Meanings of elements
COPULATING with SOIL
…or: SCREWING and TIPSY, TURNING and LOFTY
…or: EMITTED with SOIL
…or: GROUND SPLITTING
「Twisting, rotating, screwing」and「unstable, lofty, stupid, tipsy, copulating alone.」…or, also appears to be「copulating」with「soil, night soil feces」representing the shape, rapid emergence, and position in the soil of a MUSHROOM, and perhaps the aroma of raw mushrooms, too. Many mushroom varieties grow only on feces, such as cow pies.「Night soil with amputated feet」also describes slicing off the bottom of a mushroom prior to cooking or eating, since not too many folks enjoy ingesting feces with their mushroom stems. All the analogies of rapid swelling and growth overnight, sudden spore dispersion, spreading caps, long spongy stems emerging from soil and so on that relate mushrooms to human penile erections need no further explanation, most likely.
 As an element within other glyphs or as depicted with various fonts, this element may be drawn as「soil」over「emit」and MUSHROOMS do seem to「split the soil」with rapid growth overnight at times.「Copulating in night soil」as GROUND-BREAKING techniques that can only be related to ANAL SEX (see the many Used-In glyphs) that the wise old sages may have been suggesting are stupid, unstable, tipsy, and lonely, yet the common folk believe are lofty, approaching heaven, divine.
 Some sources claim the top is a single「plant」element merged with「top-heavy」(), again to describe the appearance of 'shrooms, although mushrooms are not technically considered to be a plant. Mushrooms are eukaryotic organisms, fungi, that actually share more characteristics with animals than with plants.

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. 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! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. 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 bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only 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 dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
