It makes me laugh when the OP is accused of destroying lives when they have uncovered a crime and pursued legal action against the perpetrators. It’s always the person who committed the crime that’s destroyed lives, their victims and their own.
Like, I get a scenario in which "bully does one thing, OP ends up creating an avalanche of consequences", that is a scenario in which is sensible to be asking "did I go too far?" But another is "I ruined the lives of people that tried to do the same for their personal benefit. Did I go too far?" NO! And whoever tells you the opposite, it's just a soft person, and this comes from one of said soft people.
@@MariuigiKhed The ah's claiming they went too far SHOULD be looked into. They are either doormats that get anxious over stupid things OR are more likely doing stuff like that themselves. NO ONE is wrong for fighting against corruption and scamming. Anyone doubting themselves for their 'problems' that the deplorable horrible people bring on themselves shouldn't! No one is wrong for exposing their bs! If they don't want to deal with the consequences they shouldn't do the crimes! It's not like they are rich or connected enough to get away with it. Not likely. Though it's best to get restraining orders if they try to harass you and yours, ESP if they get their family to try and pressure you. That is some ridiculous bs to act like the family members using their made up sob story bs to try and scam MORE.
And complain that they don't feel safe walking the street, while holding 'Refugees Welcome!' banners. And choose the bear in the woods, and the woman with a sinep in their change room.
Why do Karens think it's ok to encroach on others land and then try to "buy it" as a "peace offering"? P.S. head pats to Dexter and Disnii the real stars of this channel. 😸⭐️😸⭐️
This is what I wondered too. Clearly fake story. For the second, a person with a TERMINAL illness can almost always sue for mental distress and easily win. Bills paid. No lawyer would neglect this fact. Mental health is very important to terminal patients.
When it happens, yes. I find it impossible that all these homeowners didn't bring this up at a meeting at all. Like, what is the point of an HOA if they don't meet and commingle.
Story 2: 99.5% of the time when you uncover one instance of bad behavior, you can be guaranteed to find other instances and a pattern of such if you dig deeper.
If you ever confront somebody like that you always should have somebody next to you as a witness as well as a person that that can cooperate what they have said about your pool or any other things they they might have done to your property.
Last one flip the mouse to left handed, which swaps the button functions, and also change double click sensitivity to one extreme or the other. Plus use the screen orientation to flip it upside down as well.
Worked with a guy that couldn't tap his right hand index finger fast enough. Flipped all the computers in the lab to left hand so he could use his middle finger. Talk about a pain sitting down to one of those computers.
Title story: who the hell did you have watching the property? This isn't the 1920's, you would have needed somebody to keep an eye on things! Just handling the mail and utilities would require a part time worker.
Barbara and Karen are also destroying lives by taking the money from them that could have gone towards mortgage payments and or any other expenses that they have in their life. Bullying people is still bullying people no matter what and that's a crime.
My dad was similar. His was if you got yourself into trouble, you can get yourself out of it, or if you make the bed them you're the one who has to sleep in it.
Story 1: the only people that destroyed lives was the criminals in the HOA. Anyone defending them I would personally tell them "if you defend criminals you are most likely a criminal as well. Should I pay my lawyer to investigate you as well? "
last story; op is absolutely the ahole. She wanted fast mouse speed, her coworkers, who are probably not tech savvy, can't handle the different mouse speed. The boss asks op about it, tells op that her co-workers are struggling to use the computer with these settings and op basically says "lol, sucks to suck," boss comes up with a decent solution, op proceeds to bully her co-workers by making the mouse even more unusable for people who are not as tech savvy.
NTA: OP wasn't only fighting for themselves, but the rest of the residents. They tried, succeeded for a while, got caught, paid for their crimes. They destroyed their own lives. They might want to investigate the lawyer too.
The people who are complaining that lives are getting ruined will undoubtedly trace back to being friends, or at least people who benefited, from Barbara's and Karen's schemes. If they didn't push, then these people would have a chance to get back on their gravy train again someday.
Amazing how an HOA can lose millions of dollars over one lazy Karen. I would sue them for the price of the house, mental anguish, harassment and punitive damages and pain and suffering.
