When my water heater broke a month ago I came to reddit to see if going without a water heater for a bit is doable. After 1 month, I gotta say it is. At first it is kinda funny but a few weeks go by and really it's tough to turn the water on. I've gone without a lot of appliances... fridge for 7+months microwaves for a decade no TV no dinning room table... I think water heaters might be the greatest invention. If you gotta go without you can do it it's kinda hell or if you just like to f around do it but I wouldn't really recommend it in general.

They sent me a $5000 bill for a year I made $42k and I had already had $1200 withheld for the year... how can the estimate be so bad? $6200 on $42k income is over 15%!

I explained that my mortgage was already past due 10 days, my water heater is broken, I couldn't buy groceries and asked for an emergency release that was denied!

​

​

Today after reviewing my tax filing they said they released my money. But of course my bank account is still $0 and the bank says they haven't heard from the state 7 hours later and my money has already been gone 7 days!

Wisconsin does not have a taxpayer advocacy group. MN does, other states do, and the IRS has one. We could really use one. I'm pretty ok with my experience I even think it's a little funny but damn I would feel really bad if I heard of some elders or parents with kids at home who had to deal with the same experience.

Enjoy a hotdog a water and learn about the different volunteer opportunities, different programs (hot sauce making coming up this summer), and about the community garden.

Dollar wise what am I looking at here. Google AI says around $500. I need a rust free project car to keep me busy, thinking Southern MO or KS to La Crosse WI.

How about we close the bars at 10pm and leave the parks open till 2?
