    Irvine might be the worst place in the country for weird authoritarian bullshit. I’m not super well traveled, but it’s the creepiest place I’ve ever been. You can’t go anywhere without being reminded that it belongs to the Irvine Company or that you’re subject to weirdly particular HOA rules.

      My favorite is learning that literally any parking lot or shopping center that has that dark green paint between spaces means it’s property owned by the Irvine Co.

      Supposedly scumbag ceo doesn’t like seeing white lines from his helicopter (shitbag’s probably fine with them on his tabletop)
