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?

A friend of mine
Used to tell his little sister that if she was naughty, he'd phone the 'pie lady' to come and get her. The 'pie lady' liked to use little girls as the filling for her delicious pies. Suffice to say, the kid sister was always angelically well behaved....and is probably undergoing therapy now she's grown up.
