A racst and sexual rhyme to remember resistor colour coding?

Come on: inquiring minds and all that. What was it?

All I can remember from school mnemonics is

Rchard Of York Gave Battle In Vain for the colours of the spectrum and
Silly Old Htler Caught Awful Headaches Through Our Airmen for Sin, Cos,
Tan etc.

 

Black boys rape our young girls but virgins grow wiser.

Si

 

Some people have curly black hair through perpetual brushing.

Si

 

Black bastards rape our your girls but virgins go without

 

What's that a mnemonic for, then?

 

See Old Harry, Catch A Herring, Trawling Off America.

Funny how these things stick.

 

I've never used a mnemonic; by the time I'd heard one I already knew
the codes, though I can never remember the sub 1R0 sequence.

 

Bangkok Women Really Are Fellows.

Two Tits Must Feel Fuller Press Good and Hard

 

Anal Drizzling Cum Sponge Wanky **** Cunty Bollocks.

(Used for the wiring colours when fitting fire alarms).

 

LOL!

Paul.

 

Well, the one I learned at college in the 80s was...
Bad boys rape our young girls but virgins go willingly (or without)
But, I suppose an alternative could be substituting bad for black.

The colours are Black, brown, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet,
grey, white.

Maybe I should have said:
One was for pre diving checks.
The other was for pre flying checks.

 

Class.

 

For resistors
