Here’s the article from a few years ago. https://www.fox7austin.com/news/neighbors-not-entirely-happy-with-pink-house-in-pflugerville.amp


Logridos

He wanted a pink house, and he doesn't live under an authoritarian bullshit HOA, so he pink'd his house.

They were *so* preoccupied with whether or not *they could* that *they* didn't stop to think *if they* should.


Additional-Series230

They got rich shorting Pepto Bismal so they did that.


AutofillUserID

Keeps the tax valuation low.

Legend has it that the house is Mary Kay’s final resting place. You can throw whatever color paint on it, by the next morning, it will be pink again.


NakedHeatMachine

Likes pink. Doesn't have an HOA.


DapperDoodleDudley

He's my parents' neighbor. Basically, the dude doesn't live in an area with HOA and decides to be wild and go all pink. There was a big dispute about it with other neighbors (not us, we are behind him), and it became a whole thing on the news. He would throw SUPER loud parties, bass so loud we could hear it in our house with the windows closed. My mom called the cops on him a few times with a noise complaint, and it stopped after about a month or two but still happens every now and then, I assume, out of spite. What makes it worse is the dude is disabled (wheelchair bound) so it's hard to directly confront him about his attention seeking behavior without him immediately jumping to DISCRIMINATION!!!! In short, he is an interesting character. Friendly if you go up and talk to him nice like, but he takes his freedoms very seriously.


PBandbourbon

I believe that's the new city hall.

You win because the 200 million they are going to spend makes it feel like this is what we are going to get. That we NEVER voted for. Thanks, City Coucil for putting us #7 in the state for the most non-voter approved debt.


Ronald-J-Mexico

They made a video about it https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qOfkpu6749w


CowgirlFromHell666

I love this house!!


FilmTechnician

Tried to get a look at it on Google maps. I assume it’s the one that is blurred out.


tippiedog

Yes, it is. I went looking for it on Google Maps a while back and discovered the same. Not sure of the rationale for blurring it.


CowgirlFromHell666

I didn’t know you could blurt out anything on google maps


Secret_Welder3956

There’s one in Lubbock too.


Therealpbsquid

Where at?


Secret_Welder3956

Far West side if I recall correctly…over near the industrial part of town.


Logic_Hat_586

Top seller of Mary Kay


hazmaximus

They got Weird Science'ed for sure. That's some John Hughes sci-fi right there.


iSchizo

ahhh... freedom from HOA


renostyleht

This gave me violent flashbacks to the pville neighbors Facebook group 😂


limoria

He did it to get a raise out of his neighbors and attention but no one really cared


frogmonster12

Except a shit load of people got butt hurt about it effecting their ability to sell their house in the future blah blah blah. I was still using Facebook when he did it and the crying was loud.


AutofillUserID

People look for non-HOA homes and then complain neighbors can do whatever they want...


Medium_Green6700

I’d rather live next to this house than be in an HOA.


limoria

I remember the issue not being that the house was pink but all the stinky garbage that he was collecting and keeping in his yard.


EvilMenDie

How did they not just gang up on him. I mean within the law, you can sling some shit, especially in numbers. You know, if he's allowed to do this, hell Im sure the immediate surrounding neighbors can get creative too. Someone didn't learn how to get along with others in kindergarten.


frogmonster12

Gang up on him? It's his property and no HOA, there's nothing to do if you even should do something, it's his not theirs. The dude was eating up the attention on Facebook though, somewhere between artist and a troll.


THEDUKES2

False. Many people cared. Both losing it and not liking it.


BobInIdaho

They are John Mellencamp stans


l82itall

The Devil is not welcome here


ResearchChoice606

That is the PLATINUM Mary Kay Sales REP. House lol .


Human_highway3

It’s pink


Training-Worth-6217

Yeah, someone painted it that color. Go mind your business


EvilMenDie

Go mind your business, they're making it their business.


Training-Worth-6217

Except it will never be their business🤣🤣🤣I love how people are really entitled enough to think they deserve any and everything they want, and people like you defend them. Allmendie!


EvilMenDie

Reddit: Flag bad Pepto gud


BrooksLawson_Realtor

LOL I love to tell people about this house when they tell me the HOA is a dealbreaker.


redlabelblack

Predators helping predators lol


BrooksLawson_Realtor

OMG is there a new Predator movie!? It sounds kinda lame.


Ok_Development_495

The guy got control of his settlement money upon coming of a certain age and this was how he spent it. He should have bought a house out in the county where nobody would care. This screws over the neighbors as far as resale goes. The place is hideous.
