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?

SSPsWhen my sister (and our cousins) were little, my Poppa (Dad's dad for those who don't know the term) would ask us questions and the first correct answer would receive a Small Sealed Prize. When we were little, it'd be whoever sees Hode Monument first gets an SSP, and stuff like that. As we got older they became more difficult, such as 'What does 'crepuscular' mean?'. (it means animals mostly active during twilight, or that light and I'll never forget it). I've earned thousands of these SSPs.
He passed away last week and never coughed them up. I'll miss him.
