[Van Cruncheon]

you

[Eric P]

i too was pleasantly surprised by the size of my return

i used it to purchase new glasses

which are still not ready

quite frustrating as i'd like to see better.

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

I used all of my tax return towards debts

[Van Cruncheon]

what ho, let us suggest the disgusting, degraded underclasses allow us to "stimulate" the economy with further tax cuts for us

Seriously.  My last paycheck, they took out $800 in federal taxes.  BS I say!  It is just all going to go to a welfare queen's 8th child!

[Arbys Roast Beef Sandwich]

I'm getting a gaming PC with my tax returns I guess!

The system works!!

[Crushed]

have you heard of that uppity boy, obama?

he wants to raise our taxes and cap our salaries!

[Phoenix Dark]

so is today the day you get some buttsex from a high scale male escort?

[Van Cruncheon]

that is only one part of the agenda of excess

[Flannel Boy]

but that happens more than once a year! 

[Van Cruncheon]

[TakingBackSunday]

I'm gonna spend mine on clothes, I need some

[Phoenix Dark]

Besides, FoC is running deals that can't be beaten - 1 karat stack I bareback

[archie4208]

I don't know if I wanna put my return towards paying off my student loans or save for surgery (I used to be a fatty but I lost alot of weight and still have the loose skin  )

[Joe Molotov]

Saving money. 

[Eel O'Brian]

i'm a single male business owner, so i get thoroughly reamed by a giant dollar-sign-shaped dildo every year due to self-employment tax

to the tune of just over 7 grand between federal and state, because i guess $30K (before i pay for all my painting supplies) is just fucking clampett-style wealth

[Brehvolution]

We are buying a reclining leather couch and love seat with our return.

The kids have stained the shit out of our old furniture that it looks like it's tie dyed.

Grim reality of business owners 

[patrickula]

As an unmarried dude with no deductions and a decent paycheck, I owe money yet again

[FlameOfCallandor]

Yay getting back money that you earned and was taken away from you!! Yay it's my birthday yay.

[ToxicAdam]

Limousine liberals.

[Flannel Boy]

Our earning potential is somewhat dependent on the society in which we live. Without the money spent on education, research, health, transportation, etc. by governments over the years, our earning potential would be significantly different. For instance, just try to imagine the Western world if governments never invested in universal primary education.

you're talking to foc

he honestly believes that that would be a better world, in which private enterprise provided all education and healthcare and transportation

[Eel O'Brian]

i'm not saying i shouldn't have to pay anything, but goddamn

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

I dunno, you certainly had enough money to buy a Netbook

Yay for a nice chunk of cash I couldn't normally save up on my own.

christmas money and gift cards 

[Mr. Gundam]

We did our taxes on Tuesday, we're getting $4,600 back this year.

Owning a house

[Tauntaun]

I guzzle thy piss as teh sweet nectar!

Prole

[Fragamemnon]

I've looked forward to tax time ever since I bought my house. Between that and the fact I make way more money than my wife, there's always a good tax return that could theoretically cover half the price of Smooth Groove's current PC.

[Bocsius]

I finally had my other W2 emailed to me today. I contracted the first half of last year, and apparently the company never updated my address and sent my W2 to my old apartment. They also didn't have the capability to reprint W2s until just now.

Refund: $1972 Fed, $200 State. It would have been about $2400 on Federal were it not for a tax penalty on a pension distribution from my prior employer (pre-contract job) at the beginning of last year. It wasn't worth it to roll the distribution into an IRA, really, so I used it on debt reduction.

[Positive Touch]

oh boy, i get ~$800 back to supplement my shitty income because i'm a single dude with no kids or home.  i'll use it to keep a continuous stream of alcohol flowing in the hope that i can successfully destroy each day's memory in order to deal with the soul-crushing misery that is being an eternal poor
