Heading into the weekend

from the Stupid-but-funny.. dept

It's a beautiful Friday afternoon here in SF and a slow news day to boot. So, in the spirit of a nice day and the start of the weekend, I thought I'd post a funny article about the irony of the census that is currently taking place. Enjoy!

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    Count me........We are one.

    We, me, myself and I....are one.

    This 'people tracking' movement....every 10 years is silly. Taxes people......get it every year.
    OK, check this.... I am a single guy, living in a 'single' apartment. No pets [besides mold] and no kids [besides me] and I get ...3 short forms. That not enough, then ...due to my lack of response [it was still 1.5 weeks before duetime] they send me the LONG form. I run over to {nameremoved} to grab food and see a census lady to anser my ?s, she says 'throw them away' so....I did. Come on mr G men, I can take ya...wee. Wow, work..doh, one person here [me] and no one to help [normal]. mr-white@pacbell.net [for now]
