I before E,
Except after C,
And words sounding like 'ay'
As in 'neighbour' and 'weigh'


However full of holes (feisty, seize, weird, science) is a very well known MNEMONIC! A mnemonic is any way of rephrasing a thing to make it easier to remember; that can be rhymes, songs, acronyms, or anything else

'Righty tighty lefty loosey' is a mnemonic!

The alphabet song is a mnemonic!

Post your favourite mnemonics here!

Even though I'm not religious, I like this little rhyme!
Have pa-tience
Have pa-tience
Don't be in such a hurry
When you get
Im- pa-tient
You only start to worry
Remember
Remember
That God is patient too
And think of all the times that others
Had to wait for you!

PORPHYRIA - the "vampire" or "werewolf" disease. (This disease was thought to have spawned the myth of vampires/werewolfs because of the symptoms.)
Historically, this disease was found in those of royal lineage due to marriage amongst close relatives. Caused by a disorder in porphyrin or heme synthesis, something super duper important in the blood!

Symptoms of cutaneous porphyria include:
-Photosensitivity (also called "sun poisoning" or "photoallergy"; contact with light may result in rash of the skin.)
-Necrosis of skin/gums (dying skin/gums)
-Pruritus (Fancy-schmancy term for "itching")
-Discoloration of teeth, typically red
-PURPLING OF POOPOO OR PEE PEE when exposed to light during an attack (porphyra means "purple" in Greek"

12 in the face, 6 in the plate!

That's the only one I can think of right now, referring to sheer nailing into ply wood. Carpentry stuffs. When I was first starting that always helped me remember a 6 and 12 standard nailing pattern.
 
When I taught myself to play guitar, I used this for standard tuning:

Eddy
Ate
Dynamite
Good
Bye
Eddy

>__> And then I stopped playing guitar, because learning on my own was too difficult for me.
