The spite, hate, rage, apathy and mild irritation thread...

[BetterOffShred]

Yeah man, my work place does the "let's not upset anyone with straight answers" bullshit too. I'd rather some say "dude you're doing this wrong" than "well let's see what your growth looks like in 6 months" .. I've got a growth??

[popvulture]

Might wanna get that looked at.

Ryan Adams? Not surprised.

Brian Adams is only 44? The fuck? Oh, Ryan Adams. I'm still doing this! Although in my defence, Ryan Adams has had the cultural footprint of a ghost to me.


Anyway, you ever have that borderline suicidal depression out of fucking nowhere, prompted by who knows what and then made worse by a culmination of small events or interactions with other people? What's up with that? The phases of the moon or something? Thought I was done with this shit a long while back.

Yeah man, like once a month. Usually it's something small that actually sets me off so I just look like a crazy asshole. But in reality the small thing was just the last straw. I'm really flipping out over the last 30 years of my life

I keep trying to reload my save from 1996 and it isn't working.

FUCK!

So I just switched from smoking to vaping. Working out well, except "THE MAN" is trying to either outlaw it completely, or tax it to where it's more expensive than cigarettes.

FUCK!

[dubkitty]

or tax it to where it's more expensive than cigarettes.

given how high the cigarette tax is already in any civilized US location, is this even possible?

[BitchPudding]

Once again, my tax return is a grand total of $37 bucks. Fuuuun

[BetterOffShred]

I owe 1300

[BitchPudding]

I owe 1300

Sweet, lets be pissed at the goverment together!

[BitchPudding]

OH, and ANOTHER fucking thing. My girls taxes are way lower than usual too, and because of that we might have to postpone our wedding again. I really hope thats not the case cause FUCK I just wanna marry her already.

It'll probably be fine but we'll see.

The thing is though, you don't want to get money back on your income tax return. Ideally, you should either owe nothing/get nothing back, or even owe money. When you get money back it means you overpaid your taxes during the year. The government took that money and earned interest off of it. Essentially, you gave the government an interest-free loan. Ideally, you could have been investing that extra $X amount of money each paycheck into a high interest rate savings account, cd, money market, stocks, mutual funds etc and earned interest the whole year. I understand it is nice to get a lump sum of money at once, but it is even nicer sitting on your ass and collecting interest all year long.

I got back $9 on my federal and I owe $19 state. This is a good thing.

[BitchPudding]

huh. Shows what I know about how taxes work.

[adamajah]

or better yet invest for that average 5-8% easy return rather than the measly 1-2% bank interest

I’m just so deflated. Im working 20ish hours a week at minimum wage. I interviewed twice at Chipotle only to not get hired. I can only work within walking distance of the house im crashing at because Cincinnati transit sucks and I can’t afford an Uber. My few friends don’t want to spend time with me because im to broke to do anything and I live in a weird part of town. I can’t afford to get to a better place. I only have the job I have because I asked the manager if they needed help. I work hard. I’m good at what I do. I just can’t get to a place to do my job. I’m lonely and have no way to burn through my impotent rage. If it wasn’t for the kindness of MrMabuse, I think I would be even more lost.
