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?

"You'd make a shit Haggis"The accusation levelled at any family member/friend who needs a pee a multiple of times, or with alarming regularity.
The logic goes this-away...
Haggis - the yummy offal-stuffed meaty-treat - is often *said* to be stuffed in a bladder, and for our logic to work, we shall assume that this is so. (Pretend that you don't know it's a stomach)
Small bladder = Small Haggis = Shit Haggis.
So ... it often comes to pass that someone (our dad) goes for a pee again... and one of us will mutter "You'd make a shite haggis Da'"
See? good.

...I'm going to say this to Mr Empress. He goes to the loo alarmingly often.

I thought is was in a sheep's stomach...... anyway, gross as it may sound, if you get the chance to try one that's been cooked in a stomach / bladder, do so!
*So* much better (juicier!) than the mass-produced plastic-wrapped full-of-oats garbage you get from a supermarket....

Dad used to get a proper one from time to time, usually for some occasion; I agree, fucking gorgeous!
I say 'used to' as we now get the mass-produced plastic-wrapped full-of-oats garbage you get from a supermarket :(
