One time I brought one of my rocks with me on a plane to touch to calm me down during the flight, but it fell out of my pocket on my way back to the bathroom and then as soon as i realized this they actually announced “did anyone lose…… . A rock” over the loudspeaker system.
When I went up to claim it the plane man, clearly unable to throw off the shackles of his training in the procedure of asking for people’s full names and birthdates when they come to claim wallets, said “wait no, first tell me what color it is so I know it’s really yours”
He seemed to realize this was stupid directly after saying it and kind of smiled like to make it a joke but the joke was on him bc I Described the fucking rock to him for like 30 solid seconds
…anyway. that was an interaction I had once
this is like the only viral post that i dont regret making at ALL
Nope! When Chrome first came to popularity, people switched over to it cause it was “faster” (turns out, it just eats through your device’s CPU) but since then Firefox has upped its game in a major way. Chrome just doesn’t measure up anymore. Plus, nowadays Chrome is just a data harvester designed to show hyper targeted ads – so even if Firefox ain’t for you, it’s still worth ditching Google for a different browser.
Legit though I switched to Firefox and it’s so so so much better
i’m gonna keep reblogging this ad infinitum so yall might as well convert now

For people with anxiety about filing taxes, here’s what things that happen when you make a mistake on your tax return:
– it gets corrected
– you get a letter in the mail either asking for some additional information or a letter showing the adjustment
– you pay the amount (there’s options for payment plans too!) or get a refund
Things that do not happen
– you’re “in trouble”
– you are charged with fraud
– you go to jail
I know that most people are probably just joking/exaggerating when they say a mistake on their return means they get thrown in jail but when I worked with the public I always would encounter people who believed that would happen and they would be panicking about it. So I like to put this out there every year because if I can even prevent one person from feeling that way, it’s worth it
I’ve fucked it up three different times and here’s the breakdown of results:
First time:
The IRS sent me a letter “Tev you owe us XXXX.”
I double checked. I owed the IRS money. I wrote them a check. It was fine.
Second time:
The IRS sent me a letter “Tev you owe us XXXXX.”
I double checked. The IRS owed me money. I told them this. They wrote me a check. It was fine.
Third time:
The IRS sent us a letter “Tev and Dante you owe us this much”
I double checked. We did pay them the right amounts but the numbers were in the wrong boxes. I told them this, they were like “oh yeah we agree.” It was fine.
