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?

AmbushesFor no reason whatsoever, my mum and dad both decide to put the computer chair (big, black leather thing) across the porch door and then they turn off all the lights in the house.
I'm sure in their head it's to deter burglars (Who'd come though the front door when breaking in?!?!?) but all it manges to do is catch me unawares when I walk in form the pub and results in swearing and much gnashing of teeth as I walk into it yet again in my inebriated state...
