文过饰非

文 = 乂 + 亠 : Mnemonic symbol: a thick book.

Willy Walrus (w) wants to cook in the encampment's kitchen ((e)n2). The recipe book (文) is extremely greasy and Willy doesn't want it to touch anything, nor touch it. That's why he puts it into a beret (亠) so that it doesn't touch the floor, and uses pliers (乂) to turn the pages.

过 = 寸 + 辶 : Gitta Giraffe is trying out her new gladiator sandals in the observatory's bathroom. She's even able to cross a puddle of water with them by just walking on the water, so thumbs up for her!

饰 = 布 + 饣 : Sherlock Holmes (sh) has been hiding in the space station's bathroom (Ø4) to find out who has been smearing ornaments (饰) to the walls. One night he finally observes an intruder masked with an eye mask (布) smearing greasy lines on the wall using a Chinese cruller (饣).

非 = 三 + 丿 + 丨 : Mnemonic symbol: a negative film (photography).

Frankenstein's monster (f) made an effort to photograph the Eiffel Tower (ei1), but now his negative (非) is a big mess. In front of the tower he set up a camera on a Cartesian coordinate system (三) as a tripod, and he attached a banana (丿) and a dinosaur bone (丨) to the camera so that he can finely tune the angles. All was for naught as he now holds the messed up negative in his hands.
