死亡率

死 = 匕 + 歹 : Shakespeare is scared to death when suddenly a witch attacks him with her ladle in the space station.

亡 = 乚 + 亠 : Willy Walrus (w) just finished digging a grave (亡) for his dead relatives who were killed in the Arctic in the anglepod's kitchen (ang2). Exhausted, he sticks the shovel (乚) in the earth and puts his beret (亠) on it. Finally, he sets up the tombstone (mnemonic symbol for 亡).

亾 = 乚 + 人 : My mnemonic for 亡 is a tombstone, so this ancient variant gets to be a sarcophagus.

Willy Walrus (w) has to bury the Neanderthal man (人) in the anglepod's kitchen (ang2). The Neanderthal man (人) is lying in a half open sarcophagus (亾) next to Willy, and Willy uses a shovel (乚) to dig the grave.

率 = 冫 + 十 + 玄 : Sheldon Shrimp (shu) is surprised by a stream of lava (玄) rushing into the airplane's bathroom (ai4). He acts quickly (率) and jumps on a huge cross (十) to save himself. Then he continues to lead (率) the stream of lava around the cross by placing popsicles (冫) on the floor in just the right way, so that the lava passes his cross without melting it. He notices that the heat flow to either side of the cross corresponds to the golden ratio (率).
