Get the the 5 second seat rulemug. A rule often employed for those who seem to be over-exuberant or too comfortable in their surroundings. 10 seconds before you start speaking, stop.

Get the Ten Second Rulemug. An unofficial rule in restaurants that dictates that you have at least 30 seconds to pick up a dropped steak, or lobster etc. from the floor before it's considered contaminated.
Owner:"Hey where are you going with that steak?"
Employee: "It fell on
the floor so, I'm throwing it in the trash?"
Owner: "30 seconds rule, wash it off and put it back on the grill."

Get the 30 seconds rulemug. the 5 second rule isn't even true like the food when you drop it the bacterias get on it under literally one second
You: did you try to just catch your food under 5 seconds because the 5 second rule is not true
Friend: yea?
You: because if you even drop your food the bacterias get on it in under one second even if you wipe it

Get the three second rulemug. The amount of time before which certain individuals who have asked a dumb or inconsequential question will have either found the answer on his own, or have realized it wasn't worth asking.
Certain people are more susceptible to this rule than others. It's rare that they'll still be curious after 60 seconds have passed. Most of the time, ignoring their question does the trick.

Get the 60 second rulemug. when a male wakes up in the middle of the night and pees in the dark using the sound of splashing water or the side of the bowl as a guide
If you're missing the bowl by less than five seconds, you're OK and don't have to worry about cleaning up after yourself
