My friend came up with almost the exact same thing during high school. The only difference is that the DK stood for “Donkey Kong”.
Can’t say it wasn’t memorable!
I’ve also said Donkey Kong for years!
You use taxonomy to remind you to ask Kevin over?
Ah, the new Lemmy flipperoo
Hold my Kevin (gives him a smooch), I’m going in!
P.S [email protected] exists
“Domain, Kingdom, Phy- oh no! Kevin is right there! OK, I should ask before I forget.”
Wow, my bf’s name is Kenny and we love having gay sex, so this is perfect for me!
Is he a ratfucker
I hate that I have learned this factoid.
There’s a particularly horrible one people used to use to remember resistor color codes-
“Bad Boys Rape Our Young Girls But Violet Gives Willingly.”
Black, brown, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet, gray, white
Boomer Bigots Rely On Yellow-bellied Garbage By Vulgarizing General Wisdom
Black, brown, then the fucking colors of the rainbow in order, gray, white.
If you need a mnemonic to memorize that, you’re gonna have some trouble actually building out your lookup table in your head of immediately knowing that red=2, yellow=4, etc.
I’ve never clocked on that the colors are in the order of the rainbow. Mind blown that it’s taken your comment to highlight this for me.
I also like that the colors surrounding are shades of lightness… cough cough let’s ignore the brown.
It’s for those of us that prefer our circuit components to be LGBTQ+ friendly. Fuck those SMD resistors.
Having worked with a bunch of Boomer and older Gen X EEs, it is a fucking misogynistic boys club of white ass old men with undiagnosed autism. I have never heard so many racist and sexist jokes in the workplace (except when I worked in VC, and those guys were JUST sexist).
So this surprises me not at all (in fact, I think I’ve heard it before, but as “Black Boys * * *”).
It’s actually worse still. When I first heard it, the second B wasn’t “boys”. I’m Gen X and it was disgusting to hear even back then. Please don’t lump us in with the boomers. A lot changed in a few short years.
GenX here, my father was a racist and ran with a similar racist crowd, and i was disgusted pretty soon after i started to comprehend the shit they spew.
That crap they said sometimes still comes into my mind when seeing non-whites (i heard that stuff a lot, as my father descended into his alcoholism over 2 decades), and then i firmly disagree with those thoughts and feel icky. Racism (and i believe it’s the same for sexism) is an active choice, even when growing up in a racist environment.
For those who enjoy a little racism with their misogyny, there’s a way to disambiguate one of the B colors.
The racist term I was taught when I was a young person
(Color of darkness) (fatherless children) (coerced non-consensual reproduction activities) our (new people to the world) (XX people) but (pure people) go without.
I hate reading resistor color codes because which is the correct orientation for the resistor. Band gaps and positions on real world resistors don’t stand out as much as what the theoretical charts show - so I always meter them anyway.
You can say >!black bastards rape our young girls but virgins go without!< on here. We’re not reddit.
Edit - Evidently I was wrong, a mod has informed me that I need a spoiler tag
Can you please put that in a spoiler tag at least lmao.
I was so confused lmao

To add to this, my dad told me that “Get Some Now” was sometimes tacked on to indicate tolerance levels. Gold (5%), Silver (10%), Nothing (0%).
What the fuck
I can never remember that. Thanks!
I feel like Community inadvertently helped so many biology students in the past 10 years.
Why wouldn’t you use Karen…?
Kevin likes to be used
I’m starting to think no one here knows this is from a TV show…
Well, Kevin makes more sense to have gay sex with than Karen. At least if you are male.
I think Karen is just as capable as Kevin of having gay sex.
Depending on how pedantic you are.
This is why we need more women in STEM.
The hero we needed, but not the one we deserved.
Thank you, ThotDragon, for supporting the queer and feminist parts of the scientific community.
It’s gay sex, dummy.
So use “great”.
You can’t teach kids mnemonics about straight sex anymore, because of woke.
I thought this was sincere for a second. Totally got past my sarcasm filter.
“Who’s looking out for wealthy, white, Anglo-Saxon, evangelical, cisgendered, heterosexual men?!”
“Uh, the government?”
“Well, yeah. I meant aside from that.”
“Who’s looking out for wealthy, white, Anglo-Saxon, evangelical, cisgendered, heterosexual men?!”
the thing is… there’s gotta be at least a million Americans or more who unironically would say this
Well now I can’t remember anything!
Or good
Karen can have gay sex too, if she wants.
Literally taught my son about Prince Philip a few hours ago. And learned domains is a thing now. Wish I could show him this for the serendipity but def no lol
What are learned domains?
i think theyre referring to the mnemonic
King Phillip Came Over From Great Spain
=
Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species
and theyre saying they should add Domains to this (that precedes Kingdom)
Ohh, they learned that domains exist. Silly me. Lol I was ready for some epistemology, ngl.
Yeah, I reread it - that was a critical missing word! Sorry!
for classes of stars!
Yes! I learned it in astronomy class in 2008 and have never forgotten it! Lol.
Anybody got a sexy mnemonic that includes subphylum, subclass, superorder, suborder, etc? Or, more to the point, what taxonomic system gets us to the orgy the fastest?
Didn’t know Kevin was such a sub…
Sure, just tag “and subphylum, subclass, superorder, suborder” to the end, so that it’s ASSSS
And you know everyone wants and ASSSS orgy
spermy scat sometime soon
due to the ‘Dont Say Gay’ bill my biology teacher said it was “great sex” instead of “gay sex”.
literally 1984
Great (gay) sex
Why didn’t you make it “great” sex?
Great Community reference btw
It’s pride month
I love that show, too.
I took the liberty of looking up adjectives that start with ‘g’ and sorted them by frequency of use. I found it amusing:
Good
Green
General
Global
Grand
Golden
Guilty
Genetic
Gentle
Grim
Genuine
Gray
Growing
Graphic
Grateful
Glaring
Gracious
Greedy
Glorious
Giant
Grave
Grumpy
Gallant
Gaudy
Gray sex.
You know, sex between people of Pierce’s age.
That’s a hilarious take.
When I saw “Gray,” I imagined a black-and-white French art film depicting a couple and their struggle with ennui.
I choose guilty sex.
It makes it a little raunchy, without explaining why.
Catholicism has entered the chat.
I don’t know why Kevin would be interested with some physical XX And XY chromosomes
Relevant username ‘xx’, lol
Maybe in this case, it’s not about Kevin’s interest. The speaker is mandating that Kevin be Karyotyped to determine which bathrooms he can use.
grumpy
It’s a thing. Just don’t go too far down the Deviant Art rabbit hole. There be dragons.
I missed the “for.” There’s a serious lack of mpreg daddy dom fiction.
That’s understandable. There’s a lot going on in that cover picture and title.
Also, be the change you want to see in the world.
I remember telling my bio-chem mom about ‘King Phillip Came Over For Great Spaghetti’ in middle school. Didn’t realize why she chuckled until later.
Memorable 👍
so it was for Kevin
When I was in 9th grade our geography teacher put us in groups and assigned each of us a group of countries to memorize. We were given the task of creating a mnemonic to help us memorize. We got central America.
Panama, Costa arica, Nicaragua Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala, Belize, Mexico.
Please Call Nick He Sucks Good Butt Man.
It has been over 30 years and I’ve still never called Nick, but I’ll never forget central America.
We had to memorise South East Asia and its capitals. You had it easy. Look up the capital of Brunei.
We weren’t advised to use mnemonics