First story- “AITA for seeking criminal charges against someone who defrauded a dozen people out of $50k, threatened to take away my house, and put the HOA at a huge risk of lawsuit.” No, sir…. No, you are not.
The last story, someone asked fora slower cursor, and ended up with a curse of their own, in the slower cursor. Now me I'd have planted the cursor as far way from from where the settings are accessed at, and set to as slow a speed as possible. Then if they laid into me, I'd simply state, "well you said to slow the cursor movement speed down, only you didn't specify the speed setting".
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Story 1, NTA HOA definitely need more oversight and less control. An HOA, shouldn’t not have the power to foreclose on somebody’s home, they are not a Band or Government Organization.
First story: NTA. What was stopping them from doing embezzlement again? They stole money and they even said they did nothing wrong. I say they need to suffer the consequences of their actions.
I mean...technically, anyone could keep any job while in jail. Its not really in the US court's jurisdiction to fire you. Indeed, if the time in jail is short enough and the crime is such that the employer doesn't care, an individual could just take a sabbatical while in jail and return to the job afterward. (I knew a guy who ended up in jail, but because it was generally believed in the community that the police railroaded him, his boss kept paying him while he was in jail, as though it was just a normal vacation.)
those people who said op went to far should be charged double to see how they like it they dont care about the lives barbara and karen destroyed or wrecked with their scheme
All hoa problems could be EASYLY FIX by law when ever a house is sold , removed the required must join & new owners have right to say NO NOT GOING TO JOIN , - hoa try’s so easy to foreclose on everyone the all new owners will say no then will lose their power , so will learn to to be such a duche & foreclosuring. WE NEED THIS TO RAININ TYRANT HOA’S so all state & federal pass this
The first story, while it's heavy duty revenge, I wouldn't call it nuclear. Full nuclear would have meant that nothing would have been left of that H.O.A. with me. There'd have been nothing left to rebuild from, at least not with me anyways. As for being thee jerk no way Jose. They did the crime so they got the time, now their bed was made and they're the ones that gets to sleep in it. Plus there's have also been a call to a certain tax agency here in the U.S. to have an in depth look at the tax records of the two.
As Don Henley so poignantly stated in the song, "Gimme What You Got"; You can arm yourself, alarm yourself But there's nowhere you can run 'Cause a man with a briefcase Can steal more money Than any man with a gun
OP did the right thing. If those two had of gotten away with it they would have gone on and done it somewhere else. By the way, I noticed a gold band on your left hand. Did you get married?
Story 1: OP didn't go far enough. NOw he needs to publicly expose the people who insist that the fraud should have been allowed to continue quietly. I guarantee that if the perpetrators had not been "reutable" middle class women, *nobody* would have objected to the criminals being treated like criminals.
Having worked with two older ladies at an internet auction place who relied on their computer stations to be set up in a particular way to do their jobs without me having to walk them through everything again, I assure you that does not apply to everyone
First story not the a-hole or maybe you are the a-hole why didn't you get rid of the HOA when you had your chance that was foolish frankly you get what you deserve
there has to be a way to make the HOA president recuse themselves from any disputes that they are involved in, sue the shite out of her for being the a-hole
I hate when people say something like “I didn’t want to call the police because I didn’t think there was anything they could do”. CALL THE POLICE!! Even if they tell you it’s a civil matter they will write a report that is evidence for your lawsuit.
"We take time to process these things", if it takes longer to process then it takes for then to start tacking on late fees and even filing a lean, then they got serious problems. The HOA (karen and barbara) made their own bed when they decided to start extorting new homeowners by deliberately mismanaging papers. These 2 woman were running a deliberate extortion racket, they absolutely deserve to go to prison for their crimes, especially since they never showed remorse even when caught.
“You went too far Barbara & Karen are facing serious prison time”. Yeah that’s what happens when you get cause running predatory financial crime, what they are describing is the justice system working as intended. OP went exactly far enough.
First story: Naw. Do the crime. Do the Time. They knew what they were doing and mail/bank wire fraud for each instance? Going to be a LONG prison sentence.
