Get the Rule 77mug. An expression that was used in How I Met Your Mother.
It's a warning that is trying to avoid dating with people you have to work with, be in the classroom or people employed in your favorite pub, gym, club... Or a friendship with your new neighbours.
Platinum rule has 8 steps.
Step 1: Attraction - it's so easy to surrender.
Step 2: Bargaining - the time when you try to persuade your friends that platinum rule doesn't apply on you.
Step 3: Submission - everyhing seems alright.
Step 4: Perks - like: we can be together all the time - but that's crazy...
Step 5: The Tipping Point - now you realize that maybe it was a big mistake.
Step 6: Purgatory - now you know for sure that it was a big mistake.
Step 7: Confrontation - time to end the relationship or friendship. Normally starting with words: Well, I really like you but ...
Step 8: Fallout - because it's a person that you have to work with you must face the consequences connected to what happend between you.
Maybe there is also Step 9: Rescue - everything should be ok since this point.

Get the Platinum rulemug. Fictional rules invented by girls to confused guys, during a relationship. Generally, these rules contradict eachother, and it is impossible to follow them correctly.
There is the common "statement" form, encountered when an action is illegal:
"John! You moved my lettuce to shelf four of the refridgerator! that is so against the rules!"
Also common is the "impossible question" form, where no correct answer is possible:
"Tim. Does this dress make me look fatter than normal?"
"Do you know what day it is today?"
Rare, but still worth mentioning, is the "invented" form:
"This form was invented to fill up some space on the page"
"John! You moved my lettuce to shelf four of the refridgerator! that is so against the rules!"

Get the dating rulesmug. Rules of the Internet is a list of protocols and conventions, originally written to serve as a guide for those who identified themselves with the Internet group Anonymous. The list serves as a summation of popular catchphrases and axioms commonly associated with 4chan. Since there are numerous drafts and editions in circulation, the rules fluctuate in number and the validity of each rule remains debatable. Despite this, several of the rules including Rule 34 and Rule 63 are agreed upon across internet communities.
The idea of making a set of rules, similar to Netiquette for 4chan users, was initially talked about on Anonymous-related IRC channels before an entry was submitted to Encyclopedia Dramatica sometime in late 2006 and archived on January 10th, 2007. The entry was highly debated on its discussion page as well as the site’s forums. At the time of the archival, there were 18 rules in the entry, despite it mentioning that 48 existed.
