stalactites and stalagmites
As a kid, people always said the way to remember that stalagmites were on the bottoms of caves and stalactites were on the top was that stalactites “had to stick tight to the tops of caves.”
This never made sense to me though, since one could also just as reasonably say that stalagmites have to use might to stick to the tops of caves, if that was what they actually did. Because of this, I never remember right from might from the whole “stick tight” thing.
Instead, I, being the counterintuitive weirdo I am, remembered them by remembering the fact that I thought that the saying people used to remember it was really dumb.
Because why NOT make everything in life harder?

I used to draw fake Pokemon when I was learning pixel art, and while a lot of them weren't very good, they were eventually something I could be proud of. These ones in particular are some of my favorite - Pagespar, Quartzquire, and Stalacknight, stalagmite cave monsters that are literal cave monsters.
