Naked CPR and PAPP smear for naked viruses. Not very helpful when half the viruses start with P

I second this one. Half of them really do start with P!
Haha that's one of the ones I liked.
The "famous 5 Fs" for the limbic system.
The limbic system is responsible for Feeding, Fleeing, Fighting, Feeling, and sex.
There are *FOUR* Fs for the limbic system. FA didn't even correct this in the official corrections they released, nor did DIT. Disappointing.

I actually found this pneumonic the only way I could memorize the atypicals 😵.
I find the P450 inducers and inhibiitors pretty useless. I use:
Super Big Penises Cause Really Gay Queers
and
Crazy Korean Grandmothers Eat Infected ****
They are easier to remember in stressful situations because of their political incorrectness.
This picture, along with the quoted post was quite funny. Well played engineered...

I learned it originally as "feeding, fleeing, fighting, and ****ing" too. That's four. Forget this "feeling" nonsense. Of course it's "feeling." Look at the rest of the words!

I have to admit... Now that I've spent so much energy making fun of it, it actually works pretty well.

Well...here's one I liked: "Can I keep selling sex for money, officer?" for TCA cycle intermediates.
I didn't like the virus ones either. One we made up for immuno was "Naked Pics in Cali and Reo? Papa Adeno!" For the naked viruses. (Papa for both Papova and Parvovirus).
Also didn't like "Young liver synthesizes blood" for embryology because the sentence can confuse you that liver is first, when its really yolk sac. Replaced it with "YeLlow SuBmarine" (Yolk sac, liver, spleen, then bone marrow). Plus, you're not gonna forget yellow submarine but you can forget a boring sentence.

Yikes, that one actually took me a second to comprehend...haha 😳. Politically incorrect probably, but I think I'll remember it now
