Koohii stories:

1) [dwhitman] 11-10-2007(322): Flesh of a dog over a cooking fire = "hotdog". There are all sorts of things in hot dogs. Believe me, you don't want to know what sort of things . Visualize the hotdog curling as it cooks, to remember the unusual way the flesh primitive curves in this kanji. (tweaked version of ziggr's. Thanks!).

2) [ziggr] 9-9-2006(98): There are all sorts of things in hot dogs. (I use hot dog for this primitive (meat of a dog over a cooking fire). I swear I can actually see the 月 here as a hot dog, with its slight curve and grill marks.).

3) [mameha1977] 16-10-2007(39): Putting the flesh of a dog on a fire is the sort of thing that will get you arrested.

4) [vxnine] 21-9-2008(22): Imagine the flesh of a dog roasting OVER a fire. Gross. I'd never want to eat that sort of thing.

5) [Sonofswin] 2-2-2009(18): The moon in the evening is the sort of thing that makes a dog howl as if on fire.
