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?

Oh yes
My family too.
At our last christmas gathering there were 30 of us. Allowing for family-to-family presents rather than individual-to-individual present in some cases, that's still over 100 times where we have to go through the above.
Being an impatient child was way more fun
