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?

Mum in LawNow my mum in law is a star, but one "tradition" she has which is annoying as hell is with pressies. She will give you a gift (B'day or Kenmas or anniversary or whatever) all wrapped up beautifully and, as you are opening it, she'll tell you what it is.
Ex Mrs Kites nan used to HATE wrapping, so would send an unwrapped gift with paper and sellotape so you could wrap your own gift.
