Today, I got my tax return. I was really excited. Turns out the government does take the time to send out a tax return for $1.36. FML

what happend to fML?!?! I'm going to stop reading these. Seriously. People need to get their lives to be more FML-ish!!!

my first time doing my taxes, I got back $5. lol

How do you not know how much you're getting back ahead of time? You figure it out right on the form.

My appreciation for paying taxes, and not sponging off of me.

not sure I understand this... but I like anything to do with 'lock and load'...

FAKE! Even if you filed the extention for october 15th, the IRS demads that you round everything to the nearest dollar so everything will come out even. Even if you do not round to the nearest dollar if you submitted electronicly the program will auto round for you, I fyou did it by paper the IRS rounds it anyways. So there is no way that you would have gooton a refund with change attached, nice try next time say 1 dollar or 2.

Absolutely wrong. IRS regs clearly state that if you use change with your dollar amounts, you MUST use it in every line, on every calculation.

Umm.... I'm pretty sure on federal taxes (I've only been doing them 8 years and am about to get my CPA so I might be wrong here) it states specifically 'be exact' everywhere. Also every return I have gotten has had change attached like last years was $3,486.43. If you round and get audited you are going to be in deep shit. The Government likes every penny to be accounted for.

almost everything the govt does is stupid and a complete waste of money. the one good thing cash for clunkers did is get all the pos cars with obama stickers off the road. thank god.

Did you know that America still pours money into the homestead act? Despite the fact that the extreme majority of American farms are commercialized, Midwestern states elect a group of conservative senators who fight against the repeal of this useless bill. Obama has done the best he could with what he has been given.

WTF... "extreme majority"? Me thinks your grammar is extreme.

in canada they don't bother with differences of 2 bucks. so if you owe 1.99 you're good.
