I just got my check finally, but it's not going to porn...

An independent market-research firm, AIMRCo (Adult Internet Market Research Company), has discovered that many websites focused on adult or erotic material have experienced an upswing in sales in the recent weeks since checks have appeared in millions of Americans' mailboxes across the country.

 

According to Kirk Mishkin, Head Research Consultant for AIMRCo, "Many of the sites we surveyed have reported 20-30% growth in membership rates since mid-May when the checks were first sent out, and typically the summer is a slow period for this market."

 

Jillian Fox, spokeswoman for LSGmodels.com, one of the sites reporting figures to AIMRCo, added, "In a June 15, 2008 survey to our members, thirty two percent of respondents referenced the recent stimulus package as part of their decision to either become a new member, or renew an existing membership."

Porn beats guitars, apparently.

Here's my stimulus check:

 

Is that a Gibson or Epiphone?

It's the Gibson SG special.  

It was a good deal, only like $550 new!  It was definitely worth it

My check is going towards gas :(

 

I've been saving for an upright bass though. 

 

Upright bass is my favorite instrument.  So sexy.  Hope you get your hands on one. 

 

I just came across a new nylon aucustic/electric.  My friend traded my bass for it, without me knowing, but I totally scored the better end of the deal.

 

The rebate check went to gas too.  400 bucks for the passed 8 years...what a slap in the face.

Bills, I paid fucking bills with my stimulus.

just checked and mine's being issued next week. Now, after finding out i'll have to pay $400 for an iPhone instead of the advertised $199, I'll probably be using my check to pay for that.

I just can't bring myself to pay $400 for a fucking phone.

What's the deal with this stimulus stuff?

 

Can I get one?

No, Americans only.

 

I'll give you half of mine.

 

 

I wish I got a damn stimulus cheque... I just bought a fridge

NO STIMULI FOR YOU!

At least you get to enjoy free healthcare.
