I wouldn’t associate the IRS with humor, but having a Frivolous Returns department is pretty damn funny.

My IRS acquaintance says a frivolous filing will cost them 5K!

[-] magnetosphere@fedia.io 22 points 5 months ago

That’s even funnier!

Dear Sir/Madam

We wrote to you upon receipt of your tax return informing you that it had been passed to our Frivolous Returns department for further examination. That examination is now complete.

It is with regret that we have to inform you that you are clown shoes. We think it is possible that the doctor may have mistakenly certified a placenta in your case.

As unlikely as it seems that you are actually earning a taxable income you should probably pass this matter over to a competent adult to help you with the self-assessment process.

Clown shoes, bud.

Someone I know works for the IRS and apparently the frivolous filing penalty is 5000 dollars, LOL sovcit.

Much as I find it difficult to sympathise with bureaucracies, can't help but feel the Frivolous Returns dept. might be the alter-ego of the 'Now, Don't Be A Cunt' department.

Also acceptable is frivolous reply form B-4a:

You're nuts to butts with a wall, bud. Seriously, just zonked out of it, and how.

Fucking pay up, looney toons.

Excuse me, but we’re routing to the Waste of Time dept.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

The "you're madder than a hatter" department.
