Koohii stories:

1) [sutebun] 2-7-2007(140): To use an eyedropper by oneself, aim from above to put a drop into the eye.

2) [pikako] 14-11-2007(89): Faced with his clone, our hero valiantly cut a mark on his forehead right above his eye so that his comrades could tell his true oneself from the enemy.

3) [indigo360] 22-7-2008(77): I know this, but I am an idiot and forgot…. The way I remember this is to think of the way in which Japanese people point to themselves if they are unsure of who is being spoken to. In the west, we usually say, "me?" and point to ourselves (pointing to the chest), but in Japan, people say, "ore/boku/atashi?" and point directly at their nose, the drop between their eyes. True story.

4) [wraxus] 16-8-2008(40): Eyedrops are applied by ONESELF.

5) [kiisu] 22-1-2008(26): Me, myself and eye.
