“One of the main reasons people buy homes is that they get to deduct the interest”

It was not even in my top ten reasons for buying my house

“Be careful in community property states! Everybody I went to law school with who was married got divorced before they graduated because even your degree is considered community property” sweet humble brag you went to law school too wow

What a Laffer!

I’d be trolling the shit out of him. Question one, would be has it gone up in real dollars or just nominal dollars?

This one has even more troll potential that the last one.

Shats at Bill Clinton “He moved it (meal expense deduction) down to 50% now it’s even less”

Meal expense deduction totally never been abused or anything.

My CPA uncle would take the whole family out to dinner, say the word taxes, and write the whole thing off.

If you aren’t dunking on this idiot constantly and letting him indoctrinate probably hundreds of students a year with no push back, thousands and thousands on long term, you’re fucking up big time. I don’t care how much of an introvert you are.

Bring receipts and sources for when he tries to refute it.

It’s easy for us to armchair QB this thing, but if this idiot is responsible for grades, I can understand why someone might just put their head down and not rock the boat.

This is more than a little overdramatic, but if JM wants to go for it sure.

My personal hell is being in some class where a student keeps getting into it with the teacher.

I think it 100% depends on execution.

It normally probably turns out the way you suggest, but Melfi’s cases has some serious potential for hilarity.

Well I suppose this is technically true, as some level of execution would make it worth it. But I’m not going to class to watch a dick measuring contest between a student and prof.

The proper strategy is well timed one liners. Any extended back and forth is a disaster.

It’s over, it was on Zoom and we were muted so I couldn’t go in but I would have no problem doing it, I have before, but yeah it’s also a class full of adult grad students who all have full time jerbs like me and are just slogging through this so we can sit for the CPA exam so we just want to be done with it asap for the most part

He kinda mailed in the last ten minutes or so, he was literally just reading chapter sub-headings aloud and then moving on. It reminded me of going on vacation as a kid and my mom reading billboards aloud in the car and driving my dad insane
