Find a new accountant? As an ordinary person with no CPA training, I read and understood the wording that said if you file and extension and you owe, you’ll have to pay penalties after April 15th unless you send the government money when you file your extension. The IRS is pretty clear about that and your accountant…

I am lucky enough to have a job where I can log onto the payroll system and adjust my witholding to the cent whenever I want. It was my goal last year to wind up exactly at 0 (partially complicated by my wife’s job, and by the lack of witholding in her side gig). Unfortunately, there were a few “disruptions” along the…

uh fuck that, have you ever dealt with the IRS? No thanks on that front, they’d fuck it up constantly. 

that’s almost 2 6-figure jobs. and what the fuck is your definition of rich if making more than 90% of households somehow isn’t included in your definition?

You can run your information through the IRS withholding calculator available on the IRS’s website to give you a better idea if you should adjust your W4. I believe it isn’t going to be exact, but will give you some idea on how you’re doing.

I might owe at the end of the year because of my withholding. I’m looking at it as not giving the government a short term interest free loan.

I don’t know it’s the greatest con in American history. How a New York City silver spooner tricked the flyover WHITE salt of the earth to believe he was one of them and had their best interests in mind is the greatest scam ever pulled.

Did Putin show an ID when he bought Trump?

“If you go out and you want to buy groceries, you need a picture on a card, you need ID. You go out and you want to buy anything, you need ID and you need your picture.”

Maybe he DID choose his words carefully. We have a third hand accounting of them, after all — a tabloid writer’s summary of what one of Jonas’s friends thinks that Jonas thinks. I doubt anyone of us would sound good filtered through that many layers of other People’s bullshit.

Lame. Develop a new, better character, or admit publicly that you’re actually The Salty Waitress’ burner account.

... Did we read the same letter?

if by therapy you mean smoking a big fatty of some good herb and maybe a stiff drink before dinner next time so that you can let go of your inhibitions and laugh hysterically at their inane conversation and maybe mock them a little bit till they feel stupid enough to quiet down, then yeah that’s a good call... 

Forget the discrimination aspect for one second. I don’t care if I’m a purple Muslim hermaphrodite from Jupiter, if I fucking paid for premium I am sitting in fucking premium, and no fuckers are making me sit in fucking coach, from my severely beaten lifeless body are you taking this from me.

“She was obviously tuning out her husband so she could listen to the people at the next table. Not only was she rude to those diners she was rude to her husband. She probably stiffed the server on the tip too since she was so outraged at other peoples private conversation.”

I’m confused.  They paid for Premium Class and then they tried to move one of them to coach?  That might be the real crime here.  I care way less about sitting next to my husband than sitting in first class [I can only assume, since I only ever get to fly coach].

I’m so sorry - that’s awful.

She moved...closer to Monterey I think? I feel bad because I know she and her husband really loved Big Sur. I know it’s beautiful but between the mudslides and the fires I couldn’t take it.

From her kind and rational response, Herwees seems like a pretty stand-up gal.

Much like civics, writing is one of those subjects that’s less and less important in schools. I work in government, and I recently got over 200 resumes for a position that required writing skills. JFC, I assumed most of the applicants’ speak English as a second language. One woman’s cover letter was nothing but…
