no spoiler rule

An unwritten rule which involves people telling others NOT to spoil the events which would go on in either a movie, TV show, video game or anything else that entertains a person. It soon became really popular in social media through memes, posts, videos & etc.

It was a no spoiler rule which prompted my refusal to watch"Avengers: Endgame" simply because I feared people would cause problems if I was to break it.

Prison City Rules

In small press publishing that's code:

No erotic content, but other than that NO HOLDS BARRED

The Ethereal Gazette was noted for it's STRICT house rules rivaling the mentality of the Duggar household but aspects that differ as he defined to another who was doing anthologies, another editor knew the rules he coined -- other publishing imprints know this as Prison City Rules. No erotic content but no holds barred. Rule out sexual content but time the swearing, go for subject matter that's ideologically sensitive and able to address social issues when pulling this off. The Issue Five roster embodied the Prison City Rules approach.

Rule of 3

The Latin phrase “omne trium perfectum” means that every set of three is complete. A Creative Pragmatist will apply this to outfit composition; when you have selected three key items, the destination has been reached.

Person 1: I think i’m missing something, my outfit doesn’t feel complete.

Person 2: You’re not thinking of the Rule of 3, you need to have 3 components in an outfit and you only have 2. Try a pop of color for your shoe!

Sole Speaking Officer Rule

Sole Speaking Officer Rules are common sense policing reforms that require that only one police officer present at an encounter with a suspect be allowed to give orders to that suspect. This is particularly important to limit the escalation of tense police encounters where a suspect struggles with trying to comply with contradictory commands shouted at him by multiple officers. If you watch recorded encounters between debilitated and scared suspects and law enforcement, a trend you will often see is one where several officers respond, each shouting orders at the suspect, (often when pointing firearms at them) that conflict with each other. Sole Speaking Officer Rules seek to reduce injury and death by requiring that law enforcement conduct themselves in a more professional manner that does not frustrate and confuse suspects that are willing to comply.

We need Sole Speaking Officer Rules adopted by more police departments.
