Warning: my music nerd's about to come out.

I'm in my 40s, and have been playing music since single digits. I still remember the order of lines in the staffs with "Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge", "FACE", "Good Boys Deserve Fudge Always", and "All Cows Eat Grass". I did teach my kids "Good Burritos Don't Fall Apart", though, since they seem to like burritos.

My internal math nerd agrees with the grandparent though, for some reason I just remembered the order of operations and was confused when my kids came home with PEDMAS. But to be fair, I use the order of operations every day at work, so 🤷. I'm also one of those people who will insist on using parentheses everywhere there's more than two terms, though, so take from that what you will.
