At Least It’s Not A Barking Spider

A Dutch family is being taxed for a barking doorbell:

”Last year it was a huge effort to convince the inspector that we didn’t have a dog, and now it’s happened again,” Gerrit Bruintjes was quoted as saying by RTL Nieuws.

In the Netherlands, dog owners are required to pay the ”hondenbelasting,” an infamous annual tax that is frequently evaded.

Actually, I think that “barkingspider” would be a great blog name. Or as a plural, a band name.
