First, you need a clean kitchen.

Now, let's start cooking! How about... a SMÖRGÅSTÅRTA!

Or maybe... SWEDISH MEATBALLS!

And now, some letters from the viewers. Then, cookies.

Robos A Go Go

Two young girls in a West Germans street chat with their grandparents in the window of their home in the Eastern sector, separated only by a barbed wire barricade. It was a common occurrence for families, who had once only lived on the opposite side of the street from one another, to become separated by the ever growing Berlin Wall.

Heh. The Apple and Microsoft organization charts are spot on.

hmmm

my older sister is talking about opening a restaurant

she is really bad with math, paperwork, and appointments (licensure and such)

she's a trained chef and she already has all the appropriate food handling certs required by the city

so i gave her some general info on who she has to talk to next for the applicable licenses, and now she's talking about having me handle the paperwork side?

several misc. questions

1) i'm fully aware small businesses fail often, and i am 100% not going to contribute financially to this or open a line of credit. my sister is the one who's talking about loans and such.

2) what are the implications for me, tax wise? i am willing to help her on the numbers side for free because she is my sister and owning a restaurant is her dream. however, if it's at the point where i'm legitimately helping her to run a successful small business, and i'm acquiring financial recompense, what do i do? do i need to fill out a w4 before doing anything for her?

any help would be appreciated, noting that this is in the very early stages

The big thing they're known for is a database by the same name. Well, and getting involved in lawsuits (I'd say only about half the time as the defendant). A lot. The org chart is about right for them too...

Did they put up a fight before you conquered them, Jacob?

stevemarks44

I was supposed to have a date tonight but I was up all last night feeling terrible and didn't sleep till 7. But at like 3 I felt okay but was still fucking exhausted from not getting more than 3 hours sleep. Now is when we were supposed to meet for dinner and she was super understanding but because I'm not really feeling under the weather anymore I feel like a shithead

Sell her on opening a food trailer instead.

Well at least now you know that she's flexible about stuff like that.

First off, I am not a tax attorney, so ... you ask the internet, you take your chances. That said, I'm fairly sure all the IRS wants you to do is report the income and pay tax on it. There may be some tax breaks involved because its a small business, but if you're just operating as an employee or consultant then it should be just like handling your tax burden for those (I think consulting might be a different form, but don't quote me on that). Best bet is to contact a professional though.

So Pony and I were playing Saints Row and we had to go get respect and he stopped to go AFK in a neighborhood and I shot an old lady because I didn't like her cardigan and then I shot a lady who I think was a prostitute because of her attire and then some gang members came to fight me and for a while I was just holding off waves and waves of cops and gang members while protecting Pony's guy and then the helicopters came so I panicked and ran and left him for dead I'm so sorry I'm so so sorry

Listen, don't apologize.

"can't wait to get five guys in my mouth" etc

Jacobkosh

Cass, how are things

also if I could have five guys every night I totally would. it would be messy and a lot of protein to take in but I could make it work.

Dread Pirate Arbuthnot

Also at one point I was like "CAN I STOMP THAT ACTIVIST?"

This game is not meant for nice people

stevemarks44

Yeah, we talked a lot of today via text and she was like "just feel better!" I just hate feeling like I lied or something when I didn't.

Also Cass go because of orgy jokes but also because of the burgers.

This is one of those questions where the social norm is to answer like 'oh things are great' but because of our friendship and my bitching in chat I don't know if you are inquiring about deeper matters. You should clarify this in a PM because I'm going out to dinner with Choco.

Leo flipped his little doggy bed over tonight and started dry humping it. I guess it's time to make the very special vet appointment.

syrdon i appreciate the advice but i can't afford to consult a professional (right now, anyway). i'll see if i can swing it before the business plan develops too far.

Good morning chat

Today is the last open house showing for my house before the auction on Saturday

my family is a little tense

Jacobkosh

chu if you're just going to be an employee and your name isn't on any of like, the loan forms or liens then I think you can literally just fill out the short form come next april. I don't think it's any more complicated than that.

Is Vari around?

Or any of the other Chaos in the Old World players?

Tarr is here and excited about Chaos because I spent all day talking about it but we can't play with two people so we should try to play on VASSAL if we can get 4 people together.
