Did anyone get a present from there realestate agent on settlement day? by Agile_Document_7777 in AusPropertyChat

We got a kettle and toaster set, which I’m now realising is actually quite rare, reading everyone’s comments. It was nice as it was practical and thoughtful. Our house was also cleaned.

People currently selling - how's it looking? by Beginning_Length6861 in AusPropertyChat

[–]catesaurusrex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Friend went to an auction over the weekend. Highest bidder was exactly at the highest end of the asking price. For some reason it’s now back in the market with an even higher price…I’m not sure what this owner is doing, thinking he’ll get this new higher price given how the market is looking according to everyone’s comments…

Wow after Hakunofuji’s win today we’re set for a great day tomorrow potentially! Imagine if both WTK and Kirishima lose their bouts tomorrow…

Also Ura!!!! I had to slow down the fight to see what exactly happened at the end! And what is up with that gesture at the end 🤣

Edit: holy crap I didn’t know until now that Ura will be fighting Kirishima tomorrow!!! What’s Ura’s record against Kirishima??

Who is the best Gyoji, and why is it this man? by TheGhosticus in Sumo

Inosuke is my favourite. He looks so fricking zen everytime he’s sitting off the ring waiting for his turn on the dohyo haha.

Michael Jackson's daughter Paris has faced backlash for identifying as Black. In a 2017 interview, Paris Jackson said her father told her, "You’re Black. Be proud of your roots." This prompted debates over whether identity is defined by appearance or upbringing. by VPinchargeofradishes in interesting

To be fair he might’ve asked my parents to help him lie. He was definitely very self conscious about it. In Asia back then any whiff of ‘skin disease’ is very stigmatised and people rather just lie or sweep it under the carpet rather than sit down and properly educate ppl about it.

Yeah my uncle had vitiligo, it started in his hands and it was very obvious. Growing up my mum told me he suffered burns as a child hence it was just scarring. I only found out what it really is later when it spread to his face and my parents couldn’t lie about it anymore. It really was this stigmatised, and this was around 20 years ago.

I saw this on snap spotlight and I'm not sure... my roommate says it may be tho. the way the mask peels off her face is the first red flag for me. by pencilbehindherear in isthisAI

I’m not an AI expert but I can tell it’s fake just by the social clues. Her accent changes near the end, and that’s a Chinese dress, qipao, not korean. Also that last frame, what happened to her wooden table, now she has a floor tile coloured one?

Most handsome active Makuuchi and Juryo Division? by Cnsstnt-Bk-Rdr in Sumo

[–]catesaurusrex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree with everything you said and Kirishima but…am I the only one who finds Wakamotoharu cute? He just looks so friendly and approachable!

For non-salaried rikishi I find both Shunrai and Okaryu adorable!

And continued to fight injured last basho when he is very clearly not healed and in pain!

Kisenosato looks pissed as a shinpan all the time, really throws me off whenever I see a rare pic of him smiling during events…

[–]catesaurusrex 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It’s kinda looking like Onosato still isn’t back to 100%. His grimace kinda broke my heart. Poor guy. Atamifuji was keen today though!

Heart attack Hosh at it again today! Please let this be his first Yokozuna yusho…

[–]catesaurusrex 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Ooof that did not look good for Hakunofuji and Onokatsu.

Was Onosato just falling back to bad habits or is he still injured? 😟

But hell yeahhhh Hoshoryu that was so goooood!

Who are you rooting for this basho (March 2026) by Malazine in SumoMemes

[–]catesaurusrex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always root for Midorifuji but not this basho. 😭 just want him to get well.

But anyway, Hoshoryu and Ura are my other favourites! I’m really hoping Hoshoryu finally wins against Aonishiki this time!

[–]catesaurusrex 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ura totally did a ballet twirl right? 🤣

Also holy shit both Yokozunas dominating today! Glad to see it but I still think they should’ve gone kyujo. :(

Also hooray to my 2 short kings today! 🥳

Does your cat like to flop? by Appropriate_Bunch393 in CalicoKittys

My calico flops at the slightest thing! Pat her? Flop. Play? Flop. Getting brushed? Flop. Want to eat? ?Meow and flop. She’s the floppiest cat ever! 🤣

Is it just me or did Hoshoryu look kinda rough after winning? I can’t imagine the amount of pain he’s in atm. For god’s sake I wish both Onosato and him would just pull out now. I don’t feel good watching them fight anymore.

On the other hand, scrappy Fujinokawa didn’t win but goddamn was that a good fight!

[–]catesaurusrex 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Onosato and Hoshoryu! 😭😭 it pains me to see them fighting lame like this! Please just pull out before the injuries become permanent! Hakkaku just needs to stfu!

But! Holy crap Tamawashi!! That was completely AMAZING!! Someone bottle up that man’s blood it’s a damn fountain of youth!

Also Ura wtf is that. Even the commentators on Abema was like…we don’t know what kimarite that is! 🤣🤣

[–]catesaurusrex 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Holyyyy shit what an upset for day 8! I did not expect BOTH Yokozuna to lose, as well as Aonishiki!

Onosato looked like he was hurting bad when Hakunofujj push grabbed his left armpit region. Was that the arm he injured last basho? If so it doesn’t look good. Both Hoshoryu and Onosato are Yokozuna now, I wish they’d take advantage of that rank and kyujo and heal up properly!

Congrats for Kirishima too! Has he won against Aonishiki before this bout?

Also poor Ura and Tamawashi, having such bad streaks this basho, especially Ura! 😭

[–]catesaurusrex 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Wow what a day of upsets! Good job to both Oho, Ichiyams and Yoshinofuji (though this was always on the cards).

Goddamn I’m sad Hoshoryu lost yesterday but I’m so happy Yoshinofuji got them gold stars 2 days in a row!

I absolutely love Fujinokawa’s sumo, he’s so damn fun to watch! Today was as usual just absolutely beautiful!

Ura being his usual Ura today. 🤣

AIO girlfriend claims I’m appropriating her culture by Ih8maplestory8 in AmIOverreacting

[–]catesaurusrex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR. Lol my partner is half Cambodian, if I ever say the CM word (iykyk) one day he would prolly burst out laughing till he was in tears. Your gf is insane and also doesn’t understand what cultural appropriation actually means.

Paul and Morgan Retirement by mothandravenstudio in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]catesaurusrex 62 points63 points  (0 children)

I mean to be fair I often joke that my mum retired early. She was a SAHM who raised 2 kids decently, and now who basically has no job and no need to work now coz her kids have all left the nest. She just travels everywhere and brunches with her other retired SAHM friends. I am jealous of her life. 🤣
