Koohii Story 1 I did it all by myself! Mr T stands there proud as holding a moray eel in his hand. He´s brought down terrorist organisations, drug syndicates, but gets all worked up when catching a fish... what a guy.
Koohii Story 2 As astridtops mentions, this is "Ore". In Japanese r = l, so could write it "Ole". So picture a bullfight with person as the matador and a dachshund replacing the bull. The crowd keep shouting "Ole! (Ore)".
