Mnemonic

Excuse me, I don’t think I’ve introduced myself yet. My name is Ben (べん) and I use powerful muscle exertion to accomplish every task. Ben knows what Ben wants and how to get it. Remember that, kids.

Hints

Picture this Ben in your head. Ben always uses lots of exertion to do tasks. Imagine him using an unnecessary amount of power and exertion in carrying out normal everyday tasks.
