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?

Vaguely similar
My friends and I would sometimes play a similar game, though for us it was making alliterative phrases, which had to make some kind of sense. Often done at the local diner, first person to miss a part would buy the drinks for the whole table.
Obviously, this would often lead to some particularly odd phrases ("Furiously Fornicating Firemen" was one that springs to mind)
