dog tax

When a person posts a photo of a dog in an online community such as Dogspotting Society in order to meet the requirements that a post must be about dogs and the common interpretation that posts must feature a photo of a dog. That is, the photo provides a tax (or more, a fee) to solicit the attention and responses of the community.

Often, the photo included is not related to the request or comment made in the post.

See also cat tax which may be posted in Catspotting Society although there are no such content rules in Catspotting Society because we really cannot be bothered, please scritch behind the left ear, thanks.

Example: "I'm thinking about getting an Ibizan Hound for my next dog. Please show me all your long bois and their many elbows and tell me about them! I'm including my Shar Pei Noodle for dog tax photo of Noodle attached.

Theis Tax

Theis Tax is the way of checking the validity of a win/loss against the Houston Rockets. If the Rockets were beaten, Theis Tax would be considered if the NBA Center known as Daniel Theis was active during the game. If Theis Tax is present, the loss would no longer be valid. Theis Tax would also be included if a team loses to the Houston Rockets. If Daniel Theis is present during a Rockets win, the losing team is eligible for mockery, as they lost to the rockets even with Theis Tax

“The Rockers lost? Did you consider Theis Tax?

Asshole Tax

Asshole tax is charging someone extra purely because they’re personality sucks, and may have been rude, annoying, wasted your time, or just generally need to be fined for forcing others to endure them.

This woman was such a pain in the ass to deal with so I charged her some asshole tax and told her the price was $75 instead of $40. Bam bitches.

candy tax

A parenting trend where you purport to teach your kids about responsibility by stealing some of their candy or “levying a tax" on their trick or treat loot. The tax can be as much as one third of the candy "earned" on Halloween. The tax, which is levied mostly in jest, is meant to teach a lesson about how government works.

Let me see your bag so I can collect the candy tax.

The tall tax

The 'tall tax' refers to the many inconveniences that a tall person may encounter in their life (whether that be financially or socially).

Most tall people are at a disadvantage financially because when they are on a long journey, they will often have no choice but to pay a premium for extra legroom even though they physically cannot fit in the seat otherwise.

In social situations, if there is a crowd trying to view an event, the tall person will always have to stand at the back because all of the smaller people will complain that they can't see. This is ironic as often the tall person will also not be able to see because they are not giants

Just because I'm tall, doesn't mean that I should have to pay more to sit down. That's the tall tax for you
