this is no joke:

so my anatomy teacher starts of the day by holding a cucumber and saying

"oh oh oh, to touch and feel very green vegetables, ahhhh"

its a mnemomic device to memorize the cranial nerves in order:

olfactory optic oculomotor trochlear trigeminal abducens facial vestibulocohlear glossopharyngeal vagus accessory hypoglossal

either some horny college student or lonely old lady came up with this...

To remember Sin, Cosign, and Tangent.

Some Old Hippie, caught another hippie, trippin' on acid.
Sin Opposite Hypotenuse, Cosign Adjacent Hypotenuse, Tangent Opposite Adjacent.

I learned that a few years ago in Trig.

In 10th grade Chem, I made up a mnemomic that went:

"Oxen Eat Rice, Rats Eat Lentils"

but for the life of me, I can't remember what it was for. Something to do with electrodes, and right and left...

Can anyone help me out here? ^_^;

i would be guessing that oxen==oxidation, and rats==reduction?

maybe
eat=electrons?
rice=recieves?
lentils=loses?

any help?

It freaked me out when a science professor came up to me and said "The best cat is a dead cat."

To help remember anions and cations.

There are so many little sayings for everything.

I just remembered it as "PEMDAS." It's burnt into my memory now anyways, don't have to recall it.

I think that's it!

Oxidation electrons right, Reduction electrons left...

Does that sound about right, scientifically speaking?

I made up my own huge list to remember the names of the presidents in 7th grade. Rumor has it my teacher still talks about it to this day. I only remember the first part for the first names and the first part of the last names.

"Good Jim Tim just jumped junk another month while Adam and Alicia moved under Rob's junk. While Adam's junk moved, Mark and Jill both had tumors pulling tightly from Pendleton's beans, leaving Jill grabbing her gut."

Something like that.... yah, I was crazy. Still am to some degree.

My math teacher says GEMDAS

G = Group

What the hell is a hekameter? I've been using the metric system for ever and I've never heard of anything named hekameter.
