Meaning Mnemonic

When the moon faces the right direction, everyone on earth becomes obese. The pull of the moon moves all the water on earth as well as inside us, so when it faces the right way, we all get super fat.

Hints

Picture the moon turning to face a different direction. Feel your body start to become really obese. You get huge and round just like the moon.

Reading Mnemonic

You look around and everyone is obese like you. You try to reach out to them, but you roll over like a big bowling (ぼう) ball. The person next to you does too. Soon you're all rolling around like helpless, obese bowling balls.

Hints

Picture yourself, as obese and round as a bowling ball, rolling faster and faster down hills. Other people are rolling around you too. You're all screaming. You want the moon to face the other direction so it will stop. You don't like being a human bowling ball!
