Koohii stories:

1) [saranich] 11-12-2006(282): Fuaburisu's pictograph of a man kneeling and presenting the ring to his future wife is a one-sided version of the story. Others say he was giving her the finger.

2) [fuaburisu] 5-2-2006(121): Taking the keyword in the sense of only one part of a whole, I see this as a pictograph of a man kneeling and presenting the ring to his future wife (I couldn't see any trees or branches in there).

3) [Tzadeck] 21-7-2009(45): A one-sided romance–he proposes and she says no. (Thanks to fuaburisu).

4) [Odieone] 15-12-2008(15): If you look at this image from one side, it looks like the top hat is floating over a chair.

5) [LazyNomad] 5-1-2010(8): There is also other side (left-side) of the tree, which is the kanji - 爿(radical no. 90, which has the meaning of "piece of wood" and was earlier used in status quo (#239 状), robust (#321 壮), leader (#731 将), but then was simplified to "half-turtle" element). Now put them together - 爿片 - and you can see a tree.
