Koohii stories:

1) [fuaburisu] 10-10-2005(146): The remainder of the bones have been thrown from the float (for the dogs maybe, at the end of the parade).

2) [Pauline] 18-6-2006(111): Throwing all those coins (see coin (#368 銭)) was a really bad idea; people got mad with greed. The only remainders left were the bones of those that was on the float.

3) [cameron_en] 13-9-2008(85): After the cannibal float had passed the crowd, all that remained were bones.

4) [Howdoken] 13-2-2008(30): At the halloween parade, there was a float made entirely from bones. Once the parade was over the remainder of the bones were left in the streets for the dogs to chew on.

5) [Perry] 11-4-2010(23): Maths problem - it takes 6 bones to make a float. If I have 37 bones and make as many floats as possible, what's the remainder?
