The 50 Percent Rule

The 50 Percent Rule was first invented in spring 2016 by Swiss citizen K.E.

As opposed to state laws with a limited scope, it is described a universal moral in modern human behaviour.

It regulates the number of seats taken by a single guest in a restaurant, bar, café, eatery or diner.

You and your company may claim all the seats of a specific seating area (i.e. table or sofa space) if you make up for at least 50% of the total number of seats without the need to grant fellow guests access to the remaining seats.
A: "Hey man, can I take that seat?"

B: "No, sorry!"
A: "Why, is there anyone joining you? Or do you just need 4 seats for yourself?"
B: "There's nobody joining me. And now let me do my work!"
A: "Well, sir! Haven't you heard of the 50 Percent Rule!?"

eighty-five percenter

An individual who always ( or almost always ) eats only eighty-five percent of what most people would eat in each meal, in order to enjoy an easier and better digestion, not feel stuffed and continue feeling somewhat light, enjoy a perfect ( thus easy ) bowel movement the next day, and stay healthy, happy, and young.
30-years ago, Bonnie told me about remembering to only eat eighty-five percent of each meal. Now I do that about ninety-seven percent of the time. That makes me an eighty-five percenter.

For those who prefer not to start a sentence with a number,

the traditional format follows

10 Percent Rule

What should be taken from one who extremely over exaggerates the details of most things in order to acheive story dominance and self acclaim. Meaning 10 percent of what is presented is the truth, the other 90 percent is usually entertaining and a lie.
Philip said that the store was giving away $10,000 dollars at the end of the night, but I called and they said they were only giving $1000. I guess thats another one of those Philip "10 percent rule" exclamations.

twenty-seven percenters

1. People either genuinely crazy or so woefully misinformed about how the world works, the bases for their decision making is so flawed they may as well be crazy.
2. People with a worldview which lead them to disagree with what you consider rationality even though they arrive at their positions through rational means.
3. See also birther
Obama vs. Alan Keyes is proof. Keyes was from out of state, so you can eliminate any established political base; both candidates were black, so you can factor out racism; and Keyes was plainly, obviously, completely crazy. Batshit crazy. Head-trauma crazy. But the twenty-seven percenters in Illinois voted for him. They put party identification, personal prejudice, whatever ahead of rational judgement. Hell, even like 5% of Democrats voted for him. That's crazy behaviour. I think you have to assume a 27% Crazification Factor in any population.
