Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

but you gotta learn the vowels at some point

They're the ones that aren't consonants. Next you'll be telling me they have a mnemonic for the alphabet.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think I need a mnemonic for 'ita.'

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

The villain has a villa in the mountains.

This is a great one.

I wish everyone would tell me what they're mnemonizing/acronymizing! Bees In Arbors Add Mystery!*

move out and draw fire

I just pasted

Bad boys ravish our young girls behind victory garden walls

into Google to see what it stood for (it's late here), and the number 1 hit is a Buffy/Spike fanfic.

Anyway, I did find some for the Genus-Species list: [link]

I'm more likely to have to remember what acronyms stand for than use those mnemonics. The full words work best for me.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Raq, it's the order of the colored lines on a resistor.

Thrive to spite them

The sometimes y thing always throws me. I went to a new school in 3rd grade and they taught the vowels differently than my other school, and I remember feeling stupid because I didn't know their way.

I can't remember what the difference was, just that it made me feel dumb.

Thanks, as I was never ever ever going to get that.
