A lighthearted look at other ways of taxing us.


Recommended Posts

queue tax - anyone in a queue is required to pay 1p per minute they are in the queue, special ankle metres will monitor proximity to other ankle meters and movement via GPS and inertial guidance, if you aren't moving much and you are close to another meter or a yellow line you are deemed to be queueing and the meter starts counting

 

the payment office is again in the town hall next to the eyesight office, only has one teller and the queue to pay starts at the yellow line

A tax on the misuse of apostrophes, as frequently observed on shop signs etc. One tax rate for where they are improperly omitted, double for when improperly inserted (which is more common)

 

 

Damn! I was just about to type an apostrophe tax. :hihi:

 

OK, we can have a Capital Tax, for those who Write Like This. or for those who do that instead. But most of all for those who call themselves 'i'.

Single Man Tax

 

Was discussing interior design yesterday and the talk moved to how single blokes always have bloody odd things in their homes as well as getting into bad habits when left to themselves.

 

I remember finding one of those "table football" things in a perfectly normal looking man's bedroom (civil servant, incidentally :suspect:). Someone I knew had a picture of Wayne Rooney above his bed. Thirty year old doctor. Nice :confused:.

 

So I think single men shouldn't be allowed to live on their own, and the money they would be paying on rent/mortgage will go to the Treasury.

 

The men will be put into something like boarding school dormitories where they can be punished for whatever bad habits they have that made them single in the first place. They can only move out and stop paying the Single Man Tax when they have earned the love of a good woman.

If you are going to take down my Rooney pictures then I'd prefer to pay the tax and be single!

 

:P
