'A literal fistfight almost broke out': Man puts a $31 lien on his HOA president's $20 million dollar mansion as petty revenge, preventing him from selling it until his 'debt' is paid

HOA's are a pain in the rear. The idea of an HOA is great– have a collection of live-in leaders get together once a month to improve the building and the property they live in– but nowadays they rarely operate like that. In fact, HOA's are so useless that they can't even do simple upkeep without first lining their pockets for profit. One man decided to take a stand against a crummy HOA board by taking the most epic petty revenge of all time.

'Can my landlord do this?': 5 Times Landlords Displayed an Inhuman Lack of Consideration For Their Tenants

It's no secret that landlords have a reputation for being manipulative lizard-people who will take any chance possible to extort or exploit tenants for a little bit more profit. It's akin to when you've made a few too many whiskey sours and are really trying to take that same lime for as many laps as possible. You futilely keep squeezing and squeezing the dang thing, determined to get out a little bit more juice, despite it already having as much juice left as a politician has morals. Anyways,…
