I guess some things just stick for some people and not others.

I can recall the order of operations from school. Can’t remember peoples name though. I left school in 1999. For some reason I’ve never forgotten all the damn bones and muscles in the body either but I only did anatomy and physiology for a year and now I’m a software engineer. Minds are weird.

Sadly, I knew PEMDAS, but I tend to use 0% brainpower first, fuck up bigly, and only then actually pay attention.

We called it BODMAS. Also, bigly is a great word.
