Advice from Strangers

This week's guest: Bender from Futurama
Dear Bender,
My wife and I have been fighting lately over whether we should get a new
washer/dryer to replace our old one. Any suggestions?
Unwashed in Spokane
Dear Dumbass,
I can help! Just send me $10,000 and 14 cases of beer and a brand new washer
and dryer will be ... wait? Is that you Mom? And Dad? You were going to throw
out my parents? Oh the pain. Only beer will calm me down. Hey Pop, can I have
some money for beer? New appliances my ass.
Bender
Dear Bender,
I recently embezzled a small amount of money from my company. It wasn't like
I stole $1 million from them, just about $300 or so to help
pay for some root-canal work that I needed desperately. Was this still
wrong?
Potential Thief in Poughkeepsie
Dear Thief,
First off, notice I called you a thief because that's what you are. Hell, I
should know -- I take stuff that ain't mine all the time. But stealing isn't
wrong. I see it as a charitable donation that works backwards. Just the
other day, I was on the Nebula 5 planet system when I saw this crate of
Oldie Fortran Malt Liquor just sitting there, telling me to steal it. Then
again, it could've been that my sensory input was crossed with my high-frequency AM radio antenna, which was picking up the Tokyo Yankees/Chicago
Cubs World Series game. But, hell, I took the damn thing anyway.
