Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

I know there was a mnemonic for remembering the full classification of man besides Homo Sapiens, but I can't remember it. How ironic.

Fudge. Definitely. Fudge and pie. I have tasty mnemonics.

What's one for species, kingdom, phylum, and all that jazz? I never learned one.

All is well that ends in pizza.

The flip-flop that dare not speak its name....

At least it's not a thong.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

My most useful mnemonic (at least for me) was taught to me by a supervisor I had in a college job. When I complained that I always had to write down both "seperate" and "separate" and look at them to figure out which was the correct spelling, he told me to "Always remember that there is 'a rat' in 'separate'!" I've never had problems spelling that word since.

What is even happening?

I just remember that one because "par" is part of part, which is what you're doing to things you're separating--parting them.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Boys go to Mars, to get more candy bars.
Girls go to Jupiter, to get more stupider.

Well, that's because boys can't get more stupid.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Similarly, I have "Oh, CeeCee, you are red" for occurred.
