unpleasant manner that no, I don\u2019t want to just, not worry about, because it\u2019s bullshit and it\u2019s not fair to the rest of the community that actually lives here.<\/span><\/p>\n One year, we had a pool opening party, and this entire household rolled in 14 people deep.\u00a0 Again, they\u2019re helping themselves to the food that my dues went towards, but worst of all were all their fucking kids in the pool, splashing and taking up space, and I\u2019m trying to enjoy wading around with my daughters, while these freeloaders are just all over the fucking place inadvertently splashing my kids with their rambunctiousness.<\/span><\/p>\n I\u2019m not the only one to have noticed this exploitation of the rules at least as far as the pool is concerned, because when the pool opened up this year, as a gentle reminder<\/em> when the rules of the pool were distributed for the season, there was an interesting new bullet stating that \u201conly eight people allowed per household,\u201d which I\u2019m fairly certain applies to pretty much just them.\u00a0 But it\u2019s not like anyone can really enforce it, and I\u2019d wager money that there\u2019ve probably been multiple occasions in which these leeches took over the pool 12+ people deep.<\/span><\/p>\n The funny thing is, even though I\u2019m not particularly keen on how much this household takes advantage of the general friendly disposition of the community, I\u2019ve never had any negative interactions with them, personally.\u00a0 Whenever I\u2019ve spoken with any of the adults at any of our community functions, they\u2019re all nice and cordial, if not aloof and a little negligent when it comes to parenting.\u00a0 I\u2019m sure they\u2019re decent human beings as individuals.<\/span><\/p>\n But when the day is over, I\u2019d rather just evict the entire household.\u00a0 Just this past weekend, I had to wait an excessive amount of time while OG granddad struggled to back a trailer into the driveway, because there were already four other cars in it and a truck on the side walk, so just being able to pass was impossible until he was finished.<\/span><\/p>\n Had the home been occupied by one of the more normal households, with single families, no more than 2-3 vehicles and no freeloading adult offspring, the roads are clearer, safer and less congested with overpopulation bullshit.<\/span><\/p>\n So in conclusion, if I had a magic wand that could humanely remove them from my community, evicted!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For the most part, I enjoy the neighborhood that I live in.\u00a0 The vast majority of the people who live here are friendly and\/or
