I’d like to take this moment to thank Our President for this wonderful tax cut. I’ll use my tax break to buy a pack of smokes and a bottle of cheap lube since we are, of course, getting fucked over and might as well have a smoke when he’s done with us.
Do you make enough to afford both a pack of smokes and a bottle of cheap lube with your tax break? You may be underestimating the cost of lube.
Okay, I was thinking baby oil.
Disclaimer: Never, ever use baby oil as sexual lubrication. Bad for condoms, bad for vaginas.
Cringe. No petroleum-based penetration for me. If you could kick the nick, you could afford AstroGlide.
If I made $10Gs more annually, I could afford a bottle of Millenium ID.
Then they’d just accuse you of spending your inadequate earnings on frivolous personal comforts like safer, more pleasureable sex.

Sex for pleasure is a right reserved to Party members (who have earned it by being richer). Or, wait, am I mixing up my Calvinist theology with my Ingsoc? I can never keep those two straight. Which one involved telling all my neighbor’s sins to the local authorities?
Always go waterbased.

It’s so fucking petty in relation to how much they “earn”, why do they even bother?
Martha Stewart fucked up her pretty little life to get over just a tad more by avoiding a $60,000 loss. Dennis Kozlowski charged nickle-and-dime shit to Tyco like it was his personal checking account. Either they get off on getting over, or the sense of entitlement is so intoxicating.
[...] And to put the reality of the current taxation situation into a similar matephorical basis, imagine that you had a restaurant that was divided into one section for people who earned less than $100,000 per year, in which all you could order was gruel, which represents the current social services (or lack thereof) of our great Majority Party’s government, and the other section was for people who got more than $100,00 per year, which served only the finest foods on the planet and the more a customer earned the less they paid for the food.
