Philosophy of Accountancy

Friend: "I spent all my Christmas money on my boyfriend's Christmas present, a Wii. "

Me: "I hope you saved some of your bonus to earn interest until you're ready for the downpayment on your house."

Friend: "Don't worry, I did. I also saved 10% by opening a target card and then I paid it off at customer service that day."

Me: "How magninimous of you for spending that much on your man."

Friend: "I don't know what "magninimous" means. Let me dictionary.com it."

Me: "That's because I made it up. You're forgetting I also have a philosophy degree - it gives me that right."

Friend: "Not necessarily, I have an accounting degree so I can make things up too."



Boo. Yah. Truth is revealed.
