Finally, we get to have a return to the Sunday Flame War Parody. This week we look at the cool nickel we’ll be getting from the Obama Economic Stimulus refund and what we plan on doing with “all” that money. Since it’s been two weeks since the previous installment, a little reminder may be in order. You should have a strong opinion on the topic, and defend it with verve and vigor… a quite a large bit of irrationality. Now, on to the topic.
What do you plan to do with your stimulus refund: Buy a pack of gum, or a small coffee?

I plan on super-gluing mine to the ground, in front of a lobbyist’s office, to see how many times the politicians bend over to pick it up. They want every nickel we have.

If I put my two cents worth in, I still won’t have enough for anything!

I plan on giving mine to a homeless drunkard to piss them off.

I won’t do anything with it: That nickel is going to cost me $25,000. Talk about a shitty return on my investment.
It’s even worse than buying Obama quarters.

Well I think Angie has got a point, but I’m going to think like a politician. I will spend another $25,000 to take me and my friends to Washington so we can personally deliver the nickelsto our senators/congressmen along with explicit instructions on how they may deposit it.

Wait a second, that isn’t a nickel being paid to you, that is a nickel you don’t have to pay to them. (actually $400, they say) Anyway, who is going to be excited about $400 they don’t have to pay if no one has a job? Anyone know where I can get those pills that give you that great tan from the inside? Being a male whitie, I’m screwed.
