  1. Captain Weiner says:

    Hey, I got $600. Woo hoo!!!

  2. bajabajaba says:

    first. all of our money is belonging to failed economic policies. icanhasbailout?

  3. DeathWyrmNexus says:

    I haven’t seen my stimulus check yet…

  4. vervain says:

    Has anyone actually gotten one of these? Not the letter telling you you WOULD get a check, but the actual check?

    • Seth says:

      Months ago.

      • lowly grunt says:

        Well, then, where the h*ll is mine??!?!?

        Seriously, what are the criteria for receiving one of these?

        • Seth says:

          I’m pretty sure all the cool people get ours before the rest of you. Ahahaha, seriously though, I think it goes by SSN. Google stimulus check, there’s an IRS page you can go to to check the status of yours. I’d put the link here, but you know, this place eats links.

          • DeathWyrmNexus says:

            I swear you are trying to depress me. I shall do this thing that you mention and find out how screwed I am or that I have money coming. Too bad it won’t fix much.

        • ice_army says:

          It goes by ssn, but also by how you files your taxes. If you filed electronically, you’ll get it sooner. Of course, if you didn’t file, you don’t get one. You didn’t have to pay in, or even actually pay taxes(for those on welfare), but you did have to actually file.

        • JadedLilth says:

          If you had your tax return done by direct deposit, then your stimulus check has already been deposited to the same account!

          If you didn’t get a tax return…then you don’t get a stimulus check.

          If you had your return check sent by snail mail, and still haven’t been sent your check by mail…there’s most likely a problem and you need to pursue it! :P

    • lol says:

      Back in June I think.

    • DC says:

      Actually they had on the news that just in the tri-county area I live in there was over $200,000 in unclaimed stimulus check’s. I think people only have until lie the 28th of October to send in the paper work to claim them or else it will be too late.

    • Daemian says:

      I got mine the same day that I got the letter saying it would be coming

  5. Lolnathan says:

    Totally off-topic, but I just read something highly amusing. I was reading the police blotter section of my local newspaper, and evidently someone is going around stealing Obama campaign signs. But that’s not the part I find amazing… why would someone report their little lawn sign being stolen to the _police_??

    • PdeV says:

      Probably because it counts as campaign sabatoge and censorship.

    • PortlandMark says:

      They cost actual money this year: neither campaign are giving them away for free any more.

      • Lolnathan says:

        That’s sad on so many levels. Of course, not as sad as the guy two blocks down who has his fence and yard plastered in Ron Paul signs still.

        • PortlandMark says:

          Actually… I don’t hate Ron Paul. I don’t agree with more than 10% of what he says, but he seems sincere, thoughtful, and patriotic. Kind of the way Grampy McSame looked in 2000, before he ignored the attacks on his family and started sucking up to Bush II.

          • Lolnathan says:

            Well I was referring more to the fact that no Republican can win my state, let alone Ron Paul. And since he’s out of the race… well… having all those signs up seems really silly. Then again maybe its like christmas lights, just too hard to take em down. Though I do think he would have made an excellent VP choice. Would have made Thursday’s debate an embarassment for Biden, instead of it being the other way around like it is likely to be.

    • Jane St.Clair says:

      Well, one time we had this guy named Chocola (who my family called Count Chocula) running for Congress and it was a heated race because they had recently redrawn the district lines and they weren’t sure if it was going to go Democrat or Republican. Well Chocola was a republican (and friend of Bush) and a bunch of my friends stole a bunch of Chocola signs and stuck them in our coworker’s (who is so NOT a republican) yard one night. We still refer to that as the day they Chocola’d his house. Ahhhhhh, good times.

  6. YoDaddy says:

    That’s not a Stimulus check. It’s dated in ’01.

  7. mrshooah says:

    So, just a ponder here… How much was our stimulus package compared to the bail out – that’d be an interesting factoid…

  8. danyell says:

    And turns out the stimulus didn’t do shit for the economy either.

  9. Kuromisa says:

    I got mine. I’m a minor, so my parents still claim me as a dependent. As a result, I got a check for $2 from good ol’ Uncle Sam. How much did it take for them to send the thing to me, I wonder?

    I didn’t cash it. I’m going to frame the thing with a caption of “Government Waste.” Honestly, if I knew it was going to be that little, I would have just told them to keep it!

  10. el_reeker says:

    This is what happend to me (that’s why I made it!). I got my stimulus check, spent it, and a day or two ago I found out that my bank (WaMu) failed! Life imitates art…

  11. J says:

    I got mine many months ago, but I also sent my taxes in early Feb. $600 from the gubberment straight to the mortgage.

  12. Divided by zero says:

    Bank error in your favor…

  13. Dylane says:

    Help fight organized crime; the Government hates competition.

  14. Daemian says:

    I have a question. Did anyone notice the date shown on the check?

    Or is that even a date, or something else?

  15. Scriptor says:

    Its allright America. Your government is in control. Go back to sleep. Watch American Gladiators. Here is 54 Channels of it. Watch American Gladiators.

  16. I love how the government is now going to pay down the debt with tarp money. Let me know how that makes sense.
