Mnemonic


[ji-] Jimmy Neutron is [2] inside the living room of the [-_] house where he is sitting on the couch with a 矢 dart up his nose that makes him even more intelligent. A 嫉 jealous 女 woman sits next to him and demands the 矢 dart so she can be smart, too. Jimmy pulls out the 矢 dart, now covered in 疒 snot and hands it to the 女 woman. Now that she has the 矢 dart she has nothing to be 嫉 jealous about, so tosses it onto the carpet and complains about something else.
