Mnemonic

You buy an awesome hinge and try it out. Instead of working properly, it just falls apart and the door falls on you, crushing your lower body. You yell out (and you have to yell) "I'm GOING TO SUUUUEEE (すう) YOU!"

Really lengthen out that "sue" because it's a long "suu" for the reading and that will help.
