THIS IS A SHOUTING THREAD ABOUT TAXES →[More:]

WHY THE FUCK IS THE LONG FORM NY STATE FORM TWO PAGES LONGER THAN IT USED TO BE!? THE STUPID INSTRUCTIONS SAY THAT THEY DID IT TO REDUCE CROWDING ON THE ORIGINAL TWO-PAGE FORM, BUT IF YOU USE THE FILL-IN .PDF FILES, YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT SHIT ANYMORE! AND WHY THE FUCK DO WE HAVE TO FILL OUT A SEPARATE FORM FOR THE W-2S WE RECEIVED!? THERE'S A REASON W-2S COME WITH SEPARATE SECTIONS THAT YOU CAN TEAR OUT AND FILE WITH YOUR STATE TAXES, YOU KNOW!

AND I'M OUT OF CIGARETTES UNTIL I GET TO WORK TOMORROW! IT'S ENOUGH TO MAKE ME FINALLY GET A FUCKING ACCOUNTANT WHO IS NOT MY MOM! DOES ANYONE WANT TO HELP ME DO MY STATE TAXES? I WILL PAY IN WUFFLES AND OTHER THINGS TO BE DETERMINED OFF-LIST!

IF I'VE GOT DYSLEXIA, CAN I USE THIS THREAD TO SHOUT ABOUT TEXAS TOO?

OH YEAH, WE HAVE TO PAY TAXES TO FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FOR OUR STATE TAX REFUND. THAT IS SEVERELY FUCKED UP.

posted by fenriq 03 April | 22:52

FENRIQ: I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THAT! IN FACT, I'LL START:

AUSTIN, TEXAS HAS THE ALAMO DRAFTHOUSE WHICH IS THE COOLEST IDEA FOR A MOVIE THEATER I HAVE EVER SEEN. THERE'S ONE IN ARLINGTON, TOO. WHY ISN'T THERE ANYTHING LIKE THAT HERE IN NYC?! AND IF THERE IS, WHY HASN'T ANYONE TOLD ME ABOUT IT YET????

I LIKE DOING TAXES. SERIOUSLY. I'M GOING TO DO A FRIEND'S, AND POSSIBLY ONE OF MY ROOMMATES. THE FORMS MAKE A LOT OF SENSE IF YOU LOOK AT IT THE RIGHT WAY.
