Homeowner association fees only go up to cover costs; they are
not-for-profit corporations, and if you weren't paying the money to
them, you'd be paying it on exterior maintenance and all the things that
the association pays for.

Uh, my "junk" is located internally, safe from the ravages of vengeful
toilet seats. Unless you mean the junk I store on top of the toilet
tank, which, as long as gravity works, is still pretty safe unless I
knock it into the bowl, a not-unheard-of occurrence.
