This is a question Family codes and rituals

Freddy 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?

Soaps reminds me
My father used to ritually pat each pocket, "Got my wallet, got my keys..." then he would grab his genitals "Got my dick!" He would stride triumphantly out the door to work.

All of my many brother do this to the consternation of their wives. I do it to scandalized whispers of "Shut up! Shut up, someone will hear you! Shutupshutupshutup!" from dignified Mr. Dub.



Why did he marry me?

she was in her late 80s and still doing that.
