I had an assignment in grade school where I had to memorize all the counties in NJ and recite them in alphabetical order with correct spellings - this comes up WAY too often in my current job

hey y'all. strangest thing i HAVEN'T memorized is the alphabet...i still have to cycle through the whole thing to know which letter is where. But that's not all that uncommon, right?
  6:06pm
G:

I've memorized that Spike is always annoying. What's the point of knowing *that*?
  6:07pm
Danne D:

@robyn - I always remember K is before L in the alphabet by remembering they are reversed in the word "MILK"
  6:07pm

I remember a lot of stupid stuff, but I'm not sure how much stupid stuff I have memorized.

and a pickle on a sesame seed bun!

prayers from catholic school, stuck in my brain forever.

When I'm trying to recall the name of someone, I go through the alphabet. Sometimes takes more than one cycle.
  6:09pm
MISTER JOHNNY:

I never memorized the times tale for the number 12.
  6:09pm

@Mister Johnny - bzzzzzzzzzt

it's:

Pete the Flicker:

Frangry left out the onion in the list of Big Mac ingredients.
  6:12pm
Caryn:

I've memorized the order of the keys on a QWERTY keyboard. Occasionally I think of words in my mind and think of writing them on the keyboard (like "old": "O is between I & P, then go down diagonally and to the right for the L, then D on the same row, to the right of S") I think I need more hobbies. This is a sad way to spend my time and brainpower.
  6:12pm
G:

She takes the onion off the Big Mac.

trevor:

Had an emergency appt at the dentist today and was once again reminded of the schoolhouse rock song 'yuck-mouth'

They call me yuck mouth
cuz I don't brush!
You know I like my teeth like this.

Got some beef in my teef
gots some chicken too
Ouch! that's a cavity!
Hey that's new!

So if you don;t brush your teeth
you'll get there too
you'll be a yuck mouth!
  6:13pm
MISTER JOHNNY:

Why can I remember the names of classmates 30 years ago, but can't remember the names of people I met this morning?
  6:14pm
G:

@MJ: Because back then you were under the illusion that the people you knew were important. Now you know better.
  6:15pm
Skirkie:

I'm an engineer and I only remember 3.14.
  6:15pm
Danne D:

@Frangry:
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day, thou art more lovely and more temperate. Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, and summer's lease hath all too short a date. Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, And oft is it's gold reflection dimmed. And every fair from fair sometimes declines, by chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed. But thy eternal summer shall not fade, nor lose possession of that fair thou owest. Nor shall death brag thou wanderest in it shade, when in eternal lines to time thou growest. So long as men can breathe, and eyes can see, so long lives this and this gives life to thee.

MISTER JOHNNY:

How long until Frangry wants to bail on this topic?
  6:16pm
G:

I believe Jenna was exactly at 6:14 last week too. Creepy, unless it's being arranged! Creepy, if it's being arranged!
  6:17pm
Caryn:

I still remember the jingle and mailing address of a kids' show I watched 2 decades ago. But the funny thing is, every single person I know knows both those things by heart, too. There was even a newspaper story about how the mailing address jingle was disturbingly catchy and how essentially everyone in the country, no matter the generation, knows it by heart.

@G: weird things you have memorised: the exact time Jenna calls every week
  6:17pm
Danne D:

I had to remember than Sonnet for my Shakespeare class in college :)

  6:17pm
MISTER JOHNNY:

How about a St. Patrick's Day Topic? Like, where's the strangest place you've puked?
  6:18pm
G:

At my American-curriculum high school in Brasil, I had to memorize the Brasilian national anthem (melody and words) to sing at the graduation ceremony.
  6:18pm
g:

I can't relate to this topic. I can barely find my way home most days.
  6:18pm
Danne D:

I already used this for a winning call, so I'll just post it. I memorized the combination of the locker of the kid next to mine in HS cuz he randomly pissed me off and I proceeded to turn his lock around every day (sometimes twice a day) for the rest of the year. (I never disturbed the contents of his locker, just turned the lock around)
  6:19pm
Caryn:

During finals, I was done with 4 and a half hours to spare. But you weren't allowed to leave early, so I spent the time eating my snacks and reciting entire episodes of "Red Dwarf" in my mind. I still suspect some of the teachers and other students thought I was losing it from test pressure, because I was giggling to myself at the jokes.
  6:19pm
Danne D:

Are G and g two different commenters?
  6:20pm
g:

I am different.
  6:20pm
Danne D:

My mom used to clean to the soundtrack to Evita - I memorized large chunks of the "Che" part by osmosis.
  6:20pm
G:

@Caryn: Because a year or two ago I first noticed and mentioned that Jenna always gets through around quarter after. Then I started mentioning how many minutes early or late she was, most weeks.

