A rule for raffle prizes, that if an individual already owns an item for raffle, that individual cannot win it. This is usually confirmed by showing proof of non-ownership upon winning the raffle prize.
Pocky broke the Joe Z Rule. He won the raffle for mooncakes, but already had aftermarket wheels on his car.

Get the Rule 32mug. Once you meet a girl and she offers you steady pussy. If she starts folding your laundry and gets to the tenth towel then she feels like she owns the place and you send her ass packing. Thus, the ten towel rule.
Spend a month with a girl. Once she starts folding laundry you must implement the ten towel rule. Once she folds the tenth towel that's when you find a new ho.

Get the Ten Towel Rulemug. The rule amongst honorable men of certain western cultures (New England Boarding Schools) which states that a human and his or her partner must go out on exactly three dates before being formally considered a couple. If the possible couple-to-be has gone out on three dates, still unsure of if they wish to be formally considered a couple or not, the 3rd Date Rule dictates that the pair must make their decision then. Finally, the 3rd date rule states that an honorable person does not ask the same partner on three dates in a row without intention to belong to them and them alone or can otherwise be considered to be “leading them on.”
Guy 1; Hey man, I don't know when to ask this girl when to like, be my gilfriend so we are officialy going out. What is the custom as to when I should do that?

Get the Over sea's rulemug. The ten year ruler is a rough estimation of the amount of time a style will remain popular.
The rule states that what is popular will change roughly every decade, give or take a year or two.
One important thing to note about the rule is that the style in question is always what is referred to as the "counterculture". The prime fashion will always be the preppy brands of clothing. It's what attempts to rival that which truly changes.
Most of the past decades have followed the ten year rule. The most accurate timeline starts with the 60s.
60s.- The prime of the "hippie movement" (counterculture). Recreational drugs and music festivals, among most other things associated with the hippies was popular.
70s.- Bell bottoms, a new breed of hippie (less active in political activism and movements).
80s.- Big hair, tight pants, leather. Hair bands and power ballads ruled the airwaves.
90s.- Grunge. Dirty, unkempt, rugged, rude.
2000- Emos. Tight clothes, black mid length hair, emo bands.
