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?

I wrote a pun-inspired poem like that once
If we can get a plaice at a table
That's fine by me
We could just go for the hailbut
And maybe get some for free
But I wouldn't want to bass my decision
And make people pout
Purely because of my fascination
With the different types of trout
But alas, I'm starting to flounder
So i pray to cod, I still have a sole
Enough of this madness
