FAQ : What is the writing on Monkey's staff?

Another popular question. The writing on Monkey's staff says Ruyi Jingo Bang, which means something along the lines of "As-you-will Golden-bound Cudgel".

Basically, his staff would grow or shrink at Monkey's will, hence the name. That and it was a cudgel... and golden bound, obviously :-)
