Koohii stories:

1) [vosmiura] 24-10-2007(327): An hourglass filled with wheat counts time. A few wheat seeds drop every second.

2) [nmkohi] 12-4-2006(121): I'll be with you soon… please wheat a few seconds.

3) [fiminor] 14-4-2007(39): I first came across this kanji on my microwave, so; if you want to microwave wheat, it's important to remember only to set it for a few seconds. If it helps you can picture those wheat/bran bag things that you heat in the microwave and apply to muscle aches.

4) [taikura] 2-12-2008(26): Wheat can be cooked in a few seconds.

5) [xxinde] 30-3-2010(14): [thanks, vosmiura] An hourglass filled with wheat counts time. A few wheat grains drop every second. Why wheat, not rice? Because wheat grains are yellow, just like the sand in a regular hourglass.
