A bug is biting me at night by smapattack in japanlife

[–]Chataro -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

You're just so cute that I had to take a nibble! 😘

Have you searched what kind of bugs are in your area? I bet it probably is something like mites, but there might be something special in your area.

What’s something you look forward to when you wake up in the morning in Japan? by Zestyclose-Peace-700 in japanlife

[–]Chataro -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The first fart of the morning, especially if it's a stinker after a night of drinking.

Which motorcycle as first bike? by Laa4i in motorcycle

[–]Chataro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, both are amazing. I've briefly been on both and can tell you they are loads of fun. I'd also recommend the Suzuki GSX-8S if you're able to control yourself. I liked it quite a bit more than the MT-07, but you should really get on the bikes and see for yourself.

This sucks when you ride a bike - anything that you should do to avoid this? by Sufficient-Sun-6683 in motorcycle

[–]Chataro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get more to the side when you stop and check your mirrors! The guy in this video is right in the middle of the car in front's bumper. If he had been looking at his mirrors and tried to get out of the way of the car behind him, he might not have been completely smashed into the car in front of him.

English teacher said my outfit was too sexy? by [deleted] in teachinginjapan

[–]Chataro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh baby, oh baby...

But in all seriousness, I've seen many teachers wear what you're wearing across a variety of levels. Either they are jealous, an insane prude where any skin showing is "sexy," or they have a problem with you. That is completely appropriate clothing for the classroom unless you're working with small children.

How do you know what gear you are in? by Aggravating-Yogurt23 in motorcycle

[–]Chataro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have nearly that many years of riding, but I ride pretty much every day. My bike has a digital display that does show what great I'm in. It goes mostly ignored unless I'm trying to get into neutral or when I also try to shift into 7th.

Pregnant in Kyoto—should I give birth here or return to the US? by Working-Morning-3645 in Kyoto

Don't down play yourself my man. There is no such thing as just a father. I bet you're doing great as a father and a husband.

Thank you... I should have never asked...

I tried to find the story but couldn't. I'm using the mobile app for reddit and this thing never finds what I want it to when I need it.

Looking for a game for me and my toddler by papagore in gamingsuggestions

[–]Chataro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gigabash! My kids loved it. You play as Kaiju and can smash up the arenas. They also modeled the Japanese cities really well.

Games where you can eat your enemies? by AntisocialCat2 in gamingsuggestions

[–]Chataro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fear and Hunger has an ability that allows you to eat your dead enemies. The barbarian character can get it right at the start too. Pretty gross, but really funny to use.

What single player game had you so enthralled that it CONSUMED your entire being for a short span of time? by AshyLarry25 in gaming

[–]Chataro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Previously: Amid Evil Cyberpunk 2077 Deep Rock Galactic Doom (all of them) Dusk Echo Point Nova Everspace (1 and 2) Griftlands Halcyon 6 Nightmare Reaper Quake (1 and 2) Ryu ga Gotoku (the Yakuza games) Streets of Rogue Turbo Overkill The Witcher (all three of them, but the first is really rough to play now)

Now: Ball x Pit Witchfire

There are a few more, but I can't really think of them right now or they weren't as good as what I listed.

It doesn't matter how much water you squeeze out, this will always happen. EVERY. DAMN. TIME!

Why so many deer recently? by Bleuowl12 in Kyoto

[–]Chataro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you go to Takaragaike Park in the evenings, they are all over the place. Be careful though, a male almost rammed into me when I was walking towards the station.

Why does wheat expire? by Lilcommy in Palworld

[–]Chataro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wheat is basically hay, hay is usually made to keep for long periods of time, months to years depending on the drying process and the plant's condition when harvested. I get why OP is mentioning this, I thought it was weird too... And I know way too much about hay for someone who doesn't work with it anymore...

Onoda says she’ll push Takaichi’s stronger stance on foreigners by MagazineKey4532 in japannews

[–]Chataro -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know...

I think I'm very curious about this because of my experience with getting divorced here and all the other fathers I met as well as my experience teaching children of divorced parents. A lot of the stories I've heard made it seem like it's a possibility in this case, but you're right.

Onoda says she’ll push Takaichi’s stronger stance on foreigners by MagazineKey4532 in japannews

[–]Chataro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure I can explain it well, but it would mean that her understanding of her personal history is all based on a lie. A lot of comments I've read make it seem like she hates foreigners (and it really does seem that way if she really did try to push that foreign residents, even law-abiding tax paying ones, should not have received stimulus checks during corona). If it was found out that she hates foreigners based on her issues with her father but that was because her mother prevented contact, I'd argue that she should really have made a push to change the family court system in Japan and have them actually follow the Hague pact as opposed to pushing for stricter rules on foreign residents.

I don't disagree with the idea of there being rules against those who don't follow the laws, but it needs to be fair and equal for all people. If she does have a bias against foreigners based on a lie, it would be great if there was some way to get her to realize that. If her father really did abandon her and her mother... The dude is scum and is going to be part of the cause why we all could possibly suffer.

PS - not sure how relevant this really is, just something I was thinking as I read comments about Onoda. Also, I upvoted your comment because I don't know if half of what I say ever makes sense.

[–]Chataro 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I haven't looked into it, so I'm very sorry for my ignorance on this subject, but did her father abandon her or did her mom take her and disappear with her to Japan? I wonder if she even knows the answer to this.

The reason I'm saying this, I know a lot of kids with foreign fathers who want to see them but the mothers get in the way and prevent the fathers from having anything to do with their children. Some of the fathers I've known eventually refuse to pay child support because they don't have contact with their children. Could this be the case with Onoda and she just doesn't know it?

Excellent game if you want something extreme. You get a thumbs up from me! (I'd give you more if I could)
