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?

Nice oneMy dad used a variation. If I turned up with a nice-looking girl, my dad would always say: 'Are you sure you can't do better than my son?'
I look back on those times fondly... knowing that he's only a few years away from me being able to lock him away in a nursing home hundreds of miles away.
