'ing hell.

I have a feeling I am going to owe on tax again this year.......

/rant.

[Adam]

How do you do that?

I'm going to buy something to claim on tax, this year!

Claiming a laptop isn't possible is it?

[B4TT]

Nah all good, I was a stupid fucker, I was trying using my total income and not my taxable income (some of my wage is Salary Sacrifice and tax deferred = don't pay tax on it until 3 years time) I will actually be getting a tax refund without any deductions, I sure as shit will be making deductions.. Oh and I didn't include franking credits! dismal attempt round 1... haha

[Adam]

Im still on that tucker max site.

HILARIOUS!

People started doing keg stands, which led to perhaps the defining moment of the trip. This one girl, who was ugly and a bitch (thus, didn’t have basic human rights) started doing one. Don’t ask me why I did this, because I have no idea why, but when she was upside down, legs spread apart, I punched her right in the vagina. This caused her to violently spit up the beer she was trying to consume, and fall backwards into the two people holding her up, all of them splashing to the mud.
I ran off, laughing so hysterically I couldn’t breathe. Thankfully in the alcohol-addled confusion, no one noticed who did it.

Sorry, I don't know what alot of that means hahaha.

'Dam, to put it into practice.. If I earned $1000 a year and Salary Sacrificed/tax deferred $200 a year I would pay tax on $800 this year and (assuming I didn't have another pay rise) $1200 in three years time (even though my actual earnings for that year were $1000).

[Adam]

Why do that though?

[Morgan]

I salary sacrifice 40% of my income. Paying minimal tax FTW.

[B4TT]

There are benefits to it 'Dam.

[Adam]

but you eventually pay the tax, right? So its kinda like being in debt to the tax office?

[B4TT]

Just noticed your q in regards to a laptop. You work with computers for work. Buy one and claim it be Internet and some electricity for the times you work at home

Dam, my sal sac is direct into shares, so I save on brokerage fees, and they pay dividends to me throughout the year and they have the chance of going up in value.... So it is offering me working capital tax free up front. In the end theoretically I should come out in front at the end for doing this. Also when they go up in value I only have to pay tax on the original amount... Unless I sell them which would trigger a capital gains event an I would pay tax on the profit. But all in all it is a good savings account for me.

So i'm thinking now that i'm going to run the whole S13 subframe in my KE70. A few blokes have done it, and they reckon that they have had some suspension geometry issues (mainly bump steer and caster adjustmnt) but I reckong I can negate that by running shorter LCAs and not stupid amounts of camber.

The only problem, is that the front track will increase by around 146mm from what I can tell. Which means im going to need to MAYBE run an R31 rear diff, that also has an increased track, to suit.

It will sit epically though. Dat stance.

NO MATTER HOW NICELY OR FREQUENTLY I ASK HER TO PICK UP HER CRAP OFF THE FLOOR, IT NEVER CHANGES




Or use the basin as a table

Or rinse the crap off her plate if she's finished with it

Or put stuff back where she found it

Or collapse boxes so everything fits in the bins




...but how good are bewbs?

Seriously... your penis is on the wrong side.

[Morgan]

Nah man my penis is all good.

http://www.kogan.com...explorer-7-tax/ This is fantastic. I just hope its IE7 and below - because IE7 isn't really a problem for developers (not for me anyway), IE6 from people persisting with the default XP browser is a problem on occasion. 8 we have to deal with because its the highest build supported by XP, but its not terrible to work with.

Unrelated but I donated my old turtle tower (2x 3ft tanks on a timber tower) to the AFT forum, because I don't need the $50 that it's probably worth... A bloke is coming to get it sometime soon. I have a new 5x2x2 tank that is almost complete pretty much where my pocket money has been going the last few weeks.

[Adam]

Sounds cool. Chucks some pics up!

[Brett]

Fap fap fap.

Fuckdiddly that's purdy.

This is also cool, but for completely different reasons.

Still under construction but this is how it was this afternoon. Had them for 7 years now, they are 15cm diameter at the shell, both male. Got plants and feeder fish to add to it yet, and probably a tree root or something to get it looking more natural.

I also bought this the other day. Plain body WRC 1:43, I just liked how it looked baws-like without the livery.

That's so awesome! I love aquariums. But I can't keep shit alive haha.

[Harry88]

Evening all

Turtles are very easy, once they mature you only have to feed them one or two times a week and I only clean the tanks once every few months when the filtration is right. It is really all in the setup. However unlike fish they are a lifetime pet, they can live for 50 odd years in captivity. They need real sunlight every now and then (they have special lighting in the tank) so I take them out the back on the grass while having a drink or two

I used to keep fish but got over that, even when the setup is perfect you still randomly lose fish, and they are damn expensive to buy if you get good ones. I prefer buying fish as food for these guys lol.
