Post your personal "variations" on radicals

#1
What I mean is post your own personal ways in which you alter the meaning of characters in order to make them more memorable
ex: lots of people on this site use 人 as "Mr T"

some of mine are:
夂=hard gay
人=喧死狼(kenshiro)
歓、権(the Pegasus radical ) = a kind of black theastrel like pegasus figure which breathes fire

(video containing hard gay
)

(video containing Kenshiro(violent)
 )

Ah sorry about that, I thought this thread was too irrelevant for that, thanks Fabrice Smile

I can't possibly be the first to think of this -- but when I first encountered 壮 and had to couple "turtle" and "samurai," I couldn't help immediately thinking of "teenage mutant ninja turtle." Which I've used ever since.

EDIT: I didn't make them up, but can I just add that I am loving the "yo momma" jokes? Many thanks to whoever submitted "Yo momma so obese, she make the moon change direction!" for 肪. I will surely never forget this one now, so keep those jokes coming! Smile

Though they are definitely not for the easily offended!...
