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?

oh I do that!
the 'person has not been named' thing. Nobody except me ever finds it amusing. I think it may be because EVERY time I hear that the victim has not been named, I say 'Oh, luckily I have a name so nothing bad will ever happen to me'. God, it wasn't even funny the first time...
