The horrific story of "Megan and the HOA Murder" tomo night on True Crime.
Used to have an admin that would fully spell out every word except ‘pls’.
“pls don’t microwave fish in the breakroom”, etc.
You spell out every other word… is ‘please’ really that hard to write?
Shouldn't it be 'tmrw'?
I'll tell you tomo
Came here to say this. Maybe we're too silicon valley and she's too whatever the other valley is in valley girl.
Are they the same valley? Am I having a stroke?
I've never seen that either but I like it more. Not much more but it's a low bar.

Tomo means friend in Japanese (友), so my bilingual ass would probably go the other direction and end up interpreting her messages to be more cheery than intended.
"Tomo the street sweeper is coming through so don't forget to park in your driveways."
"Tomo we are holding our annual HOA elections; make sure to attend!"
"Trash pickup was days ago, so don't let me catch your cans out tomo."
You know you're going to be suffering the FOMO until you do it.
If you are in an HOA you already fucked up.
I was so shocked when I learned that in the same country that gives guns to children because muH FrEedOmS, you cannot let your lawn grow out on your own property because some Karen down the road doesn't like the way it looks.
Getting decent housing that isn't in an HOA in some regions is a privilege a lot of people don't have. At least they were still able to attain some homeownership.
I live in the "hood" and I have no HOA.
Fuck them "whites only" redlining neighborhoods where you don't even have freedom.
Btw it isn't even that bad as depicted on TV, they over-exaggerate everything. I still alive after a decade, haven't personally known anyone that died to homicide. The upside is that there aint any nazis around here at least, so for me as a non-white its actually safer than those racist-ass neighborhoods. As long as I don't go near drugs or gangs and I'm fine. And also remember to stay away from pigs.
If someone can kick you out of your house because you painted your fence the wrong color then you don't own your house.
Why is everything in the US so damn weird? We don't have HOAs over here.
Usually, the answer is racism. In the case of HOAs, though, I'm going to guess that it's probably racism.
ETA: I looked it up on Wikipedia. The answer is: racism.
Americans are dumb.
Source: me a dumb American
Like everything in life, not all HOAs are the same. There's definitely a bias surrounding them, because people who live in good ones don't complain every time they're mentioned.
But how hard is it to turn a good one bad? You really just need one or two people with money and nothing to do.
That's true for pretty much anything, though.
Confidently incorrect
You should purposely misspell it from time to time to ..... homo
And when people point it out, just apologize and say it was a typo .... be very apologetic and sincere and even offer to send cupcakes to them for the inconvenience (include some mild laxative in the cupcake .... and alternate to cannabis the next time it happens)
“homo ass” is short for hom(e) o(wners) ass(ociation)
“homo” is for short for hom(e) o(wner)
Also can be
"homo" - hope of missing out
I used to work in a place with people who's title was Program Analyst. And in all the HR/IT systems they were always shown as PROG ANAL next to their name and photo.
I was 100% expecting “Pro Anal” when I read “program analyst”.

At least you don't have a co-worker that messages you Happy Fri-yay! and Happy Fri-yay eve!
Sounds like somebody's got a case of th Mondays
If I had a coworker like that, I'd begin to understand Ted Kaczynski more
How well do you understand him at this time?
If I was still in the office this would be my new things to annoy everyone
I started saying friyay ironically and now im in to deep and its part of my vocab. Dont follow me down this path, the costs are to high
I learned a long time ago that the things you make fun of can become part of you.
Solid advice, friend. Cheers
100%. If I make fun of something or say something ironically, I have a hard rule of once only. There's no need to harp on and beat the dead horse anyway. Once is enough to make your stance known.

Eeyah Tomo m8! Giz a swig o' that!
Lol no Tomo.
This didn't deserve a laugh, but it got one. Well played
Good! For a second I was worried people were gonna think I was tomophobic.
I know I'm getting older but this would bother me as well. It seems like a terrible way to shorten the word in my head. I think my brain just doesn't like vowels and wants words to be shortened to end with consonants. Things like HOA make sense because they are all individual words.

Tomato tomo 🍅
I thought it was 2moz, at least that's what I've seen here in Australia
This is why your people were exiled to the other side of the planet.
That was the real crime of those convicts... How they spoke!
Yeah tomoz is common. Also see: tomoz arvo
Is it still a true crime if it gets dismissed as justified?
Now I would like to see a show that is similar to one of those crime shows, but features only justifiable homicide.
