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?

We do this
drives my missus mad.
first time we had Chrimbo morning at the in-laws, I was amazed when everyone just dived in and ripped open their presents.
When My grandparents were still alive, there'd be 13 of us in the house for Christmas and opening presents would take about four hours. Really.
