It was Tax Day this week in the US –  April 15th to be precise – the day when individual income tax returns are due to the federal government. Let’s hear a big ol’ ‘Booooooooooo!’ Obviously, nobody really wants to pay their taxes, at least not while big corporations get away without doing it, so someone always has an excuse to get out of it. Here are some of the best #TaxDayExcuses tweets. Just for a laugh…
