Mnemonic Updated October 8, 2026


[g-] Gandalf is in the [4] bathroom of the [-ai] high school where a student has asked him to turn them into a 既 cyborg. With his staff, he turns toilet pipes into metal, but runs out halfway and patches the gaps with a 木 tree. Thus the student is 概 approximately ten percent wood, leaves and all, but close enough to 概 approximate a real 既 cyborg.