Now I've got Frangry mentioning it, BWAHAHAHA! [rubs hands evilly]
  6:20pm
G:

g is shorter.
  6:20pm
Danne D:

We now need commenters named GiGi and G.G. to complete the collection :)

The address of The Munsters was 1313 Mockingbird Lane.

  6:21pm
g:

@ G: I prefer less tall.
  6:22pm
Danne D:

I memorized all the words in Spanish to La Cucaracha - the Spanish teacher explaining the part about the soldiers desperately needing marijuana.
  6:22pm
G:

Start calling yourself, G.G., that's as good as QuizGuy66 :-P
  6:22pm
Caryn:

Donald Duck's license plate number is 313.
  6:22pm
Jolene:

And I memorized IS THAT ALL THERE IS cuz I was bored
  6:22pm
Danne D:

Were I the only one in the office right now I would call in and sing La Cucaracha
  6:22pm
G:

what, not the pomposity of "vertically challenged"?
  6:22pm
Danne D:

@G - well I end posts under QuizGuy66 as QG - that's kinda close
  6:23pm
MISTER JOHNNY:

Americans say "cheese" to smile for a photo.

What do Spanish speakers say?
  6:23pm
Jolene:

I remember my first phone number cuz my parents were paranoid. We had a memorization session.
  6:23pm
robyn:

one of the few japanese words i remember from a year of the language is the word for mcdonald's - it's the same word but pronounced "mac-ah-da-now-ra-do-wa." it's awesome.
  6:23pm
G:

That's part of my thinking, DD
  6:23pm
Caryn:

In junior high, we had to learn "Silent Night" in Swahili. In high school, had to learn the South African national anthem. Still can't remember why. But still sing them occasionally.
  6:23pm
Ken From Hyde Park:

For a while, I had most of the US/Canada area codes memorized. Then they almost tripled the number of them and I lost interest.
  6:24pm
Danne D:

Neither has nonsense lyrics, Andy.

And I know the words in Spanish to La Bamba too.
  6:25pm
Danne D:

La cucaracha
La cucaracha
Yo no puede caminar
Porque no tiene
Porque le falta
Marijuana que fumar
Con las barbas
De Caranza
Voy a hacer un tocarilla
pa ponacerla
Un sombrero
Do ese bravo Pancho Villa!
  6:26pm
Danne D:

La Cucaracha is a soldier's song Pancho Villas Mexican rebels created.
  6:26pm
Caryn:

I really don't think knowing any song lyrics is particularly strange. Although the fact that for some reason I know most of the Ketchup Song annoys the hell out of me.
  6:26pm
Danne D:

They were gonna take Caranza's beard and turn it into a feather for the cap of Pancho Villa. After smoking some marijuana of course.
  6:27pm
Danne D:

La Bamba is actually one of just 3 songs I have ever sung in public
  6:27pm
robyn:

rollerrider, it's a scootboard! it's a what, it's a scootboard that's what it is...
  6:28pm
Ken From Hyde Park:

La cucaracha = The cockroach ? Google translate says so.
  6:28pm
Danne D:

Yep. Probably explains where the slang "roaches" comes from, eh?
  6:28pm
Pinball:

I memorized Charles Baudelaire "be always drunken.." and while drunk in Paris I would tell strangers that I was Gerard Depardieu's american cousin and I would recite the poem. It didn't go over to well...
  6:29pm
g:

I've accidentally memorized WAY too many Monty Python skits.
  6:29pm
G:

It does in Portuguese, too, Ken from HP. oy are they huge in Brasil. Warm climate. You can hear them walking on the floor.
  6:29pm
Danne D:

Lots of educational comments on the boards tonight.
  6:29pm
Caryn:

I can relate to Frangry in that I have never read a Dr. Seuss book. They don't have them here. Or "Where's Waldo?". "Curious George" and "Sesame Street" came here a few years ago. Neither one is very big, though. And "Sesame Street" ended after one season.
  6:29pm
Danne D:

*note to self avoid g if there's another Python fan in the same room*
  6:30pm
G:

Does the erotica involve a guy peeing on a female??
  6:31pm
Ken From Hyde Park:

Anyone here got the WFMU DJ schedule memorized?
<raises hand>
  6:31pm
Danne D:

Side note to basketball fans. Norfolk State is about to fuck up a lot of brackets (mine included)
  6:31pm
Tyler:

I memorized the song of a mechanical singing bird I had as a kid. I whistled it recently at a talent show.

