Things That Are Bothering You, Got You All Hibbeldy-Jibbeldy, or just downright pissed, RIGHT NOW!

You should Vine "Money for Nothing" and post it on here.

I think we've already established that what GF is very similar to what my refund increased due to having a second child last year. So, basically, he's subsidizing me.

Thanks, GF! I bought some really cool stuff with it and socked away a good bit for a rainy day. I think my favorite purchase with it was the Mark Knopfler tickets I dropped a couple hundo of it on. I'll be thinking of you while I'm there.

(Not)

Enjoy the trickle down effect, biatch.

On a related note, the student loan deduction cap is pissing me off. Why is it the same for a single person and married couple?

The IRS took my monies today

I realized that I'd never checked to see if my wife was withholding the right amount.

She wasn't. By a lot.

No penalty (thank God) but we have a hell of a tax bill. Like, 30% of our total for the year.

I really want to do mushrooms. I wonder if they test for them.

You'd probably end up doing something like this

I had something like that last year. Not quite that much but it was still a large check.

Sucks, brah.

I got raped by cap gains tax.

I don't feel sorry for you guys at all.

@UnFacconable, to answer your thumb question, there are a bunch of credits with kids that you get regardless of whether you itemize, but, no, I don't itemize. This is mostly because we don't own our primary home. We moved a bit in the last few years, and we're renting until we're sure this is it for a long while. Oddly enough, we do get some tax benefits from a home we own, but that's in the form on on-paper losses on our rental property.

Enjoy the trickle down effect, biatch.

I do not think this means what you think it means.

Lol. Was just about to post the same regarding GF's post.

I have a coworker what uses a register of English she han determined is "professional." In reality, it's a bunch of hyperbolic adjectives, platitudes, and high rising terminals in her speech. Drives me ******* nuts. Use regular words. ****.

I ordered spennidge to be put on my sandwich but instead they put on lettuce ("lechuchay").

Could be worse. Does she employ an overload of vocal fry?

No vocal fry but definitely the high rising terminals. What makes it even more infuriating to me is that she only does it with clients or people outside of our office. Just be real with these people you don't need to wish everybody a wonderful day and you don't need to tell them that their work is wonderful and incredible.

And she even does it in small emails within the office. It's really weird and I don't know where she learned it but she needs to unlearn it. For example this is from an email chain about a lunch for another coworker:

"Please respond to this email confirming the date and time works for you. Once I receive a confirmation from the office I will proceed with a calendar invite. Feel free to share any ideas or suggestions."

Cmon, there are only a few of us this tone is totally inappropriate.

You have two options, check yourself into this rehab facility for a month (at your own cost with no pay) or you get canned.

Or three, be a boss and get a pass with a poppy seed bagel story.
