Koohii stories:

1) [jimsublimeman] 4-12-2007(225): The cavern refugees are so poor that they can't afford thermometers. So, the menfolk expose their crotches inside the cavern, and approximate the temperature in degrees from how shrivelled everything looks downstairs…

2) [jameserb] 3-5-2008(64): The cave is twenty degrees cooler than the outdoors. Twenty male crotches experience shrinkage.

3) [epsilondelta] 14-12-2009(62): PRIMITIVE: Cave + twenty = Finnish sauna (instead of Heisig's "caverns", which I'd confuse with "cave"). STORY: When it gets 95 degrees Celsius (or 200 degrees Fahrenheit) in the sauna, you start feeling the heat in your crotch.

4) [matticus] 20-12-2005(32): You might want to pick a seat in the cavern a little closer to the cooking fire, though. Otherwise, the second you sit down on the cold rocks, the temperature of your crotch will drop about fifty degrees!

5) [Spidercat] 8-2-2008(15): (Continuing story from previous kanji - thanks matticus) One of the commoners has no towel. As soon as he sits down on the cold rocks of the caverns, the temperature of his crotch drops about fifty degrees!
