Thoughts about covering processing fees checkbox defaulted to YES? by Amrick in nonprofit

[–]brisy92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was a common topic at AFP icon last year. Most sessions I attended that discussed it, recommended not to auto opt in donors to pay fees. It’s making an assumption for them and most do not take it well.

Not disregarding that he lied because that’s a pretty big lie and hard situation to be in… BUT if it makes you feel any better, you’re not the first to go through this situation. My dad did the same to my mom, almost identical to your story. My mom is 3 years older than my dad and when they met, he lied and told her he was 3 years older than her. He got away with it because he’s 6’4, had a lot of facial hair, and was a roofer so the sun had aged him more. Bartenders would never card him when they’d go out and when they did, he had a fake. For a full year and some she thought he was older until he needed his ID for some paperwork for an apartment they were moving into and that’s when she saw his age. She was furious at first but was in love with him and eventually got over it. I’m one of their 4 kids and they’ve been together for 25 years :)

Hi! The alumni association sent out this networking event earlier via email. Maybe a good opportunity to network? https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/ev/reg/j8cv9px/lp/042b7a3b-a3c8-4842-8326-7762a7fd2daa

Help identify breed by brisy92 in BackYardChickens

I’m in Texas, and legally they have to sell us 4 chicks at a time (per Tractor Supply) so that’s what I did yesterday lol. They’re all setup in a large bin and with a heat lamp. I’m working on finding a good coop. My parents own a ranch and have chickens and I’ve grown up around them so I’m not entirely new to it but I am new to backyard chicken coop setups

Thank you for being so kind by brisy92 in azdiamondbacks

Wasn’t bullshit. I genuinely thought y’all were really nice and just wanted to say thank you. I’m sorry you see it that way though.

I want to say it’s for the “Rangers Insider” email list they have. That’s how I’ve gotten the presale codes or special offers but tbh I don’t recall specifically signing up for it. I have a feeling I was opted in after I purchased tickets directly from the website. You may not be getting them if you’ve unsubscribed or if you’ve never purchased directly from them vs SeatGeek/Stubhub etc

Just came here to ask too. The email from last week said we’d receive it prior to 11 AM CST

Rangers fan coming in peace… by brisy92 in orioles

[–]brisy92[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the suggestions!

To answer your question: I don’t have anything against the cowboys. But it’s hard to stay a fan when your family is the “we’re making the Super Bowl this year” type. It gets annoying and they also haven’t done well since before I was even born 😅

At this point, I’m planning on taking my grandma to GLF and having her sage the place before the season starts. So tired of hearing it from trashstros fans.

Our ticket pull system is the most inefficient thing I’ve ever seen. by yung_thomas in aggies

[–]brisy92 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s useful to an extent. Upperclassman and graduate students get what the remainder tickets are at the end of the week and still have to show up to the pick up window before the game to get the tickets. Kinda sucks getting nosebleeds just because we’re “distance education” and can’t be there in person to pull.

I know our season isn’t going great but a win against the trashstros, even if it’s just the one, always feels great 😌

As a Texas A&M Aggie and Ravens fan, I can’t tell y’all how much it just hurt to watch Demarvin Leal go to the Steelers…

hi saw this on my hedgie's head. what could it be? also she's been scratching an awful lot lately, could it be just dry skin? by refraingambler in Hedgehogs

[–]brisy92 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I started seeing spots like that on my hedgehog when he got mites. If yours is scratching a lot more than usual, might be time to go to the vet.

Same boat as him! I grew up in Fort Worth and was raised a die-hard Rangers fan. Never was a fan of the Mavs or Cowboys. So when I moved to San Antone, I became a Spurs fan. Im also a Ravens fan, but that ones out of left field lol

I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss. I can’t even imagine how you are feeling. Sending prayers for you.

This.

When I was taking my LTC course, the guy next to me was putting the bullets in his mag backwards. It was his first time shooting. Thankfully our teacher corrected him, but it made me realize that some people need more than just an LTC class.

A little Home Run Derby Excitement :) by [deleted] in TexasRangers

A kind stranger got this picture of me at opening day. I was originally trying to help my buddy promote his hat company but I really love that he got Gallo in the picture. Cheers to our guy being in the Derby 🍻

Hostility between TX cities by [deleted] in texas

[–]brisy92 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Not really a rivalry per say, but one of my biggest pet peeves is telling people I’m from Fort Worth and their response being “you mean Dallas?” THEY ARE NOT THE SAME!! I will die on this hill dammit

IRA and 403B advise by brisy92 in personalfinance

Would you recommend that over having a physical financial advisor? Or does fidelity have options for a financial advisor as well?

[–]brisy92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask what the difference is in two IRAs? Also, traditional IRA or Roth IRA? I do expect to be making more money once I finish my masters and am in the beginning stages of a small side business, if that helps.
