Itâs a dirty joke.
Wang is the romanisation of a very common Chinese name ç WĂĄng, and also the less common æ±Ș WÄng.
However, wang is also American slang for the p*nis, Uncle Wangâs ârulerâ. Itâs suggested that that sense may derive from a word whangdoodle used in American poetry ca. 1856, a âwhimsical monsterâ.
So the box in the picture is an actual go game and the joke is just about the name?
I think so, yeah.

Sorry, I wouldnât call Earth âsettledâ yet. Although most of the big places are taken (except Antarctica?), there is still a lot of fighting around the boundaries, with reductions and invasions going on.
most of the big places are taken
Thereâs still a lot of empty space: Alaska, the Sahara, Mongolia, almost all of AustraliaâŠ
Australia has three people / sq. km, Canada has four, Russia has nine, Brazil has 25, and the contiguous USA has about a hundred. Earth as a whole (land only, without Antarctica) has around 150.
England, where I live, has about 430âŠ
How should we define unsettled in terms of population density? < 100 people / sq. km? In that case, somewhat over half of the worldâs countries qualify.
Hmm. Excluding Antarctica, there are about 135,000,000 sq. km of land. An approach could be taken to divide this into, say, 27 zones of 5,000,000 sq. km each and use those as standard density measures. In comparison, the contiguous USA is about 3,000,000 sq. km. The zones with < 50 ppl. / sq. km could be regarded as unsettled.
Chess is there
I see nothingâonly a deep nothingness between the weird reversible Go stones and Shogi.
Youâre right. Must have missed it. I think Iâll see if I can find a larger image of this.
I doubled the size of the .jpg, and it is now 1318x2398 px but it is still being scaled down. Maybe this one is weird because the image is tall and narrow.
