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!

You use taxonomy to remind you to ask Kevin over?
"Domain, Kingdom, Phy- oh no! Kevin is right there! OK, I should ask before I forget."
Ah, the new Lemmy flipperoo
Hold my Kevin (gives him a smooch), I'm going in!
P.S !lemmaroo@lemmy.world exists
Memorable 👍
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.
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.
Remember Send Vedding Present.
Wow, my bf's name is Kenny and we love having gay sex, so this is perfect for me!
My GCSE bio class taught something along the lines of "Dear kinky prostitutes, come over for great sex"
Interesting. Kevin showed up either way.
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
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
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%).
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.

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.
Why didn't you make it "great" sex?
Great Community reference btw
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
I choose guilty sex.
It makes it a little raunchy, without explaining why.
Gray sex.
You know, sex between people of Pierce's age.
I don't know why Kevin would be interested with some physical XX And XY chromosomes
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.
I can never remember that. Thanks!
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?
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)
due to the 'Dont Say Gay' bill my biology teacher said it was "great sex" instead of "gay sex".
literally 1984
for classes of stars!
Why wouldn't you use Karen...?
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."
the thing is... there's gotta be at least a million Americans or more who unironically would say this
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.
This is why we need more women in STEM.
See my stupid ass would remember the fun phrase but not the related factual word. So I'd just have phrases with no inkling what the original info was.
Taxonomy is much more complicated than I remember from high school. For one thing I thought the top level was Kingdom, consisting of Animal and Plant. There's like 50x more to it. And I actually liked school and mostly paid attention. WTF?
Reminds us of how one of our teachers taught us SOHCAHTOA:
Sex On Hard Concrete Always Harms The Orgasmic Areas.
Which is Domain? When I learned this, it only started at Kevin. Nice to see folks getting more polite regarding their gay sex.
Archaea and Everything Else (I can't remember the other domain)
The kingdoms have changed several times, they're basically trying to use a more accurate system based on DNA using genotyping to decide which groups are more closely related and be less reliant on behavior and appearance.
