Heisig story:

This character, used for everything from little humps of hills to camel humps, easily suggests the hunch on the pig's back and hind parts where the best cuts of meat are to be found (and hence the English expression for luxury, "living high off the hog.") The elements we have to work with are: pinnacle . . . walking legs . . . cell.

Koohii stories:

2) [Raichu] 14-4-2007(51): A woman takes her bra off and what happens? Nine months later the hump in her belly pops out between her legs as a new life.

3) [blackstockc] 16-1-2008(43): I climbed to the pinnacle with my girlfriend and we immediately got to making life between her legs (humping).

4) [Ramchip] 23-7-2008(31): The Pinnacle, this perfect place, did have one person with a hump on his back. Poor guy spent his whole life aimlessly walking around the Pinnacle, without finding anyone to relate to.

5) [rtkrtk] 24-1-2008(31): The hump of a camel is actually a separate animal resting on top of the camel. It has its own walking legs and its own life. These animals are great as pets but are very expensive. A resident of The Pinnacle has bought one of the expensive pets - a hump with walking legs and a life of its own - and is walking it home from the pet store.
