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?

Points
My father will always ask questions and reward points for the correct answers. Unfortunately the questions are never that simple.
For example
Father F: "What is the name of the pub in that village near where Andy & Polly live?"
Mister.F: "Erm, the Redhouse?"
Father.F: "Correct, but I'm only going to give you 5 points because of the Erm"
Twenty two years of this, and I've never been able to exchange the points of a prize
