Koohii stories:

1) [darg_sama] 3-11-2005(252): Ok, this is where knowing some Eastern culture comes in handy! In Japanese society, when someone dies they creamate the body and pick out the remaining bones with special chopsticks. In this case, they're out of chopsticks so they decide to use (gasp!) a spoon instead.

2) [pacersfan218] 1-9-2007(108): Imagine the grim reaper (the bringer of death), carrying a spoon made of human bones instead of a scythe.

3) [blackstockc] 3-2-2008(68): The Grim Reaper eats bones for breakfast (with a spoon).

4) [Biene] 28-4-2008(25): Remeber DEATH from Terry Pratchett's Discworld books? Now picture bony DEATH as he sits down (in the book "Mort") in the restaurant together with his new apprentice to eat a bowl of hot curry with a spoon.

5) [peepiceek] 20-7-2008(17): One evening I choked to death on a spoon. (Don't ask how I wrote this…).
