Bad equations

$AMOUNT_OF_PAYCHECK - $COST_OF_CAR_REPAIR <= 0(The car has about 95k miles on it - most of what's being repaired is stuff that you'd expect to last about that long. Still. Ouch.)
More funny than the last posting

Recently we got an automated dunning notice from E-Z Pass, who have the electronic gizmos on the NJ Turnpike.According to them we went through a toll booth without paying. And look there's a picture of the ass end of our car. Yeah, so what. First of all, they're wrong. We paid. Cash, but we did pay all the tolls. Second, a picture of my car doesn't prove jack. I'm happy to admit I drove that road on that day but a picture doesn't mean anything. Third, you're in NJ. I don't have your system. You can do exactly... what?
My response was a pithy "Sod off".
Pygment, however, decided the form should be filled out, contesting the charge. She first attempted to hand it to me. I explained that my response was going to be "Sod off" and if she wanted the form sent back with something else, she'd need to write it.
So she started trying to figure out how to tell them we don't agree with their assertion.
Her: "I can't figure out how to..."
Me: "S - o - d ..."
