Mnemonic


[zh-] James Bond is in the [4] bathroom of the [-an] pawn shop where he comes across a 隹 turkey in the corner that is messing with a second-hand 灬 burner. The 隹 turkey accidentally lights himself on fire so James Bond takes out a 酉 bottle (vase) of 艹 flowers and throws it on the 隹 turkey. It is not effective! James Bond grabs the 隹 turkey by its feet and repeatedly 蘸 dips it into the dirty pawn shop toilet to extinguish the flames. Afterwards he 蘸 dips the still-flaming 灬 burner into the toilet too.
