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?

He means sex.

Actuallyjust some hot three ring action...
The origin is rather gross. When my dad was pissed (English: mad) with us, he would always claim he had been going to take us kids to the circus, but now we were so naughty he couldn't possibly.
Mr. Dub thought the empty promise/threat was so funny he adopted it as his euphemism. It's very amusing to see dignified silver-haired banker-type Mr. Dub sidle up to me and discreetly inquire, "Would you like to.... gotothecircus?"
