The unwritten rule that comes into effect when McDonald's temporarily changes the price of all fountain soft drinks to $1 for summer.
The rule states that one MUST purchase a large-sized drink, regardless of the situation. In theory, this is to avoid possible fear of needing to drink more and teasing. Some may even buy a large drink simply because they are afraid of not getting every penny's worth of soda.

Get the The Rule of So mug.It's getting harder and harder these days to determine whether or not a girl is old enough to be checking out. Girls from ages 15-21 can all look the same these days. If a girl is wearing a backpack(like a hello kitty one), chances are she's too young and you should look away before being called out for being a creeper. If she has no backpack than it's safe to look, but still be cautious if you choose to engage in conversation.
Benji- "That girl is cute but she looks like she might be young."
Joe- "Gotta use the backpack rule."
Benji -"What's the backpack rule?"
Joe- "If she's wearing a backpack she's too young."
*Hot girl walks in*
Joe- "See man, no backpack... she's fair game!"
Joe- "Gotta use the backpack rule."
Benji -"What's the backpack rule?"
Joe- "If she's wearing a backpack she's too young."
*Hot girl walks in*
Joe- "See man, no backpack... she's fair game!"

Get the backpack rule mug.To have sex with someone else after recently breaking up with your ex. The faster you move on, the faster you get over them. Like FedEx (fast shipping/movement, fast delivery).
As Jenna was heartbroken over her recent break-up, she applied the FedEx Rule to herself and was over her ex in a week.

Get the FedEx Rule mug.Invoking "The boosh rule" is a request to get back on task.
It originated during Run Amok recording sessions due to the natural tendency of the band and the producer to both get stuck talking about and quoting The Mighty Boosh for hours on end while they were supposed to be recording.
'The Boosh Rule' initially was a rule that was set to prevent this - no talking about The Mighty Boosh until you were finished tracking for the day.
In the time that has passed it has since spread and come to refer to any procrastination or lack of attention to the immediate task.

Get the the boosh rule mug.A calculus rule that defines whenever a math teacher inexplicably rearranges an equation in a way that makes no sense; i.e., the numbers move over yonder.
I was sitting in class when suddenly our teacher rearranged the equation without an explanation. I leaned over to my friend and whispered, “Wow, looks like this problem requires the yonder rule again.”
