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?

That
is one of the most honest things I've ever read on this site.
I make no bones about it - I like a drink or three. But fortunately it doesn't do anything other than (a) make me giggly and stupid and (b) send me crashing off to sleep (we'll leave the small issue of liver damage out of things). But I have seen what it can do to people, my ex father in law being a case in point, having suffered a fatal alcohol-induced heart attack.
*Clicks like mad*