It makes me laugh when the OP is accused of destroying lives when they have uncovered a crime and pursued legal action against the perpetrators. It’s always the person who committed the crime that’s destroyed lives, their victims and their own.

Yeah. 6 figures isn’t a small amount of cash.

They did that to themselves. By being criminals.
The same people who accuse him of "going too far" are the same cowards who bend over and pay the double charge.
And say criminals are the victims and victims are the criminals.
And complain that they don't feel safe walking the street, while holding 'Refugees Welcome!' banners.
And choose the bear in the woods, and the woman with a sinep in their change room.
He didn't go far enough should have disbanded the HOA
I don't care how amazing a house is. If it is a part of an HOA it is NOT my dream house!!!!
Why do Karens think it's ok to encroach on others land and then try to "buy it" as a "peace offering"? P.S. head pats to Dexter and Disnii the real stars of this channel. 😸⭐️😸⭐️
Story 1: The OP did not go too far. Financal Crimes are still crimes.
Second Story: If he had a friend staying there for 3 months, surely they would have noticed the fence being pushed back?!? Why didnt they mention it?
cuz its an AI story
Wait..... Did she just say pay again? She knew what she was doing
Story 1. NTA, they had no problem ruining other people's lives, threatening to take houses etc... now they get free federal housing for a few years...
"I had my friend watch the house"
Wait ... And the friend didn't notice what was going on??
That was my first thought too.
Yes, how quietly could the fence have been dismantled, moved and reinstalled...?
This is what I wondered too. Clearly fake story. For the second, a person with a TERMINAL illness can almost always sue for mental distress and easily win. Bills paid. No lawyer would neglect this fact. Mental health is very important to terminal patients.
Absolutely, OP was in the right. Theft is theft after all. He not only helped his situation but the situation of the entire neighborhood.
"until we process it, you still owe the fees"
"We are very busy here, it takes time to process the fees"
Hmm .....
Embezzling $200K is major crime.
When it happens, yes. I find it impossible that all these homeowners didn't bring this up at a meeting at all. Like, what is the point of an HOA if they don't meet and commingle.
NO, OP...SCORCHED EARTH. Y'all did the right thing, Sir.
Story 2: 99.5% of the time when you uncover one instance of bad behavior, you can be guaranteed to find other instances and a pattern of such if you dig deeper.
You can sue her for the proper value of the land plus fines.
You should stop the realtor as soon as an HOA is brought up. "Next!" Great stories, Ripe.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Double Charge Story: Not the A-Hole. They Dug their own grave. You just filled it in after they fell in.
from all these video's it seems that having a HOA at your old or new adress, devalues the property...
If you ever confront somebody like that you always should have somebody next to you as a witness as well as a person that that can cooperate what they have said about your pool or any other things they they might have done to your property.
S1: I would say OP specifically went nuclear on "Barbara" and "Karen". The HOA still exists, but it sounds like a far better one... for now.
The 2nd story the guy is "I won't go into details", because its personal to him, he than proceeds to spill all the details lol.
"Surely she wasn't that desprate for a pool, right?"
"She was that desperate, and don't call me Shirley." Sorry, I could pass that joke up.
Classic.
Story 1: NTA. They chose to take advantage of people and victimize them financially. They deserved every bit of legal consequences they got.
Last one flip the mouse to left handed, which swaps the button functions, and also change double click sensitivity to one extreme or the other. Plus use the screen orientation to flip it upside down as well.
Great, give the ahole more ways to bully her less technically savvy co-workers.
Worked with a guy that couldn't tap his right hand index finger fast enough. Flipped all the computers in the lab to left hand so he could use his middle finger. Talk about a pain sitting down to one of those computers.
Stupid is as stupid does. Buying into a HOA YOU GET WHAT YOU DESERVE.
Story #1 OP did not go nuclear on an HOA he went nuclear on CROOKS! NTA
Title story: who the hell did you have watching the property? This isn't the 1920's, you would have needed somebody to keep an eye on things! Just handling the mail and utilities would require a part time worker.
Its your fault for dealing with the HOA!
