With all the recent civil demonstrations and protests that quickly turn violent or where the person does something completely illegal to make a point about how they were wronged (AKA Acting like a donkey cave) I remembered this story from when my Father lived in the area and I fondly remember visiting this specific act of civil disobedience because it was HILARIOUS!

Gist of it was the man built his house and installed Turf instead of grass because in south Florida their is an almost continues water shortage so having fake grass would save on water usage. Nowhere in the HOA does it say he couldn't do this, unfortunately someone complained and they made it into a giant fight over nothing. TO protest the man read over the HOA Agreement line by line and found a loophole. It doesn't specifically spell out how his house has to be pained so.....POLKA DOTS!

lol Yeah I remember reading about that! Around here we have a funny story sorta on that line. There's a local business owner actually named, well the common nic name for Richard? Any who he named his storage lot dicksstorage and someone thought that was extremely perverse and wanted it changed. So they go to court for like 2 years and eventually the judge says he can name it whatever he wants simply because it's his and its his actual name.

So after that ruling he changed the storage to BIGDICKSSTORAGE! Yes all caps with the ! In there. The best part is he bought some semi trailers and painted them all flesh tone link and made sure they look rather phallus lol

That reminds me of a removal company in Sydney the owners (who's parents must have been funny fethers- are named Andrew and Peter Nuss. SO you have vans driving round with initial.last name combinations. Always makes me smile.
