Strippers and Vuitton bags! I may try to spend the night in the Superdome as well!

I'm almost willing to wager my check that all the idiots will blow theirs within 48 hours, and the smart people will either put it in savings or toward a bill. Economic stimulus my balls.

I think I'll take my check and enter the World Series of Dice.

I'm going to buy 300 cups of coffee.

Er, well, 600. At any rate, I worked last year, and I (well, my dad) will be paying taxes, so do I get anything or not?

You won't get a check, since you're still a dependent. But if that's the case your parents will get a check for having you as a dependent. Whether they give it to your worthless ass is up to them, though.

Thanks, fucker.

No problem. WuTang is for the babies.

Actually getting all of this'll help me out a bit. I'll get this $600, I'm getting $1,100 back in taxes, and I'll be getting my clothing allowance which is gonna be around $700. I'll have to wait on the $600 but that's fine. I'll use the rest to pay off credit cards or maybe buy furniture for my pad.

So do only people who make less than $75,000 a year get this? In that case, we're out . . . oh well, I would've liked free money (at least I'll get a regular tax rebate).

Well, I'll blow $400-$500 of mine in a matter of minutes, hopefully that doesn't make me an idiot. I'll put the rest in my checking account to save or pay on a credit card.

I think if your parents make less than $130,000 or somewhere there abouts, they will qualify; and like Cappy said, they will get 300 for your ass, and any other siblings of yours that they still claim.

After you reach a certain income it becomes less and less. I believe the cutoff is either $200,000 or $250,000. After that point you recieve no check at all.

What will the Canadian members do with their cheques ?

They'll likely buy America since their dollar is stronger than ours.

Okay, then. I just saw how this was passed in the House but it's still in the senate. Hopefully it goes through.

If your government decides to send us "checks", we'll use them to buy domestic beer and donuts with. Duh.

Found out that the 80 GB PS3 is the only one that is backwards compatible with the earlier PS games so I will definitely be springing for that model; a cool $500. I did find out that I am getting all of my Federal and State taxes back too, which is over 1g, so I'm stoked about that too.
