I put the website (back soon) there because it's my name, my v e r i f i e d username and my bio have my name in them. Look me up anywhere.
- having the same reaction to news that 45 year old rich hill took a minor league with the royals as comic fans to the superman trailer. lump in my throat, tears in my eyes, i believe in wonder again. nothing is impossible

View full threadI see me now with this two foot green plastic thing, whipping it full sidearm from my squat little frame, far left of the pitching rubber, while the umpires are all standing around saying "we checked the rule book, it's legal" after I brain a fourth consecutive Yankee like Randy Johnson gone good
- Your Honour the Club would like to cite the precedent of Rich Hill v. Several National League Lefty Hitters. It is a 2029 case involving cybernetic implantation
- I was getting pretty good distance with the Chuck-it with my left hand while out with my friend's dog at the park this morning. I should work on it
- This came up in a sad/funny context in a post about a sovcit telling someone to put all zeroes on their TD1 forms for the employer. This isn't actually harmful to anyone but the taxpayer. Let me explain.

View full threadSo if you put zeroes on your TD1, what happens from that is the employer calculates your withholding code as a zero. This means the maximum amount of income tax for the amount you are paid, gets deducted and remitted from your paycheque. And the employer files the form away if anyone ever needs it.
- That's all that happens. I suppose very technically it might be possible that lying on your TD1 could make you subject to a fine. But it wouldn't matter. You're telling the employer to withhold the maximum amount of tax from you; you protect them and hurt yourself.
- A TD1 (one provincial; one federal) is a form your employer gives you both of when you start (and often once a year thereafter) that they use to calculate your tax withholding code, which the tax tables use to determine how much tax your employer withholds and remits from your cheque.
- One way, if you were trying to signal your core constituency that you're not gonna stop the raging housing market, would be to put Gregor Robertson in charge of building enough housing and also say we're gonna be hands off with our ministers. I'm just saying!
- I understand the Mark Carney is smart, but sometimes smart people make terrible decisions. I don't think he's playing 4D chess by choosing Robertson as housing minister. I think he's made a terrible decision that he should correct immediately.
- If he's smart the likeliest explanation is just that he thinks it's funny, which it is.
- I'm willing to grant Carney is smart; since he's also the man who inflated this housing market more than any other man, forgive me but I think he thinks it's funny to make a housing plan and ask Gregor Robertson to go deliver it, like sitting in the top row of Scotiabank yelling for me to stop 88
