I'm pretty sure the multicoloured wizard was referring to the Canadian government, so I'm pretty sure you'd be safe.  :lol: And I have also heard that filing late is no big deal if you're owed money, but if you owe money then they'll ding you interest.  I was even audited by the CCRA once, had to provide all of my daycare receipts.  Which I did, so really it was no big deal, just a hassle.  Here in the USA I'm afraid to do my own taxes, we shell out the cash for an accountant.   :unsure: 

That's pretty much where I was going, thank you. And I got this information from OfficialTM sources.:lol:

I have been working on a paper for my last class this semester, 12 - 15 hours a day, for the last 3 days.  My brain is melting. I don't know if that is the purpose of this threat, but I just read several posts about cows and bad puns so I'm utterly convinced this is the place for me tonight.

Yes, brain melting is what this thread is all about!  Welcome Home!

 

Yes,indeed.

We're helping!:bday:

I have found that hearing the Sword in the Stone being referred to as Excalibur makes my eye twitch. Though it depends on which version of the legend that you follow.

Oh Gods, me too!!

So I just ran into a somewhat awkward situation. I placed an order for food at a place, and on my way to go pick it up I stopped at one of the parking lots I'm supposed to check on. This parking lot happens to be right behind the place that I ordered food from. I found a car with enough unpaid tickets that it qualified for a bright orange wheel accessory, and began the process of putting on its new bling. Then the guy who owns the car comes out of the restaurant that I ordered food from, says it's his car, and asks for leniency until Thursday, when he'll have the money to pay off the tickets. Turns out he's one of the managers there.

 

Being that I just ordered food from the place, and would be walking inside in mere minutes to get said food, I decided to cut him a break in hopes of having a spit-free meal. It took a few minutes for them to bring my food to me after I went in to get it, so I probably just ate a spit burger anyways. It was delicious though...

He might now actually pay up on those parking tickets. He knows you know where his car is parked. 

 

How nice was the customer service? If it wasn't nice, maybe go back by there again tomorrow and decorate his car. If it was nice, Maybe give him until next Monday? (With the assumption he should have been paid by then.)

The girl running the register was nice. She even laughed about it because she knew exactly who it was. But then it took a couple minutes to get the food still and it was being prepped out of sight, so, you know, they could have still spit in it. The guy himself is the delivery manager, and he said he'd have them paid by Thursday, so I told him he'd have a week before his car got some new bling. And then he sped off. But we know where he parks, and where he works, and what his job is there, so it's almost guaranteed that we'll see him again soon enough.

 

I try not to be a jerk at my job. I give people a pass if they come up while I'm writing a ticket and their meter is only expired by like 15-20 minutes a lot of the time, and I try not to yell at people if they're in their car and parked somewhere they shouldn't be. Unless they're an uber driver, because those people are almost all jerks even if you're being nice to them, and they don't learn even after being told multiple times. I even try to cut delivery drivers a break a lot of the time despite them never paying their meters, because if I'm checking meters outside their shop and know it's a driver I'll poke inside and give them a chance to pay before I write a ticket.

As someone who has gotten, deserved, and paid parking tickets, I appreciate it! Glad the job is going well. 

 

Slowing drinking my first cup of coffee before I head out to my soggy front yard to begin to demolish my front steps... :blink:

I've done that too.  It's remarkably cathartic, especially when one's hammer is sufficiently massive.

It's not the demolishing that's got me worried, it's the putting it back together after.

Imagine if the likes of Lego and IKEA got together to make a set of DIY home parts and furniture that was essentially giant up scaled Lego pieces and flat pack style instructions?  Eg a set of Lego steps that could be taken apart and reassembled again?

 

How is that not a thing already even if just as an art installation or something, where people assemble a house out of classic Lego bricks scaled up?

Good Mornin' Ever'body!

As the proud benefactor of some nebulous Admin or Professionals Day and a mighty fine breakfast spread, I figured I would share the good cheer!  May you be as full as we are! May your coffee be strong, dark and smooth!  May the breakfast desert induced euphoria last through the entire day!  And may the rain gently fall upon your fields and forests...

I'll be over here at my desk trying to stay awake...
