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?

Funny...I've got one of you at home. It's not just the sunglasses either. Cufflinks, credit cards, socks, traction engines, they all disappear into some vortex of impossibility.
These days, I say nothing, find The Infuriating Thing within ten seconds and silently hand them to the fuming object of my affections. Saves a lot of imaginative swearing. They are usually...on the kitchen table.
