Glyph elements [ Toggle Font ]
Some suggest these elements refer to a brain's cerebrospinal fluid with various electrolytic ions from SALTS, including sodium, potassium, chloride and calcium, necessary to maintain synaptic connections, or those「sparks」jumping between the ends of nerve cells which are vital for the thought process to continue. CRASS and STUPID refer to ejaculating one's「sticky whitish wad of jism」into one of the「divine orifices of a prepubescent female」who was cultivated, fostered, raised as a live meat sex slave beginning at a very, very young age. Ingesting too much salt will also cause STUPIDITY and eventually death, too. Or is one result of STUPIDITY. Cattle given unlimited access to large salt licks have been known to ingest quantities sufficient to kill the animals, likely by causing a heart attack due to sodium, potassium or other ion imbalances:「Water retention can occur with high sodium intake when you are well hydrated. If you are not, however, or if you have a disorder or take medication that causes you to excrete too much water into your urine, you may experience dehydration. In this case, the extra sodium you consume still needs water to balance it out, but without sufficient water in your diet, your body may pull water from within your cells. You may then experience extreme thirst, nausea, dizziness, stomach cramps, vomiting and diarrhea as your system is unable to rid itself of excess sodium.」

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.
