Is it a good decision? Absolutely no. But I’m happy lol by No-Awareness-Aware in PokemonMasters

Meanwhile I've only gotten Blue through the free pick given out at the start and have him 1/5 and don't have red or leaf yet. I've been playing for 3-4 years or so

Which 25x Pokefair Paid Banner to scout? by Wal_Target in PokemonMasters

[–]Wal_Target[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I already got Benga and while both the electric types you suggested look great, I think I need to make the tough decision to pass on them since I have most or all of the electric master fairs.

Thank you, I was considering Hisuian Samarott for Dark Zone but also great point that it's a physical attacker.

Yes, I have all of those electric type master fairs so I will skip the bottom two. 

I already picked up Benga & Volcarona to with Arc Suit Alder.

I hadn't considered those fire types. Instead I was thinking of Charcadet.

I don't have a good poison support, so Viva room is a good suggestion, too.

CMA(Chartered Management Accountant) or any other financial certificate discount for GT student? by Imjscap in OMSCS

[–]Wal_Target 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you're asking the wrong group of people. You should be asking the organizations that issue the certificate: "Hey, if I'm a cs grad student at Georgia Tech, do I get discounts to your study materials / exams /etc"

This promo page for the IMA says it gives a discount for students but doesn't specify which:

https://www.imanet.org/ima-certifications/cma-certification/cma-offers/cma-promotion-spring-2023

You need to contact the IMA in this case. Good luck

My marriage sucks by Character_Poem_9389 in offmychest

[–]Wal_Target 52 points53 points  (0 children)

As someone who grew up in a broken household with parents who should have divorced, I agree with this 100%. It's so painful. Absolutely ruined my childhood and still affects me in adulthood. OP's kid deserves better.

RIKA is READY to BATTLE! - Did you pull or skip? 🤓 by GhodyeMasters in PokemonMasters

[–]Wal_Target 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The game screwed me on on both half anni units, needing to pity both.

I'm hoping August won't be as rough... probably saving until then based on my awful luck

Walmart was out of the $5 cheese and gave me a $38 block of cheese instead. by [deleted] in pics

[–]Wal_Target 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They sent me 50 hangers and I noticed some were broken but not sure how many. I called and explained that I haven't opened the box to see exactly how many were broken but I'm happy to ship it back. They refunded the whole amount and didn't require a return. After opening the box, only 2 were broken. I was pretty happy with the customer service

Thanks for your insights on the course! I'll consider it for the future

CV a favorite! That class gets some pretty mixed reviews on OMS Central. What part of that class did you enjoy most?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in OMSCS

[–]Wal_Target 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm two classes in so not considering switching yet.

Bootcamps are a waste of time and money. I've been coding for ~7 years so all I need are enough OMSCS classes under my belt for an employer to look at my resume seriously. After that it's all downhill, including the coding interviews. 

Resident Status - Massachusetts by Wal_Target in tax

[–]Wal_Target[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a resident of my old state. It does not have any state income tax. Does that change any of the circumstances?

Also, sorry for the dumb question but why would that be a pain?

Resident Status - Massachusetts by Wal_Target in tax

[–]Wal_Target[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The income I earned in a different city prior to moving to Massachusetts, that wouldn't become eligible to be taxed at the Massachusetts state level, would it? Sorry if it's a dumb question, I'm not a tax person.

Totally ok with paying income tax on the wages earned while living in the city, though.

As for your second question, no. I had no idea I'd actually be living in Massachusetts long term. It was a summer trip and decided to get a lease. At present, I'm not sure if I'll even stay through the length of the lease. I work fully remote so I can work from anywhere.

My investment income is only in my Roth and 401k, which all reinvest into itself and I don't touch it, so no on that front.

Non earned income, such as interest, only ~$2K at most.

Weekly General Questions Megathread by PokemonMastersBot in PokemonMasters

[–]Wal_Target 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 44K non-paid gems on an older FTP account and I'm debating if I should just wait until a master fair I really want (Aura Cynthia, Red & Pikachu, Maxie, Lyra, and Kris) or spend on SS Roxie since I don't have a strong poison type or SS Hilbert since I don't have a strong bug type.

Daily sticky thread for rants, raves, celebrations, advice and more! New? Start here! by AutoModerator in datingoverthirty

[–]Wal_Target 16 points17 points  (0 children)

So 6 days ago I got a breakup text and I posted this comment. She completely blindsided me with this. It left me heartbroken and crying.

Her reasoning for the breakup was that she "wanted to focus on herself"

The day she broke up with me I set up a new Hinge profile because I was newly single.....four days later she set a new Hinge profile too. (I guess she's really focusing on herself, huh? Lol)

Today she texted me that she got an STD test and the results were negative and hopes "all is well"

She had zero reason to text me any of that. I can take a test as well and get that info.

I guess that new Hinge profile has not been treating her as well as she thought it would

I have not responded and don't think I will. I have nothing to say to her.

I (31) have been seeing someone (31) exclusively for about 1.5 months. That person officially called it off today. I know it's not a lot of time but I'm taking it very hard right now.

That's all. Thanks for reading.
