YTA, Township. So this guy, Kevin, posts on NextDoor (already a 🚩) that his HOA sent him a passive-aggressive note for having a decorative gnome in his front yard. The gnome was holding a sign that said, “This is fine.” during a wildfire. Kevin, being a terminally online sociopath, decides the only logical course of action is to go full Malicious Compliance. He buys 47 MORE identical gnomes and arranges them in a pentagram around his mailbox. The HOA fires back with a violation letter for “occult symbolism and community morale disruption.” Kevin, of course, posts the letter with the caption, “I’m literally shaking rn. AITA for wanting my property to look like a scene from Midsommar?”

TL;DR: Man turns his lawn into a gnome shrine to own the HOA, now they want him to exorcise his yard. Am I the drama? (Spoiler: yes). 📉🌩️
