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
