Pure Comedy: A$$hole Pays $137 Ticket With 137 $1 Dollar Origami Pigs!

If you thought the Samsung nickel-payment to Apple was funny wait til you get a load of THIS! Man Pays $137 Traffic Ticket With Pig-Shaped Origami $1 Dollar Bills Here’s a guy who really wanted to stick it to the man. A video uploaded to YouTube on Tuesday shows a man paying for a $137 traffic ticket with 137 painstakingly folded origami pigs. The man, who goes by the apt YouTube moniker “Bacon Moose,” explains his actions in the video description: I got this ticket in a town where the cops (and absurd redlight cameras) are pretty much a money trap and that’s it. I decided to pay in an appropriate manner — 137 origami pig $1 bills, put in a pair of dozen-donut dunkin donut boxes. The $1 piggies took around six hours to prepare. But “Bacon Moose” said he believes it was well worth it. “[I] paid in style,” he said. As might be expected, the cashier at the police station was not too happy at the boxed surprise. “What’s that?” the cashier asks, nonplussed. “I am not going to take them like that. The way that you have it folded…I’m not going to sit here and unfold all of that.” After a bit of awkward back-and-forth, the man is finally asked by a police officer to unfold all the dollar bills. Take a look at the pictures below and the hilarious real-life video of “Bacon Moose” bringing the payment to the police station on the flipside. This guy is the isht! LMAO!! Images via Imgur Source

The Side-eye: Money Mitt Defines Average American Income As $200K -$250K

Mitt Romney Defines Middle Class Income As $250K And Below Must be nice to live in “Mitt world” where working class people ball out at no less than $200k annually… Mitt Romney is promising to reduce taxes on middle-income Americans. But how does he define “middle-income”? The Republican presidential nominee defined it as income of $200,000 to $250,000 a year. Romney commented during an interview broadcast Friday on ABC’s “Good Morning America.” The Census Bureau reported this week that the median household income — the midpoint for the nation — is just over $50,000. The definition of “middle income” or the “middle class” is politically charged. Both presidential candidates are fighting to win over working-class voters. President Barack Obama has defined “middle class” as income up to $250,000 a year. Obama wants to extend Bush-era tax cuts for those making less than $250,000. Romney wants to extend the tax cuts for everyone. Money Mitt just continues to make the middle class feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Source