  6:32pm
g:

What's that penguin doing on the TV?
  6:32pm
Caryn:

g is like me and pretty much half of my friends and relatives.

My dad and brother have memorised the track orders of dozens of albums. We'd go the sauna and they'd spend their time arguing about whether song X came before song Y on album Z.

Julie:

Frangry I just bought the first one for my kindle
  6:34pm
G:

@Frangry: Yeah, that is more common of a female interest than people would admit. I met my current gf on alt.com in 2005.
  6:34pm
MISTER JOHNNY:

Is there spooning involved?
  6:35pm
Deed:

what book is this?
  6:35pm
Caryn:

g, I think you mean: "Funny that penguin being there, innit? What's it doing there?" To which the answer would be "Standing."

When I was in grammar school, my friend and I had so much Cheech and Chong memorized we were able to get on our auditorium stage and perform for our class.

On a related note,
"Of course I can talk. I'm the Minister for Overseas Development."
  6:37pm
Caryn:

Also: "Dave's not here, man."
My dad keeps acting out Sister Mary Elephant.
  6:38pm
G:

@Danne: That's considered kinda vanilla by those in the BDSM "lifestyle" as they call it (I'm not part of that clique), -- but whatever floats one's boat :-P
  6:38pm
Ken From Hyde Park:

Yeah....the bands on resistors. First ones are the value, like 5-0 and then one for 10 to the x power.
  6:39pm
Danne D:

@G lol - just was referencing the show, wasn't grading on a scale.
  6:39pm
g:

@Caryn: You make me feel better about myself. By which I mean you are crazier than me. Thank you.

Pinball:

whens the Shut Up Wierdo Spring Meet up?
  6:43pm
Caryn:

@g: yeah, I regularly commiserate with my sister-in-law about what a crazy family she has landed herself in. Family dinners? Good lord, the constant barrage of weird quotes, in-jokes, debates about useless trivia and talk in numerous languages and accents... Oy vey. But I suspect they'd consider you "one of us" in a "Freaks" way. Hell, they're weird enough to chant it like in the movie.
  6:43pm
g:

Hi. I'm a 32 year old man who has memorized all the back and medial vowels from The Little Mermaid. Have a good one!
  6:45pm
G:

@g: Linguistics minor here. It has to do with where the tongue is while making the vowel. For ex., I is a front vowel, U is a back vowel. Medial means mid-mouth. The dude was using terminology most people don't know in order to explain how he learned to do various dialects of English for being in stage plays.
  6:45pm
Pinball:

YEAH!
  6:45pm
Jordan:

Were there any popcicles in the erotica books?

Thank you Caryn and G. I make friends and learn things every week on this board. I love the Interwebs!

@G: we had to learn all that in our interpreter studies. The different groupings of vowels and consonants, the different ways to form sounds, the different parts of the mouth...

McGruff the Crime Dog was caught exposing himself to children.
  6:50pm
G:

It's called "articulatory phonetics," i.e., how you move and place different parts of your speech machinery to articulate (make) sounds. Kids pick it up just by imitating adults, without ever realizing how the system works scietifically.

I don't think you can't say "articulatory phonetics" on the radio.

When I visited my family last weekend, they suddenly started talking about how they still remembered the jingle and slogan of a Dutch supermarket chain from years ago when they lived there. Disturbingly, I remembered the slogan too. And the layout of the mall the supermarket was in. (turn right to get to the post office, the next corner is the fishmongers', then there's the butcher shop with the good spicy chicken wings, then the vegetable stall where we bought kohlrabi once, then the cafe with the really small tables, across from which is the store where they sold the cheap sports socks, etc.) Why do I still remember all this?
