ι.ε.ε.σ.κ. (Greek letters)
It's the initials of some words from a class about home economics at school. I thought it would help me memorize them, but almost immediatly decided not to memorize them that way, because I feared that if I kept doing it for such unimportant things I'd soon fill up the space on my brain or at least it would become less effective of a memorizing mechanism over time.
Well, thought a bit too hard about not doing so I ended up remembering the initials. Until some time ago I think I event remembered the whole words.
My locker combination in high-school. I’m 61 now and haven’t needed it for 43 years, so I can give it to you: 9-16-37
A song from grade school: "Oh it's forty below in the winter, and it's twenty below in the fall, and it rises to zero in springtime, and we don't have no summer at all".
"Officer Cupcake" the local D.A.R.E. cop that did the school lectures.
My parents now defunct landline number.
I still remember my landline number from when I was 4 and there were only 5 digits. It makes me feel extremely old.

The lyrics to Skibidi Biden
The egg song, for the past 19 years. I always remember the lyrics and I don't know why.
Eggs! Get your eggs here! Fresh and white eggs are heeeeere!
As with others, a couple of childhood telephone numbers, and 6 times 8, 48; 8 times, 8 Chevalier, helped me with multiplication tables. For some reason 🙃
The words to "The going to bed book" by Sandra Boynton. I've read it to my son at night since the day he was born. It didn't take long until my wife and I no longer needed the book.
Also, all of the U.S. states in alphabetical order set to a tune. That came from some cassette tape that my mother used to play to us (she was a school teacher.)
