Diamond Rule

The Diamond Rule is a behavioural philosophy developed by Drew McPherson and is a key part of his Equilism project. It is similar to the Golden Rule but with a crucial difference which is designed to add diversity tolerance. The Diamond Rule instructs one to "Treat others as they wish to be treated". It is critically important to understand that not everyone wishes to be treated in the same way. This becomes more evident with life forms of greater diversity. Accepting diverse preferences, and not assuming that everyone will have the same preferences as yourself is a key cultural norm to instill in order to eliminate diversiphobia.

When you assumed that EllEn wanted to be treated the same as you, you were failing to follow the Diamond Rule which acknowledges that EllEn may have difference preferences than yourself.

Creep Rule

A person's a creep if the age difference between them and their date is greater than half the eldest's current age, plus 7. For example, if a guy is 30, the youngest person he can date without being considered a creep is 15+7=22; younger than that, society looks at the couple sideways.

Dude, you're 45 and dating a 20 year-old? You're a creep!!!! Creep rule is half-your age + 7, my friend. You should date my cousin instead, she's 30 and a freak in bed.

The 5 Rule

There's at least 5 girls you would have sex with in a room. Not date or take home to mom, just 5 girls that if it came down to it, or a lot of booze clouded your judgement, you would.

"Dude I walked into class and the 5 rule applies!"

"Nice bra!"

MelRonDrew Rule

Forecasting after 12 Noon on a Friday requires hazard pay, additional PTO time, and one BT Travel Workbook skip for the following year.

Damn, I really wanted to NOT have a headache all weekend, but they made me forecast on Friday afternoon. I invoked the MelRonDrew Rule, so I guess it will pay off in the long run though.

Rod Rules

Noun: It’s when someone makes up rules or tell them when it’s the most convenient for him as the game progress.

Him: you can’t collect 200$ after passing go if you just went to jail.
You: that’s total bullshit, you just made that rule.
Everyone else: another one of your Rod Rules I presume?
