Meanings of elements

CONTROL, PALMING ORIFICE SURROUNDED with PIGS, OBESE CONCUBINES
…or: HIGH PROUD EXPENSIVE PIG(S)

「Cover, control orifice, surrounded with pigs」or「expensive concubines」or a「haughty swine」or the「pig with control of the surrounding mouths and orifices」or「tall expensive high house」(multi-storied castle on a hill) refers to the LOCAL FEUDAL LORD, a STRONGMAN TOUGH GUY with an army of spears protruding in all directions, quills with barbed tips.
A QUILL used as a writing implement is a STIFF, HARD, UNBENDING hollow shaft that oozes black fluids mixed with clay after being dipped (into ink) as it is scraped along a surface similar to a feudal lord's pecker, or so the serfs were led to believe.
「Pig surrounding to control mouth and orifices」also describes a PORCUPINE that rolls itself into a ball when threatened, covering and surrounding its soft parts and orifices with 30,000 erectile QUILLS protruding in all directions.「Tall on all sides pig」also as PORCUPINE (note 'porcine' or pork in the English also, as「pig with thorns」like the needles of a pine tree). Porcupines are quite large, slow, short legged (they seldom, if ever, run), fearless rodents (and not pigs actually). Porcupines must ingest a large amount of salt to maintain their metabolism, hence to obtain salt, the animals are in fact quite BOLD and FEARLESS (or, stupid), and will eat nearly anything that smells salty (feces are often quite salty) being UNINHIBITED by nature. As a porcupine moves, its long, hollow quills rattle together, making a rather loud noise announcing their presence, again unafraid of the consequences: a tiger or lion will need to have become quite hungry before thinking it may find any supper within a porcupine hide, since it must get past all those sharp quills, first. Large cats don't always lose the battle, but porcupines do not need to flee a challenge, and often simply roll up, erect their 30,000 odd quills with barbed tips, and wait.

Always keep in mind that these glyphs most likely were originally designed by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that), representing Chinese society many thousands of years ago, but intended NOT as a written or spoken language when created. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system! Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is, and often with multiple correct answers to each riddle, the same as is true today. Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? But, have there been necessary rewrites and altered explanations of the original elemental meanings over the centuries?

No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how seemingly bad our human existence is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or could they have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any lexicon. This site explains multiple meanings of glyphs ignored or censored by other sources, generally as being too embarrassing to admit today.
