COLLEGE PARK, Maryland — There’s a day in mid-April many Americans dread. It’s a day that forces them to deal with their finances.
That day is today. It’s tax day.
They already designated a lane on the main road for ppl mailng taxes tmrw. It starts .4 miles from the post office.

Ice cream aside, tax day is the annual deadline for Americans to report their income from the previous year to the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS.

Some owe money to the government.
nonsense. Complaining about taxes is every American’s birthright. It’s in the constitution. Look it up.

Twitter gives taxpayers a place to talk tax day confusion, struggles and triumphs. For that, we’re grateful.
I’m really bored so I might get drunk and do taxes.
