I’ll never understand these approaches to learning. They require remembering the phrase, and then require remembering how the phrase translates to the rules you need to remember.
I’ll just remember the rules in the first place. Less effort.
There’s just no way rote learning is easier than mnemonics unless you have a photographic memory.
Shit, I still remember the order of taxonomic ranks after seeing the phrase “King Phillip came over from Germany stoned” written in a used bio textbook 30 years ago when we never even made it to that chapter to officially study in class. I guarantee I never would’ve remembered the list “kingdom phylum class order family genus species”.
I’m not seeing a single mention of My Dear Aunt Sally. The youth are lost…
You’re drunk Sally, go to bedmas!
Aunt Sally said some racist things at Thanksgiving, I’m tired of excusing her smh
Already saying racist things this early in the morning? (It’s Thanksgiving in the US today)

Don’t ask anyone over the age of 45 how they remember resistor color codes …
Yeah, but there is more to remember. I remember BODMAS and if I forget the rules, I work it out and apply it.
