10) Claiming guy in our man-sized safe as a dependent.
9) Writing off our 401k as a gambling loss.
8) Declaring our occupation as "the Lord's work" so all of our wages can be charitable contributions.

Writing off our 401k as a gambling lossOuch.
ReplyDeleteAnother painfully funny list!
Also, I have not been able to get your Jackson Browne vs dragon song comment out of my head since last week. After reading my high school notes... I can commiserate. :)
Be thankful you only have the lyrics in your head. I have the music as well.

ReplyDeleteIn one classic example, one cat is crying, and another is hugging it and saying, "Don't crai. We'll get cheezburger someday." It's sweet and poignant and wistful all at the same time. Life can be hard, it says, and we don't always get what we want, but even as we long for things we may never have, we draw succor from the reassurances of those we love. Sure, it's ridiculous that what the cat is yearning for is a cheeseburger. But the cheeseburger is not really a cheeseburger -- it's a symbol./

ReplyDelete401K as a gambling loss is correct. Do you know what form that is?
ReplyDeleteFish can haz shot gunn blast.
ReplyDeleteBrando- I'm kind of surprised you don't have a special tea-bagging edition planned for today.
ReplyDeletePerhaps we can get Digby, Jane, and Atrios to analyze why LOLcats are funny. That would be awesome.
ReplyDeleteJ, too busy to write today, but I think I'll do something with the tea baggers tomorrow. I usually like to do the fake news stuff the day after the real news happens, so I look like real news. One of my proudest moments on this blog was finding someone who linked to my story on Mitt Romney proposing dry humping as a form of teen birth control, and the linker not being sure if I was serious.
ReplyDeleteWhat about a series of LOLcats analyzing why LOLcats are funny? How completely meta would that be?
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to both.
ReplyDeleteBrando, like this?
