That was the unfortunate phrasing I used in talking with a co-worker about my (not) expected economic stimulus check. Which I'm not expecting to get because we make too much money. Which is (a) what I was trying to say in an amusing way (though not quite that amusing) and (b) the sort of "problem" I suppose it's not bad to have.
Okay, it was kind of funny.
So I guess I'll just spend some of my filthy lucre to stimulate the economy on my own. Just to do my part, mind you.
On the other hand, if you're expecting one of those checks -- here's a suggestion on what to "spend" it on. Or for a similar cause of your choice.
