You know, I recently decided to be a better person. So, I thought, what's the quickest way to do that without actually putting in too much effort? And then it hit me - nonprofits! Yeah, you know, those organizations that make you feel like a hero just by clicking a "donate" button. I signed up for this nonprofit that helps save endangered snails. Yeah, snails! Because apparently, snails are in danger, and I can't have that on my conscience. But here's the thing, I don't even like snails. I mean, if escargot is on the menu, I'm ordering something else. Yet, there I was, saving snails like a superhero in a slimy cape.
I started getting updates on my impact, and they were like, "You saved 50 snails this month!" And I'm thinking, "Do snails even know they're being saved? Are they out there telling their snail friends, 'Thank goodness for that anonymous human who spared us from salt and gardeners!'"
So, here I am, the unsung hero of the snail world. Meanwhile, my friends are like, "Dude, why don't you volunteer at a homeless shelter or something?" But no, I'm committed to the snails. It's my own slow-paced version of philanthropy.

Can we talk about nonprofit guilt-tripping emails? You know the ones I'm talking about. They hit you with subject lines like, "Did you forget about the puppies?" And suddenly, I'm like, "Wait, there are puppies in danger? How did I miss this?" I get these emails like clockwork. They're so dramatic. It's like they're writing the script for a blockbuster movie. "The fate of the world rests on your $10 donation!" And I'm thinking, "Is Tom Cruise going to parachute in to save the day if I donate?"
But they know how to play the guilt card perfectly. They'll be like, "Last chance to be a hero." And I'm there, frantically searching for my cape. But the worst is when they send a follow-up email that's like, "We noticed you didn't open our last email. Do you not care about the polar bears anymore?"
Now, not only do I have to save the puppies, but I've also apparently abandoned the polar bears. I'm like, "Can I get a break, please? I've got snails to save, too!

So, I attended a fundraising event for a nonprofit recently. It was one of those fancy galas where everyone's dressed to impress. But let's be real, we're all there for the free food. The cause is just a bonus. They had this live auction, and they were auctioning off experiences like dinner with a celebrity or a hot air balloon ride. And there I am, hoping they'll auction off a "Dinner with a Snail Saver" experience, but no luck.
Then comes the awkward part. The auctioneer is doing his thing, and he points at me and says, "Sir, would you like to bid on this luxury vacation package?" And I'm like, "Uh, yeah, sure, why not?" Little did I know, I just bid my life savings on a trip to an exotic destination. I was expecting a weekend getaway, not an international expedition.
Now I'm stuck with a vacation I can't afford, all for the sake of looking charitable. At least the snails would be proud.

You ever notice how people become nonprofit experts overnight? Like, the moment they make a donation, suddenly they're the spokesperson for the cause. They're like, "Oh, you're not familiar with the endangered snail crisis? Let me enlighten you." I made a modest donation to a charity that helps provide clean water in developing countries. Next thing I know, I'm at brunch, and my friend is like, "Oh, you went out last night? I was busy saving lives, you know, by supporting water initiatives."
And I'm thinking, "Bro, you just clicked a button on a website. You didn't build the wells yourself." But that's the thing with nonprofits; they turn us all into humble braggarts. It's like a competition of who can save the world more casually.
Now, every time I meet someone, I'm tempted to start my introduction with, "Hi, I'm a humanitarian who also enjoys long walks on the beach." Because nothing says humility like bragging about your charitable deeds.
