Unfortunately, after attending engineering, masters and law school I have had far too many encounters with the type of indivdiual that you are; the unlikeable know-it-all who never fails to attempt to assert their percieved knowledge over the percieved ignorance of the unwashed masses.
Let a fella complain about his taxes if he wants.

If you didn't want a response why post on an internet website? You are making fun of me for being a geek but at least i know what i am in for. You go and post something that is ######ed and backward - essentially complaining about an extra few dollars in taxes you now owe thanks to your (unfortunate?) rise in home values that have likely left you with an additional $200k-$500 in equity and do so based on flawed logic and we are supposed to 'just let a guy complain'? Guess what, when you do something so unbelievably insulting to all of us without such good fortune you are going to get called on it. If you want to complain, go beak off to your little elitist friends and leave us alone then.
Second, if you have a Law degree and a Masters AND a B.Eng and whatever else behind your name what the hell are you doing here looking for validation? IS it because when you complain like this with your own educated friends they too point out the error in your logic? Maybe you just like finding people you see as below you to talk down to?
What kind of clown has ~8 years of education (more?), is likely looking at at LEAST $120k in yearly earnings (and that is if he is a moron) with earning potential basically unlimited, living in a home that has gained hundreds of thousands in value for him, and looking at a life of relative ease and luxury then comes on an internet forum and complains about $40 in extra taxes based on flawed logic - and THEN gets upset when someone points out the lack of validity of his complaint?! Do you really need that outlet? Do you REALLY need us here for you? Do you really need our ear and our pity?

EDIT: I was wondering why you insisted on coming across like such a wanker, and then I remembered! You're that anti-pet insurance/good christian guy I was telling my friends about a few weeks ago. Yowza.

Funny you would bring that up, since i was railing against pets (out of boredom) in much the same way you are now doing so against taxes. (Although i didn't complain when people disagreed with me; that is what makes this place interesting.) I am certainly not Christian (good reading comprehension though!) and i certainly do not take anything here as seriously as you*... except maybe what line Yelle plays on...
(You seem to think that because i am bored at work and come here to post, and then spend the time to back what i post up, it means i take it seriously. But i am WELL aware of the fact this is just the internet, and that this is not reality. I would never go spouting off about what degrees i have, telling people what find of person they are because of what they post or go on about how i make fun of people on here with my friends in the 'real world' - because i know EVERYTHING here has to be taken with a grain of salt and is just a small window into the world.)
It seems you want to be the know-it-all as much as i do > You just ****ed up right off the bat and now you are on the defensive. Why should we sit here and 'just let you vent' when you are venting about something that doesn't make sense?
"Oh boo-hoo, i just won the lottery but now i am earning SOOOOoooo much interest on my winnings that the government wants more taxes then they got before!! Stupid government - all they do is raise taxes!! boo hoo hoo!!!"
