What do HOAs do, other than tell people what to do with their properties?

My HOA handles, among other things, all exterior maintenance. They take care of landscaping, snow clearing in the winter, gutter clearing in the fall, they power wash the siding and decks every few years.

Well, technically they contract people to do those things, but still, I love it. It’s totally worth the monthly dues and not being able to paint the house whatever color I want (which I don’t feel like ever doing anyway).

Imagine the Admiral’s face if Data showed up in the CIC on Galactica

I could see this being a good comic arc.
