I am looking at suits, waistcoats and shirts as i will be going shopping soon to get some new stuff before I start my new job next month. However it REALLY annoys me that all the major high street shops (Topman, River Island, H&M, Burtons etc) seem to think that all men are the same as all their suits are "skinny fit". This discriminates against us men who spend time down the gym and aren't skinny. If I want to buy any of their suits I either need to lose weight (which I'm not prepared to do as I spent too long getting my muscles to this size) or spend a f*ck tonne of cash on some designer labels (which I refuse to do on principle).

I do have a few other options, so I know I'll be able to get some nice looking new stuff, but just needed to get that off my chest.

Hardy hardy har har. I would. It would search from about 4 minutes. And then come up with nothing. It's working now.
Congratulations. You passed your first saberforum test. You truly are "one of us".

I'll say this. For the first 2 weeks I was on saberforum my search wouldn't pull anything up. I would try all sorts of different keywords and it would keep telling me zero. I even typed in the word saber one time and it came back with 0. I've since learned to keep my mouth shut and browse browse browse. But thought I'd throw that in there.
No LordVader0418.  Don't do that.

Ask any questions that you may have.  

The search function is a very helpful tool, but if it's not working...

Always remember:  There are no such things as stupid questions; only stupid answers. Tongue

-1 for saying it.

It also feeds my rant on the Lightsaber forms and how people want to skip to the "cool" stuff without learning the basics first, but I also blame that on human nature.

Ok, this is now officially a full fledged rant/vent.  Possibly an even bigger one than my Search Function vent.

omfg. Things won't give me a break.

Within the last couple days I've used a couple different creams on the fresh skin on my finger to help ease the itch/ keep moisturised. One of them has started a fresh bout of contact dermatitis!!! I'm almost back to square bloody one!

I am so over this.

Yeah, seeing your name as the last to post in this thread always gives me an "oh no, now what?!?" moment.

Um, let me think, ah got it:  at least you have good hair!  Oh, and lightly salted popcorn.

Maybe it is a side-effect from all the secret DNA manipulation experiments being conducted on you by the alien overlords.

Wow, no kidding, that's terrible. Sounds like it's time for a hand replacement like Anakin and Luke Skywalker. Seriously though the problem has to feel a fair bit beyond "vexing".  Sorry it's being so stubborn.

How do tax returns work in the States? There are specific criteria in the UK as to whether you have to do a self-assessment tax return, otherwise the government does it for you.

Same here... kids are getting older and deductions are dropping like flies from my return - I put filing tax returns off now until the last possible day.  It's rough, man, and the struggle is real.

At the beginning of the Year we get our forms (w-2's) and from there we have till April 15th to get them done.  There is Federal Tax and State Tax (although some states do not require you to file at all).  There are many ways people get their taxes done.  There is software (Turbo Tax), Tax Centers (H&R Block), you can do it yourself if you know what your doing and many accountants offer their services.  Once done you find out whether you get a refund, get nothing or have to pay.  Got no refund last year and had to pay a little.  Sucked.

I remember hearing about W-2s in The Shawshank Redemption.

Is there any criteria as to who has to do them or is it a requirement for everyone?
