Denver HOA Looks to Ban Sidewalk Chalk Art

Jun 11th 2012 7:36PM (AOL Real Estate)
I think HOA's need to be banned. It's one thing to maintain a house to have a uniform look like all the others in the neighborhood. But HOA's take this to extremes. You go pay $400k for a house only to be told that you can't do what you want with it, and also have to shell out another $250 to the people telling you that you can't do what you want with your own home? We paid dues in my neighborhood growing up because they went to pay for the pool and for someone to cut the grass in the common areas. That was about it. HA's take this to telling you what you can and can't plant in your yard, what color you can paint you house, how you can fix up your home,...ect. People claim the government is poking their nose into your business, yet these people are 10 times worse. I agree that some rules are o.k. to maintain the uniformity, but when they start telling you what flag you can fly in front of your house, they have gone too far. If you want to know what a socialist government is like, live in a neighborhood with an HOA.

Mobile Phone Use While Flying: Not All That Popular Says Survey

Jun 2nd 2012 1:17PM (Gadling)
Who wants to listen to that loud arse next to them yapping it up on their phone the entire flight when your tired and just want to sleep? There is no need to allow phone calls, please don't. That's enough to make someone want to switch airlines. So is the stupid fees for sitting in a window or aisle seat. Air travel used to be luxurious. Now it's been reduced to being packed into a sausage tube and extruded out at the other end.

Mortgage Rates Hit Another Record Low

May 5th 2012 4:32PM (AOL Real Estate)
The fact that mortgage rates continue to go down should be a big warning about how stable the economy really is. While house prices continue to fall, other prices continue to go up. The recession pretty much wiped out everyone's savings accounts and priorities were forced to change as a result. And with everyone attempting to save money now, no one has any left over to buy houses. This is forcing private business owners to continue raising prices to have money and replenish their lost savings. Until that stops, it's unlikely the economy will ever really recover.

Short Sales: The Long and Short of Them

May 3rd 2012 6:33PM (AOL Real Estate)
The banks cheated everyone by artificially inflating home prices. Now they are about to lose everything they made off of doing that because lots of people are choosing to do short sales now. It was really worth it for the banks to destroy the economy and still end up losing out.

Report: Deadliest Warrior studio head misrepresented military experience

Oct 7th 2011 5:02PM (Joystiq)
He didn't completely misrepresent himself. The command he worked at is special forces, however he deals with imagery. I can't go into specifics, but I'm sure everyone knows what a camera is.

Octomom Brings 9 of Her Kids Along for Chaotic 'TODAY' Visit (Video)

Jul 8th 2011 4:17PM (PopEater)
She has way too many kids to effectively look after them herself. I'm sure she is doing the best she can, but it's apparent that the kids are not individually getting enough attention from their one and only parent. This means they will grow up thinking more instinctively and most likely end up with some of them in major trouble later in life. Also 40 miles a week on a stair master or anything else would be equivalent to about an hour a day on the machine. How does she have time with 14 kids to spare an hour a day? She is basically using that hour to relieve stress and anxiety from having 14 kids, but also neglecting the kids in the process. Although when the kids get older, they will be a little easier to manage when they won't demand so much attention from the mother.

Report: Amber Portwood Calls Suicide Attempt 'Euphoric, Wonderful'

Jun 16th 2011 1:10PM (PopEater)
This girl needs serious mental help, and the media is only egging her on with all this coverage. And for Pop Eater to release this story only shows how the lacks of morals in this country is degrading society. I've lost all respect for Pop Eater now. They would sell out their own grandmother.

NFLer Says Kim Kardashian 'Pursued' Him; Star 'Has No Idea Who This Guy Is'

Jun 8th 2011 4:00PM (PopEater)
The fact that Kim made a statement referring to the other guy as a loser makes me think she has met him before. That's a very personally oriented statement and it's unlikely anyone would use it unless they are just not very impressed with the person. It also implies that the person using it is speaking instinctively, and not intelligently. Go figure, It's Kim Kardashian after all.

Mother of 'Genderless' Baby Storm Speaks Out

May 31st 2011 12:44PM (ParentDish)
She does this for freedom, yet doesn't seem to understand that freedom is a relative concept. No one in this world is truly free, and never will be again. You will always be under the control and influence of some government or another, and if one topples, another will only step in to fill the void. And one persons definition of freedom is different from another since freedom is relative to that individual, so what exactly is freedom. Some people think we should be able to do whatever we want without consequence, but all actions have consequence. That's life, and trying to raise a genderless baby will probably only result in the kid being referred to as a eunuch, or outcast. Once again, substituting personal ideals off as parenting only results in bad parenting, and another jacked up child in the world.
