I suppose that mathematically one could say I'm depositing a bill when I pay it, as I'm deducting the value of the bill from my bank account, which is the same as adding the negative of it. Since they're asking me to pay it, it's kind of negative money.

But no, then you'd be a pedantic idiot and would have said nothing of value.

That's why I draw big black vertical bars on the sides of my bills before I deposit them. Mathematically, that makes them deposit the absolute value instead of the negative asset.
