One trivially simple one I remember from a very long time ago was how
to remember which, rods or cones, were responsible for night vision
(light and dark) versus day (color) vision.  "Rods work at night",
referring to the then colloquial term for "penis" as a "rod".  Whether
that's still colloquial I don't know.
