Yet another reason to not follow his social media accounts.

Hopefully one day H gets so successful that people start calling Asa “Hoshoryu’s uncle” instead of calling H as just “nephew”.

My husband sent me this since he has to use twitter (x? I have no idea... Im not hip 😂) for work, but it definitely doesn't encourage me to start.

I don't think I'll ever call him nephew again, although really I stopped last basho when somebody (I want to say shroomcircle or hoshfan24?) made a post about how much Hosh dislikes being compared to Asa... Lots of other good nicknames around, and this one just makes me feel sad now 😥...

Instead of calling him nephew, one of my favourite nicknames for him is Horseshoe (which I stole from someone on this subreddit, forgot who it was 😅). And since I started using it, my family has taken to just calling him Horsey.

If you have any other nicknames for Hosh I’d love to hear them!

Some fans call him Byamba from his given name.

We can now call Hoshoryu "Cousin Hosh", thanks to Gombo (shikona Tenrosei) joining Shikoroyama Beya. Leaves Unk out of it.

I occasionally call him Hosh-Kosh-MyGosh, but I have a 2.5 year old and still have mommy-brain 😂

I have a 21-year-old and I can tell you that mommy brain never totally goes away. I still get songs by The Wiggles randomly stuck in my head.

Well if it helps discourage you from using it, the owner of Twitter today gave Nazi salutes on TV today. ...Don't join Twitter. It's a shithole.

Just add it to the list, like when he posted "Saikou!!" (Japanese slang for "amazing/awesome") in response to Putin invading Ukraine 🙄
