I've never prepared my own tax return because I find the process incomprehensible.

Atrocities, repeat after me: 'I am not a klingon. I am perfectly sane. I am a mouse and eat cheese.'

You mean I should go to H&R Block then?

I'm not sure if I'd want to trust a Ferengi with any of my financial matters...

What incredibly perfect timing! I just finished my T1 General (Canada, eh!) and still have a lot of "mad" left over. Not gonna play any PBW turns till tomorrow 'cuz I might declare war on everybody! ... including a few of my own unruly colonies.

I don't know how many times I've stopped a roommate from going to some tax place.

"Hold on, what have you got there. W2s and... nothing else. Ookaay, sit down. We've got you a 1040EZ and the direction. No, we're going to do these. It's not going to be that hard, it won't take as long as driving to the mall, and next year you can do them yourself."

Of course, this is my first year as a homeowner and landlord, so I'll be having a professional look into it. Next time it'll jsut be me, of course.

But really, if all you've got to deal with is a W2 and a 1040EZ (assuming you're in the U.S., which Kamog might not be, I don't recall), then there's little reason not to tackle it yourself.
