Onesan

In the world of geisha, the word onesan (pronounced oh-neh-sahn) means 'older sister'. Every maiko (apprentice geisha) has an onesan. When a maiko has her misedashi (formal debut) she goes through san san kudo. San san kudo is a binding ceremony, where a maiko and geiko (geisha) are legally bound as sisters. A maiko's onesan gives her advice and helps her in the complicated world of geisha. A maiko's onesan is always in the same hanamachi (geisha district).
Right now I am only a minarai, but when I have my misedashi, I will be formally bound with my onesan.

bamboo man does not erect oneself

The word got its origin from from a chinese quote that meant something along the line of "Dissing others does not help oneself". When I tried to translated it into English literally, it turned out to be something pretty hilarious.
bamboo man does not erect oneself, so stop being a bad boy and make fun of your fellow classmates.

2nd Person: Cool, can I continue that idea in another thread?

1st Person: Sure, let me include that in an edit.
