Mnemonic


[k-] Kermit the Frog is in the [4] bathroom of the [-ang] chapel where he has set up a 炕 brick-heated bed next to the holy water sink that is in the corner. He sits on it with some priests, and they all turn individual 亢 turntables to generate 火 fire that powers the 炕 brick-heated bed as they pray in gratitude for their warm 炕 brick-heated bed. Kermit thinks it is almost too hot, and feels like a frog being boiled alive.
