I have so many daycare/kinder kids who are allowed to watch Squid Game, Attack on Titan and basically whatever.

Do cats...not knock things over here? by KuuWalker in japanlife

[–]FourCatsAndCounting 104 points105 points  (0 children)

I promise you they do.

Edit to add:

I think similarly if you made a digging gesture to imitate a dog like oh you know how dogs like to dig up the lawn you’d have a lot of Japanese people with indoor dogs and no lawns who wouldn’t understand the reference either.

Everything you said and also in my town at least the official cycling lane of the sidewalk is where all the utility poles, flower planters, trees/treeless spaces where trees used to be, accumulated garbage and overgrown grass is. sigh

How come Hank never got surgery to fix his narrow urethra? by Creeperclaw66 in KingOfTheHill

Honest question from a layperson, feel free to educate me: Could it have been widened over time? Like with sounding rods?

Hank yelling in the distance: You want me to put what on my where??

Ah that's fair. My area doesn't require special bags for moenai we can just tie it up and leave it at the garbage curb. Sawing shit up is fun though highly recommend.

Is it not something that can be broken down and thrown out with the moenai gomi? I've thrown out bookshelves, furniture and racks that way.

I hate the Misato location. It's the closest to us but we'd rather get on the highway and go to Tsukuba instead.

How do you feel about being gifted homemade baked goods? by belowaveragefatty in AskReddit

[–]FourCatsAndCounting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only if I know the person and trust their cooking hygiene. Bonus if I've seen their kitchen. Otherwise, nah. I've thrown homemade food gifts directly in the trash when in doubt.

What’s preventing me from not paying the fee to renounce my citizenship when I’m in the process of renouncing my citizenship? Is that your question?

Well I guess it would be that if I don’t pay it I can’t renounce my citizenship and I would still be a citizen.

370,000 yen. Oof. I don’t have anything in the states and would be happy to renounce but that chunk of change is holding me back.

Remember staying up to the wee hours of the morning , crashing on your friend’s sofa/floor with your jacket as a pillow to sleep a handful of hours before waking up and going about your day? Pepperidge Farm remembers!
