I'm gonna get hosed so hard on my taxes. I was on unemployment for 6 months with no taxes being taken out and I made over $6k in one month as a sub-contractor on my 1099G.

I think I just cycled past my first case of "old person mistakes throttle for brake" on my way home. They've stuffed their car into the farthest little tree centre of frame, coming from the Tesco behind the camera: https://goo.gl/maps/z3Ty7 I don't even know how. It did snow today, I dunno if everyone's freaking out because of that.

I was thinking the same thing since I have worked basically another full time job for half the year, but I did the quick calculator and it looks like I will owe like 60 total. now i just need my other W2 to actually get it done.

some texas redneck posted:Oil chat. That's pretty spiffy using natural gas as a base stock and makes it more of an actual synthetic than the highly refined products. Honestly, if they get the desired base stock it really does not mater the process unless there is a glaringly obvious reason to choose one process over another. Filter wise, Fram makes everything from filters which are a absolute crap to products which start to compete in higher end market segments. The biggest reason I avoid their products is that product quality can vary significantly from one manufacturing location to the next. At least with a cartridge filter you can do a quick visual and see if there are any major issues (both before you install it and after you remove it.)

Hi five there hosed on taxes buddy! My wife does mostly contract work and for 2013 we owed $3500. We are also pretty sure 2014 is going to be worse.

instead of AC Delco. It's a cartridge filter, not canister, so I can actually see the guts.. and it actually includes a new o-ring for the oil filter cap. ... and now that I look at the receipt, it rang up for $2 higher than the shelf tag.

I used to have this thing where i did not want to bother people with my problems, so i figured i could fix it my self. i first dug around with my leatherman, but i just couldent get into the wound properly. i then made an cut to give myself some room and finally got a pair of knipex to pull out the piece of pine. i used my dads camera lens cleaning baloon thingy to suck away the blood as i was going along. my problem started when the CA glue would not bind the wound together because of the blood and also maybe because i am not a model airplane. i got abit stressed out and sent a pic on my phone to the girl i was dating to ask for tips to close it. she called an ambulance and i was taken to hospital where they debrided and cleaned the wound, tried to repair the nerve damage i had caused and yelled at me alot. too this day i have a loss of sensation on some parts of my legs and the 400 year old floorboards that my father had refurbished just before have a large stain. I have to preface that i was at a pretty bad spot in my life, and this episode led to alot of that being sorted out via therapy. I had just done my second stint as a firefighter/stretcher team leader at an aeromedical hospital in Afghanistan and was way too proud to realise that i needed help to manage some of the stuff i had seen. and also...the first step in my surgery was a bottle of Dworek Vodka.. Its kinda ironic. 8 years ago i was hoping to not make it to 25. Now i am 30 and just hoping i get to see my kids grow up... E: holy poo poo, that came out more honest than i planed. sorry about the EN fjelltorsk fucked around with this message at 19:25 on Jan 29, 2015 |

Terrible Robot posted:I'm getting $1 back on my tax return. Everyone else I work with is getting $1200 or more. I owe $1. The difference between owing $500 and owing $1 was keeping itemized receipts of all purchases this year for the sales tax deduction. The IRS 'standard' sales tax deduction was off by about 40%.

I hope you get your poo poo sorted and get to shout at your kids for doing similarly amazing things. jammyozzy posted:I think I just cycled past my first case of "old person mistakes throttle for brake" on my way home.

I've kicked the idea around of doing this a few times but it seems like the ROI in terms of time might be mind-boggling. How did you keep track of all of it, or did you shove it all in a shoebox and enter it all in at the end of the year?

Looking for a place to live is dumb and I hate it. Especially when there is four vehicles between you and your roommate. Also, I'm getting like $8-900 back, totally buying unresponsible E30 poo poo.

I think if we hadn't had Baby Ulysses 3 weeks early (was due early jan) I would be on the hook to pay 3-4k but I think we might even get a bit of money back, which is great cause we paid off the defaulted student loan and the treasury won't steal our return like they did the past 2 years.

I'm still waiting on a few tax documents, but I should be in line for a $3-4k return this year, based on the fact that last year was pretty similar to 2013 and that's what I got then. It's also going to be first year I won't be spending every penny of my return to make an additional payment on my student loans too

You will need to explain this to me, because in the Aust system you would be due a fair bit back, given your tax is based on your total yearly earnings and your unemployment would in effect lowering your yearly earnings and thence most likely you would be getting a refund. Doesnt a proper Pay As You Go system exist in the USA?

We ruined a dude's day today. He brought in a ton of autographed stuff and all his certificates were clearly fake as gently caress He was trying to get us to say it was all legit so he could sucker this other dude into buying them but there was no way any of it was legit. He had a bit of a meltdown and stormed out, dropping some framed poo poo and breaking the glass.

The CoA's were all junk and the signatures were sloppy. The rest of his stuff was all mass-produced and barely worth 1/10th of what he was asking. He was expecting $500 and we assessed it at $120 tops.

In Michigan, you get the option to claim 10% of your unemployment as federal taxes. Assuming you aren't so destitute that giving up that 10% it isnt an option, its the way to go. I had a 4 month stint on it a few years back and I didn't end up owing anything at the end of the year because I had them claim the 10%.

Well that was some bullshit. Went to Princess Auto, started filling a cart with all the stuff that I've been borrowing from the other techs a bit too much lately and then left my cart in the aisle to go to the cramped little corner where they keep the air tools. Come back, my cart is gone. A little cheesed I grabbed another one and filled it with the same poo poo. Go to use the washroom before I check out, the new cart is gone. I think these people take store tidiness a bit too seriously.

Not really ai, but my wife and I took a day trip to Salzburg via train. The Augustiner brewery is great, the beer is super fresh. We also did the castle tour there as well. BMW museum tour is neat, if you want plant tour tickets, buy in advance. Discounts if you have BMWCCA! Ps, book the hotel now too.
