Wait until you hear about USB condoms.

In my electronics class in high school we learned to strip and do joints.

We also learned the resister color codes via mnemonics.

"Bad Boys Rape Our Young Girls But Violet Gives Willingly, Get Some Now" Curious if they still teach that one. [1] Wikipedia says it is outdated / offensive but it was back then too.

Black Boys, since the first mnemonic letter is for the color black. And we didn't have Get Some Now, that feels redundant since everyone knows gold is better than silver.
