Meanings of elements

RIGOR MORTIS, MEAT TOUGHENED BY SCARRING, CLOGGED MEAT and MARKED AS EMPHASIZED, THIS IS THE POINT, THIS SPOT RIGHT HERE
…or: FLUIDS and DARK DEEP AND STUPID, THE UNDERWORLD, DEEP SIX, THE GRAVE, BEING DEAD, DEAD BEING

Perhaps source of the English term 'deep six', elements of「drown, sunk surrounded by six, palming emissions」with DRIZZLE falling all around the guy in the floor performing various functions for others standing above. As the SEA or an OCEAN, likely a reference to how prevalent this condition is, since a whole lot of rained-down drizzle droplets from the clouds are what comprises all the seas of the world.
Right element specifically refers to the「darkness, ignorance and stupidity associated with frequenting the shaman's cave o' wonders.」Drizzle is a steady flow of small droplets. The sea receives all flows but is never full, meaning a boatload of drizzle. Both refer to the drip, drip, drip of excess pecker gleet extant among humanity and spread by the cave's service providers and clients, despite the shaman's best efforts as witch doctor. Note that the Japanese pronunciation of both 'sea' (海) and 'pus' (膿) are identical with this glyph as うみ (umi), perhaps coincidentally, but pus might be thought of DRIZZLING more often than does the sea, particularly with cases of rigor mortis. The United States Center for Disease Control estimated that in 2008 there were 110 million cases of sexually transmitted infections in the United States, and the country's population per the U.S. Census Bureau was 304 million [ https://www.cdc.gov/std/stats/STI-Estimates-Fact-Sheet-Feb-2013.pdf 2013-10-21 ]…imagine what it must have been like without antibiotics in the good ol' days of the ancient world, particularly in China where upwards to one-third or more of the female population were transformed and highly trained as sex machine service providers.

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.
