Referring to the required distance from one's spouse to engage in guilt-free extra-maraital sex and/or to not be considered infidelity.
It is not reccommended to verify spouse's endorsement of such rule but rather follow it discreetly and only reference it as a matter of last resort.

Susie Employee: "Mr. Anderson, I didn't come to this conference to have sex with you, anyway we're both married!
Mr. Anderson: "But Susie, thats the only reason I brought you here and anyway it's okay, it's not cheating because we are well beyond the Fifty-mile rule!"

A list of rules devised to make certain that landmark nights out are as legendary (i.e. everybody well and truly lashed) as possible. They are as follows:
1. The word "Drink" and any of its derivatives such as "Drank" or "Drinking" etc, may not be used.
2. Glasses should be held with the off-hand (left hand for a right-hander) with the pinkie raised off the glass.
3. Glasses should rest a safe distance from the table's edge, usually about 2 inches at least.
4. No pointing at anyone - this is just plain rude.
5. Empty glasses should be replaced immediately by a new beverage.
6. Vessels which are non-conducive to downing i.e. bottles must be replaced with glasses.
7. Every person must keep a copy of their rules on an A4 sheet at all times
8. Nobody shall refer to another by their first name, only by surnames, nicknames or by "oi, you" etc.
9. The toilet-master must be asked permission whenever a person needs to go to the john. He'll almost always grant it.
10. The thumb-master can at any point place their thumb on the drinking surface. Everybody else must follow suit, until there is one person who hasn't.
11. The pose-master is similar to the thumb-master, however others must follow suit when they strike a pose (could be anything from a frown to an impression of Michaelangelo's David) until one person hasn't.
12. Weights-and-measures master determines forfeits for rule-breaking individuals.
Failure to comply with rules 2, 3 or 6 results in the downing of the rule-breaker's current drink. Failure to comply with rules 1, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 results in a forfeit determined by the weights-and-measures master.
At the end of the night, everybody in the party must make a paper plane out of their copy of the rules. Then everybody will take it in turns to throw their plane. The owner of the plane which travels least furthest must undergo a major forfeit, decided by the weights-and-measures master. So too must people who have lost their rules.

Length of time available for a spouse or live-in mate to notice a newly purchased item before the purchaser can claim that the item has been there forever. The item must be conspiculously placed, and cannot be hidden. Good Luck!
I bought a new guitar, snuck it in the house and put it in the stand with the rest. Since Janie didn't notice for two weeks, the "48-hour" rule had lapsed so I could claim it had been there the whole time.

The most over-rated football game in the world. Skinny weak 'men' fumbling a football around for 2 hours. No skill. No courage. No toughness. No contact, It's called 'Aussie Rules' by its southern fans. Everyone else in Australia calls it 'Pussie Rules' or 'Netball with kicking'. Give it a miss.
Watched netball? Add kicking and that is what you have. 'Aussie Rules'. Netball with kicking. A girls game.

The three second rule is as follows: When you walk into the room where the girl you are interested in is or when she arrives in the vicinity you must initiate conversation within three seconds so to convey spontaneous thought. If you do not follow it and initiate conversation after a couple of minutes she may be less talkative and less attracted by your likely prepared speech. Even if you come out with some shit it will likely be better than preparing something to say. She'll probably be able to tell.
*Shit here she is, here goes*.."eh Hey you're looking fine today girl..where have you been i've not seen you since yesterday"
"yeah! I was at my boyfriend's house"
"oh, ok, eh, *wtf nooo!* - eh, what u been up to then?"
"yeah! I was at my boyfriend's house"
"oh, ok, eh, *wtf nooo!* - eh, what u been up to then?"
