Apr. 10th, 2006 02:42 amTurboTax informs me that I started a business last year.
This is news to me.
Apparently working as a software consultant and getting a 1099-MISC counts as starting a business.
Somehow I expected that once the IRS started getting reports of payments to a previously unknown consultant, they'd generate a letter. Something like "Hi! We see you've started a business. Please make a point of stopping by your local tax office to fill out the appropriate forms and get fitted for the anal raping device of our choice![1]
I think I'm going to owe a lot of money to the Feds, at very least. Ouch.
[1] This is opposed to other commonly found anal raping devices[2], such as those found in prisons (large men named Earl or Bubba), police stations (broomsticks), or on the Internet (Galliano bottles in various painful configurations).
[2] Beware: none of the examples are mind-safe, though the last one (unlike all the others) is funny.