Barbara and Karen are also destroying lives by taking the money from them that could have gone towards mortgage payments and or any other expenses that they have in their life. Bullying people is still bullying people no matter what and that's a crime.
Story #2 is lucky. Some people have come back from the hospital to find a new family living in their home.
I'd be side-eyeing any resident who thinks he 'went too far'. Were they in on the scam but didn't have any actual involvement?
Thought the same. They were in on it.
My dad always told me you do the crime you do the time.
My dad was similar. His was if you got yourself into trouble, you can get yourself out of it, or if you make the bed them you're the one who has to sleep in it.
Story 1: the only people that destroyed lives was the criminals in the HOA. Anyone defending them I would personally tell them "if you defend criminals you are most likely a criminal as well. Should I pay my lawyer to investigate you as well? "

pretty sure the HOA in the pool story knew about Karen's plan and fired her as a "please don't sue us" tactic
NTA: OP wasn't only fighting for themselves, but the rest of the residents. They tried, succeeded for a while, got caught, paid for their crimes. They destroyed their own lives. They might want to investigate the lawyer too.

Did you put GoPro collars on the kitties? If not, what are they? Also, Dexter is such a character, full of sass. 😊
Airtags do they don’t go missing❤
The people defending the HOA ladies were getting a cut
"if you pay the original amount again"
Again?!?
That was actually an admission of guilt.
The last story, someone asked fora slower cursor, and ended up with a curse of their own, in the slower cursor. Now me I'd have planted the cursor as far way from from where the settings are accessed at, and set to as slow a speed as possible. Then if they laid into me, I'd simply state, "well you said to slow the cursor movement speed down, only you didn't specify the speed setting".
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Story 1, NTA HOA definitely need more oversight and less control.
An HOA, shouldn’t not have the power to foreclose on somebody’s home, they are not a Band or Government Organization.
If you build a pool on my land its mine. I'd re fence it and use it.
First story: NTA. What was stopping them from doing embezzlement again? They stole money and they even said they did nothing wrong. I say they need to suffer the consequences of their actions.
I see that your kitties have eye boogers, too, like mine.
thats what hoa is doing anyway 9:59
"Karen was fired for her behavior"
so there was a chance she'd still be hoa president while behind bars?
I mean...technically, anyone could keep any job while in jail. Its not really in the US court's jurisdiction to fire you.
Indeed, if the time in jail is short enough and the crime is such that the employer doesn't care, an individual could just take a sabbatical while in jail and return to the job afterward. (I knew a guy who ended up in jail, but because it was generally believed in the community that the police railroaded him, his boss kept paying him while he was in jail, as though it was just a normal vacation.)
First story: OP is not the a hole. Criminal activity took place. Good for you.
I'll just get a lawyer involved
those people who said op went to far should be charged double to see how they like it they dont care about the lives barbara and karen destroyed or wrecked with their scheme
All hoa problems could be EASYLY FIX by law when ever a house is sold , removed the required must join & new owners have right to say NO NOT GOING TO JOIN , - hoa try’s so easy to foreclose on everyone the all new owners will say no then will lose their power , so will learn to to be such a duche & foreclosuring.

Thanks for the Great Stories today Ripe,, keep up your amazing work & I will see you all tomorrow,,😻😻😻⭐⭐⭐😹😹😹🥃🥃🥃
S2 I would have Said Thank You for the Pool I think I will enjoy this Pool because it’s ON NOT YOUR LAND KAREN ?.
Stealing his land is not rude, it’s illegal.
Op did what was needed
St.2, To rub it in thoroughly, should use some of the money to install your own pool, of course with all the permits.
The first story, while it's heavy duty revenge, I wouldn't call it nuclear. Full nuclear would have meant that nothing would have been left of that H.O.A. with me. There'd have been nothing left to rebuild from, at least not with me anyways. As for being thee jerk no way Jose. They did the crime so they got the time, now their bed was made and they're the ones that gets to sleep in it. Plus there's have also been a call to a certain tax agency here in the U.S. to have an in depth look at the tax records of the two.
