Oh hey, my fear. Do you have door knobs, or uh - the flat handled kind that swing down or up? I just realized I don’t know what those lever like door handles are called.

I can hear one of my cats pawing at the door knob at night, he’d be getting in places he shouldn’t if we had those flat kind.

I have cats and would never have the audacity to do something as vulgar as that.

I second ukulele if string instruments are on the table!

Seconded this. I’ll read about things I don’t even give a damn about, I just like reading. I’ll get better at commenting more one day, try my best for now ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I can’t stand the Democratic party. They’ll be getting 100% of my votes for the foreseeable future. Yay freedom! lol

Seconded. Weathering with You is also good, but Your Name and Suzume are absolutely top notch

Ah, fair! I only very recently started learning some Japanese, so beyond hiragana and katakana, I recognize basically nothing. I absolutely wouldn’t be able to recognize the others as Cantonese!

It’s Japanese not Mandarin too. I see うなぎ - unagi, which is definitely Hiragana

Edit: Now that I think about it though, Unagi is written in katakana I think? ウナギ, so maybe it is Chinese and they just poorly tried to translate

Are you at least vaguely responsible? You should be fine, grow a way man!

I don’t know if I agree with the content necessarily but do find it funny if I’m following right.

When on the phone with an automated system, many of them will bypass to a real person if they hear certain phrases, “representative” being a very commonly used one. I think it’s saying the way you say representative reflects your true self, whether you just calmly repeat “representative”, or yell “REPRESENTATIVE” at the robot until someone picks up lol

I thought they were dumb for the longest time, but I only have a conventional oven. Some stuff you want a convection oven for. It’s definitely a WAY cheaper alternative than buying a new oven that has both features, that’s for sure. Definitely need to adjust to the difference for temperature and time though, I’ve made that mistake before

It’s 2am and I don’t care to admit how long I looked at this.

I didn’t realize this until a sticker on a gas pump educated me. Stay woke friends

My highschools psychology/Japanese teacher taught us the word Defenestration, and I don’t think I will ever forget it. My friend did something to REALLY piss his dad off one day, and he came to yell at him in his room upstairs, not knowing I was over. He came in and took a huge breath, saw me and pointed “Get your ass out of here before I throw you out of that window”. He didn’t need to elaborate further, I dipped out and left my friend to his fate. I gained the ability to talk about that time a 70 year old man threatened to defenestrate me though, so that’s pretty great!

I think he was being sarcastic lol. I…hope

Yeah that’s pretty much where I’m at. I joined my buddy in his wife’s Japanese club, but I know absolutely nothing. Trying Duolingo primarily to learn the alphabets. It’s not perfect, but I can recognize them all and read Hiragana, so it’s not completely worthless!

Didn’t help me learn how to wite at ALL though. Too little practice, it’s definitely a tool (for some languages as least) that’s meant to be used with other learning methods

Remember in school when they made a big deal about the order of operations? This is why. It’s not clear as to why, as you’re not seeing the entire picture though, just some numbers.

I love that you can see them holding all the mugs in the first panel. They both knew how the whole conversation would go, and just had to step through the “pleasantries” one mug at a time

Oh my god I love them. Pet them lots for me

Growing up we had a cat named Remi, I would tell people his full name was Sir Remi Remington Remingston III. My mom hated it. I miss that cat, he was great
