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 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usOLeGCo … re=related )

(video containing Kenshiro(violent) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9yCVL7q … 8;)

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!...
