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?

It just gets my blood pumping...The great end product of kitkats and butter which I refer to as my father has been having blood pressure and heart problems as of late and has one of those portable machines to help log his pressure over his 'stressful' day as an unemployed web addict. In fact, the most productive thing he's done in recent weeks is send me 30 or so emails addressed 'FW: Funny lolololol'.
Anyway, in order for the doctors to realise how much attention he probably needs in the lifestyle consultancy department, we take it upon ourselves to 'improve' the blood pressure results before he takes his test by pissing him off as much as possible.
Such goldies so far are:
'Dad, I think Mrs Badger might be pregnant'
'You know I'm gay though, right?'
'I've recently welcomed Allah into my life'
'Who's that bloke Mum was having lunch with yesterday?'
He's still not clocked on to it, but the Fat Bastard Police have put him on some sort of new experiemental wonderdrug for the ticking timebomb that he is. My work here is done.
Length etc
