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?

"I saw it first!"In S. Florida (Ft. Lauderdale) there is an enormous pyramid. I have no idea what it's for and have never been interested, but when me, my dad and my ex-stepmother were in the car (usually her Camaro, I'm afraid) we used to have a ritual when that pyramid hove into view.
The first person to see any part of it through the trees had to shout, "I SAW IT FIRST!!!".
As time went by, we also developed "I SAW THE WHOLE THING FIRST!!!" once we had driven far enough that it was entirely visible from the road.
I have no idea who was responsible for starting this, but I suspect it was my ex-stepmother who is now hopefully dead, the ridiculous cunt.
