Koohii stories:

1) [Raichu] 29-3-2007(187): Start with a circumference and carve away until you get the shape you want.

2) [ayoung24] 18-12-2006(74): [My primitive for shape is Mystique, the shape-shifter from X-Men.] Mystique the shape-shifter carves obscure markings around the circumfrence of her blue body.

3) [DrWarrior12] 20-7-2008(65): (Primitive: shape - when you were three you played with Play-Doh.) 彫 : Did anyone else use the circumference of the Play-Doh container to carve circular shapes?

4) [Perry] 25-4-2010(38): HINT: There are a lot of good stories on this website using Bruce Lee as a primitive for sign of the dragon (#2008 辰), so you may want to avoid using him for shape. Mystique works well, as suggested by ayoung24.

5) [Uncreativity] 28-1-2010(15): HINT: To help me remember that 彡 leans the opposite way as ミ, I am calling that primitive my evil twin. It's mi from the mirror universe. You can also think of it as the three strokes of my evil twin's goatee. STORY: I know the witness saw me carve the entire circumference of the victim's skin, but it wasn't me, officer; it was my evil twin.
