Here's a simple trick to remembering the difference between "stalactites" and "stalagmites."
The C in "stalactites" means that they descend from the ceiling, and the G in "stalagmites" means that they are straight-up gangsta.
Sipping aqua vitae, spitting aqua fortis.
And both words start with an 's', which will help you remember that I totally *stole* this joke from Twitter.
