Family codes and ritualsFreddy Woo writes, "as a child we used to have a 'whoever cuts doesn't choose the slice' rule with cake. It worked brilliantly, but it's left me completely anal about dividing up food - my wife just takes the piss as I ritually compare all the slice sizes."
What codes and rituals does your family have?

Used to do a similar thing with my son, when jockeying for position on the sofa.We'd try to sit down at the same time and shove each other over with our behinds, calling out insults to each others' rears.
Big bum!
Fat bum!
Fatarse!
Arse face!
Bum face!
Arse bum!
etc.
Eventually we'd reach 'bum arse', 'arse arse' and, if we could still speak through the laughter, 'bum bum'. Whoever said this won.
Happy days.
