「Dripping and deficient, head and neck in danger」describes how an individual might easily be passed by due to the presence of infectious symptoms and cause the NEXT IN SEQUENCE to take his (or, her) place in line.「Two, changed physical state, congealing, cooling drip by drip」with「person's taut erection and head rolled back, gaping, blowing hard」described the service providing fellatrix completing the contract with a client and hollering out「NEXT!.」…but also describes the danger of being the NEXT IN SEQUENCE and thereby acquiring a dose of infection or virus from the guy who was first in the sequence before you (oral gonorrhea is not a myth), maybe just a few minutes before or maybe last month, but in either case causing a「congealed deficient dripping」penile flow of your own after a few days—WHAT OCCURS NEXT IN A SEQUENCE OF EVENTS: symptoms are usually obvious enough that they will cause a man to seek medical treatment before complications occur. Some men have mild or no symptoms and can unknowingly transmit gonorrhea infections to their sex partners.
　　[　https://www.webmd.com/sexual-conditions/do-i-have-gonorrhea　2023-05-18　]　…and some women, too as the two World War army posters warned.
　With「deficient, beheaded」that depict the NEXT IN SEQUENCE: if the first guy is INFERIOR of a SUBSTANDARD QUALITY, MISSING PARTS such as the head, or SHORTENED, then most folks would try the NEXT IN SEQUENCE, moving on.
　Also suggesting that a second yawn follows the first, being the NEXT one. While the cause(s) of a yawning chain reaction remain speculative, it is a fact that among many species of animals, yawning is contagious, which is to say it affects anyone NEXT to the yawner, although contagious yawning does not affect others next in any sort of a sequence, but instead affects the whole group nearby equally at once. Researchers tell us that yawning serves to cool the brain in order to maintain optimal working temperature for continued thinking and alertness.

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.
