Koohii stories:

1) [mantixen] 15-2-2007(82): Your father uses his legs to stop himself from being put in a metal cauldron.

2) [adrianbarritt] 14-1-2008(37): Whilst on holiday, my father was captured by cannibals and put in a metal cauldron.

3) [kapalama] 12-12-2010(16): 釜飯 , 茶釜 , 釜茹で , 電気釜 , お釜 , cauldron (#2332 釜) かま … Parts: 父 + 金 … Similars: 鬲Unicode-0x9b32 (#39730 鬲), 鼎 tripod (#2865 鼎), 鍋 pot (#2757 鍋) … Fun Fact: this is slang for butt; and because of that it has become the word for male homosexual/transvestites お釜 (Okama); Always hard to tell with these sorts of words, but it seems matter of fact, and not loaded with hate. So, when you are making stories about lowering fathers into metal cauldrons….

4) [Elphalpo] 12-7-2010(12): Father keeps his gold in a cauldron (he's a leprechaun).

5) [Katsuo] 9-2-2007(5): Picture some witches around their cauldron. They are making a magic brew to bring back their long-departed father. It works, kind of. The cauldron turns into their father, but unfortunately it’s just a metal statue of him (prob because the cauldron was made out of metal too).
