[[Picture of a right hand with fingers curved, thumb pointed away, with axes drawn to demonstrate the right-hand rule of physics]]
Alternatives to the Right-Hand Rule in vector multiplication:
[[A slightly-open book with labeled axes drawn on.]]
Book Rule: Open the front cover along the first vector and the back cover along the second. The result vector is along the spine, out the top.
[[A handgun with axes.]]
Handgun Rule: Point the grip along the first vector and rotate it so that the second vector is on the safety latch side. Fire. The result vector is toward the bullet holes.
[[A person with right arm extended.]]
Body Rule (males only): Point your right arm along the first vector and your legs along the second, then watch some porn.

We did not invent the algorithm. The algorithm consistently finds Jesus. The algorithm killed Jeeves. The algorithm is banned in China. The algorithm is from Jersey. The algorithm constantly finds Jesus. This is not the algorithm. This is close.
