"...we must lay siege to the HOA"

What? No! I glad hand them like some obsequious minion, so they will not suspect me when I crush them beneath my boot in a single night. I have no interest in a seige. I want a quick victory and then back to business when the time is right.

Edit: two of the HOA management stole a puppy I was fostering. I will be merciless when their day is done.
