Mnemonic


[ku-] Koopa Troopa is in the [4] bathroom of the [-o] office building wearing a white collar shirt and tie. He works there and is on a bathroom break. He finds a small miniature 广 shack that reminds him of when he used to work for Bowser in the corner near the sink. He goes up to it and pokes it with his 扌 finger, wishing it was larger. It seems he pressed some magic button on the 广 shack, because it suddenly 扩 enlarges to normal side, pushing him over onto the tile in the process.
