Koohii stories:

1) [javiergakusei] 14-9-2007(181): A long time ago, people of the world got confused because there were so many kinds of Metal coins. today we only have the euro.

2) [Stormchild] 3-8-2006(157): Once upon a time, it was thought that the ancient "art" of alchemy could transform anything into gold. At that time, people were obviously confused about the difference between reality and myth. (Arguably people are still as confused as ever, just about different things now.).

3) [rgravina] 1-5-2007(49): Once upon a time there were some very confused alchemists. They couldn't understand why they couldn't turn other metals (i.e. lead) into gold. (adapted from Raichu).

4) [tummai] 22-5-2008(39): Once upon a time Metallica used to be a great metal band. Somewhere around 1990 they got confused and now they write shitty pop rock songs.

5) [epangelia2k2] 11-5-2008(30): Ahhh senility, when you are confused by the everything in the world . . . your golden years are not at all like your salad days.