The hoa deserves getting sued
first story Definately not the ahole
If someone commits a crime there are consequences if you say they shouldn't your part of the problem
As Don Henley so poignantly stated in the song, "Gimme What You Got";
You can arm yourself, alarm yourself
But there's nowhere you can run
'Cause a man with a briefcase
Can steal more money
Than any man with a gun
OP did the right thing. If those two had of gotten away with it they would have gone on and done it somewhere else.
By the way, I noticed a gold band on your left hand. Did you get married?
1st story nta for getting justice but yta for paying the fees you shouldn't had paid for those fees I know I wouldnt
♾️⭐️s and 😻🤗s for Ripe, JB, Disney and Dexter!
Thumbs up for Ripe and the channel...
See you again tomorrow...

Happy Sunday Funday Everyone,, I hope You all are having a great weekend,,😻😻😻⭐⭐⭐😹😹😹🥃

I guarantee that if the perpetrators had not been "reutable" middle class women, *nobody* would have objected to the criminals being treated like criminals.
21:16 Is that a GPS device on Disney’s collar?
Edit: I think it’s an AirTag.
Yes airtag.
They where off to easy
Person on Reddit, am I the a****** for doing something completely reasonable?
😂😂
1st story...nta what hoa did was very illegal on so many levels. op would have been a jerk for not going nuclear.
It's actually not too hard to get used to high mouse cursor speeds.
Having worked with two older ladies at an internet auction place who relied on their computer stations to be set up in a particular way to do their jobs without me having to walk them through everything again, I assure you that does not apply to everyone
"but I joined because the one in the neighborhood seemed alright...", and that's when he knew. He'd f'd up.
Hey, Ripe you need to get a black cat to be the opposite of the white one. Black cats are lovable too.
That’s my potentially secret plan for the future. I actually had a black one waaaaay back in the past. They are super cute as well
You always report shit like that to the cops so there is a file on record.
"You're ruining lives, they're facing jailtime." Counter point, they comitted fraud and stole thousands from the neighborhood.
First story not the a-hole or maybe you are the a-hole why didn't you get rid of the HOA when you had your chance that was foolish frankly you get what you deserve
story 1 those people are brain dead NTA
🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟.....are for the great video. Love all stories. Keep them coming.
there has to be a way to make the HOA president recuse themselves from any disputes that they are involved in, sue the shite out of her for being the a-hole
You did the right thing.
HOA’s are to be avoided at all costs. Just live anywhere else.
I hate when people say something like “I didn’t want to call the police because I didn’t think there was anything they could do”.
CALL THE POLICE!! Even if they tell you it’s a civil matter they will write a report that is evidence for your lawsuit.
Sadly usually people say that due to some cops don't actually do anything in some places.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️DISNI & DEXTER⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Just give me another reason to stay away from HOAs.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
not the a-hole, criminals are criminals they have to face the consequences
At 5:45 I would have said: "That's fine, you'll be paying those fees anyway."
The hoa story; the rest of the hoa board should be held liable for being complicit in the theft, even if they did not profit from it.
Good thing the guy with cancer didn’t want to go into details.
Actions have consequences. Don't know why anyone would think it wrong for people to face consequences of their criminal actions.
11:17 as a wise kyptionan once said, "the HOA had its chance!"
Hoa will get the ceo treatment soon
Sue for emancipation from the HOA on account of fraud and failure to uphold their contractual obligations...
"We take time to process these things", if it takes longer to process then it takes for then to start tacking on late fees and even filing a lean, then they got serious problems.
The HOA (karen and barbara) made their own bed when they decided to start extorting new homeowners by deliberately mismanaging papers.
These 2 woman were running a deliberate extortion racket, they absolutely deserve to go to prison for their crimes, especially since they never showed remorse even when caught.
My big question with the pool story, if he had a friend in the house while he was in the hospital, why didn't he do anything.
“You went too far Barbara & Karen are facing serious prison time”.
Yeah that’s what happens when you get cause running predatory financial crime, what they are describing is the justice system working as intended. OP went exactly far enough.
First story: Naw. Do the crime. Do the Time. They knew what they were doing and mail/bank wire fraud for each instance? Going to be a LONG prison sentence.
