Ah, the board. God love them. Youâd swear we were married to them, the way they carry on. And not a good marriage either, no. This is the sort of marriage your mother warned you about, the kind where you wake up every morning wondering how you ended up chained to a liar with a hand in your pocket.
đđ The Cheating
They cheat on us with lawyers and contractors the way a drunk husband cheats with barmaids. Bold as brass, they donât even bother to hide it. They come back smelling of betrayal, tie crooked, pockets lighter, and expect us to kiss them on the cheek and say nothing. And when caught? They sigh and say, âSure it meant nothing, pet, you know youâre the only one.â
đ€„ The Lies
If lying were an Olympic sport, our board would be draped in gold medals. They lie about the money, lie about the rules, lie about the minutes. And they lie so much theyâve forgotten the truth themselves. You ask for records, they tell you âThe system ate them.â Aye, the systemâs got a fine appetite for documents, hasnât it?

đ„ The Drinking
They drink our money like itâs cheap whiskey. The reserve fundâs their pub tab, and they never leave the bar. Every invoice is another round. Every lawsuit, another bottle. And when the cupboardâs bare, do they sober up? Not at all. They just reach into our wallets and say, âYouâll cover this one, wonât you, love?â
đŁ The Abuse
And if you dare to speak? If you dare to ask where the moneyâs gone, or why the rules apply to you but not them? Theyâll turn on you faster than a drunk in a bad mood. Youâre the mad one, the unreasonable one, the one who should be grateful they havenât spent even more.
đ The Trap
Hereâs the cruel joke: in a marriage this rotten, youâd go to the priest, youâd get it annulled. Or youâd see the judge and be free by Christmas. Not here. Oh no. Here youâre trapped. The deedâs in your name, the cheaterâs got the house, and youâre stuck paying their bar tab for life.
đ Itâs not a partnership. Itâs not even a marriage. Itâs a sentence. And the wardens, God bless them, wear name tags that say Board of Directors.
