Taxes

This is perhaps the one of the most uninteresting things that I can ever make a daily flash about. I don’t know why, but I thought taxes might make an interesting daily flash. I spent some time thinking how I could possibly make this interesting, and then eventually I came to the realization that income taxes can never be interesting or fun. But here are some interesting tax-related quotes, and here are some interesting tax-related… tax deductions.

Anyway, the reason for this daily flash is that today in school, we had a guest speaker from the tax preparation company H&R Block who came in and taught us about filing income taxes (in addition to advertising the company), since we would have to do it eventually. I learned a lot more than I knew before (I knew almost nothing about taxes), but I also learned that filling out those tax forms in the future won’t be very fun at all. But then we got free H&R Block post-its, pamphlets, and pens, which I guess is pretty cool. But not really.

  • The Mighty Chubaka Finally Makes First!

  • Well we could let people throw darts at the AIG people tied to a giant spinning wheel if they did there taxes on time.

    Fun for the whole family.

  • Taxes..? Marisa is right, it is impossible. :o

  • No way that’s impossible! Taxes can never be fun!?

    yeah… I can’t see anything about them that could even be fun to anyone at all…

  • I finally decided to write a comment on your blog. I just wanted to say good job. I really enjoy reading your posts.

  • Fun taxes? NO WAY THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE! I’m going to be a wanderer just to not fill those boring taxes LOL

  • I totally expected an April Fools thing.

  • Also (I’ve been wanting to do this): NINTH!

  • Taxes aren’t boring when your parents shell out fifty bucks for you to do them 8D
    TurboTax makes the job so much easier too so it’s easy cash.

  • Taxes fun? It would be even funnier getting my teeth out of my mouth by an industrial drill ( >O_O)>

    @MarisaMuffin: HAHA, you’re the strongest XD

  • @G: Isn’t that like, tomorrow? Except in Japan, yes, it’s right now and in Mikovideo too. Or at least it was an hour ago since the site is in maintenance right now, apparently until… tomorrow. Aww, the super fast commentaries will be over by then I guess.

  • NoWaiThatsImpossible:O

    so i heard that the conficker is tomorrows O_o

  • Eh? And pixiv is under maintenance too? Let’s check Youtube… maintenance as well? At least the site is not down.

    Are they all planning something…? They are ( ゚д゚)… THEY ARE (゚Д゚)!!

  • Maybe it’s a lie, and nico will be back sooner!
    ( ゚∀゚)アハハ八八ノヽノヽノヽノ \ / \/ \

    Oh look it’s back.

  • TurboTax online at least makes filing relatively easy (if one’s investments and income aren’t too complicated), if not fun. The down side is that you still have to do some detail work if you want to itemize stuff, even if your income isn’t that complicated.

    As for sites going down for maintenance, maybe it’s to prevent April Fool’s day hackers having too much fun…or to set up April Fool’s Day jokes, one of the two.

  • Taxes, being fun? No way, that’s impossible!

  • OMG! I completely forgot about that darn April Fool! (In this lil’ place o’ mine these jokes aren’t common)… I’m shaking with fear just by remembering that Touhou RPG joke ( ゚д゚)

  • Yeah, I’m probably gonna mostly hide from the internet re: April Fools …

    btw, I finally applied myself and made a comments-system on my site, at least as far as posting is concerned. I just need to add a couple more backend functions and yay.

  • I propose letting Yuyuko do them for you

  • H&R Baka… :(

  • I totally saw the extra ending coming, but it’s still hilarious.

  • Taxes are fun when you get back tons of money by itemizing strange things, like tissues from when having a cold on the job and a new pair of shoes to walk to work in :D It’s like a game, because you can do so many things before you get audited… You just have to find that fine line, and you get massive bonus points in the form of dollars!
