Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I can't remember the order of Jupiter through Neptune without the mnemonic. You get beyond the asteroid belt and I get totally lost.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The first mnemonic I learned was at the beginning of 1st grade:
"Lady, I owe you some sugar"
except the person saying it had a speach impediment, so he says it, "A E, I owe you some sugar." For remembering the vowels (except Y. Y is always the exception.)

Since I routinely fuck up this word, hopefully I will remember this. I'm slowly shortening the list of words I routinely misspell.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
But the vowels are the vowels! You don't need a mnemonic!
Pfft.
Some people.

I had "one collar, two socks" to remember that there's one "c" and two "s's" in "necessary."

Exactly. That goes for the planets, too.

Yeah, but you gotta learn the vowels at some point.
