With six figures of credit card debt, the $1200 stimulus check really didn’t do much for us - we just went ahead and splurged on a few things we were going to buy anyway.

Yeep, six figures! Yeah that’s like a tiny drop in the bucket for you.

Geeky Dragon Girl | 06.17.2008 | 7:08 AM




Yeah.  How about a $120,000 stimulus check?

Avitable | 06.17.2008 | 8:11 AM




Hehe, that one extra 0 makes aaaaalllll the difference! That would definitely stimulate me!

Geeky Dragon Girl | 06.17.2008 | 8:14 AM




Heh.  Look at you, making a dirty pun without even realizing it.

Avitable | 06.17.2008 | 8:18 AM




Ha! I should change my name to GeekyDirtyGirl.

You’re way too innocent and full of naivete about all the bad, dirty things in the world, I think.

Avitable | 06.17.2008 | 8:23 AM




And I didn’t mean that as a bad thing.

Avitable | 06.17.2008 | 8:25 AM




You’re right. I still think goatse is a type of cheese.

Geeky Dragon Girl | 06.17.2008 | 8:27 AM




And I’m so sorry I had to try to open your eyes on that!

Avitable | 06.17.2008 | 8:31 AM




Well I’ve heard it referenced a couple other times, so at least now I know what they’re talking about. Though to be honest, I had to look it up on wiki again to remind myself what it really was. I’d blocked it out I guess. I went straight to Wikipedia because I figured they wouldn’t actually post the picture. If I want to see the inside of a rectum I’ll get a colonoscopy.

And of course, you can’t forget lemonparty.

Avitable | 06.17.2008 | 8:38 AM




Lemonparty, ah yes… the ah… gathering of lemonade connoisseurs!

Think you might have got a little off topic there guys… I have just done some very disturbing Googling as a result of that.

I won’t do anything with my Stimulus check, since I wont get one, since the British government would rather burn money than give it back to the taxpayers. They recently spent over $1BN US and 13 years on 8 Chinook helicopters that (still) are not airworthy.

Isn’t western society brilliant…

It’s no wonder I hate following politics. It only makes me mad.

The Ontario government tried this about 10 years ago with a $200 “dividend” cheque. It wasn’t a dividend because the government was running a deficit. It had little effect on the economy. However, $600/person to a population of 300 million is a lot of change to be dumping into an economy. It will get spent, one way or another.

Bobolink | 06.19.2008 | 8:36 AM




That is true, and in all honesty, I didn’t put the entire thing towards the credit card payment.
