Mnemonic


[b-] Bart Simpson is in the [4] bathroom of the [-a] auditorium where he is throwing 土 soil all over the tile as the bathroom attendants chase after him. They yell at him 罢 to cease but Bart ignores them. When they finally catch him with a 罒 net to make him 罢 cease, they tie his 厶 elbows together so he can't move. Bart then is forced to sit on the tile as the auditorium guests go in and out of the bathroom, pointing and laughing at him without 罢 cease.
