What’s “e621”?

Well, the term refers to a multiple things:

The first and most common meaning is found in the culinary sector to refer to Monosodium Glutamate, a flavour enhanced. “E621” is it’s E-number, the code to identify food additives in the E.U. (the E stands for “European”).

The second meaning is an acronym standing for:

**E**very day get at least:
**6** hours of sleep,
**2** proper meals,
**1** shower

Which is something I suggest you to do, sounds like a healthy checklist to me.

Of course, e621 can also mean something with fangs, and cartoony eyes, and hair, lots of hair: experiment 621 a.k.a. Chopsuey, an illegal genetic experiment created by Jumba Jookiba, and the main antagonist of the video game “Disney’s Stitch: Experiment 626”. He has all of Stitch’s powers but is less capable. He is jealous of all the attention that Stitch gets.

The remaining meanings are all used in algebra to indicate a canonical basis, what that means is a bit complicated so you should check the [Wikipedia page](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basis_(linear_algebra)#Coordinates) for specifics, but if you don’t want to just know that it either indicates a matrix with a single non-zero element in the slot where the 62nd row and the 1st column intersect or the 6th row and the 21st column instersect ; or, if it is a three-dimensional matrix, the slot where the 6th array/page, the second row and the first column all intersect.

And that’s everything “e621” means, nothing more, nothing less.

There absolutely isn’t some other meaning I purposely omitted, nor should you google it (because it will just redirect you to Monosodium Glutamate). But why would you? After all I just explained ALL of it’s possible meanings. 😉
