Seven Minute Rule

The "Seven Minute Rule" states quite simply that if the meeting organizer has not joined the meeting within 7 minutes of the start time - the meeting is therefore officially cancelled.

It was designed by the British Upper Class to ensure punctuality and minimize time wasting.

With globalization and in particular the deterioration of Corporate Culture around the world - this rule is making a comeback and used throughout offices around the world

"Mark set this meeting up, and he's not here, by the Seven Minute Rule the meeting is cancelled and we can go to the beach!"

Rule 1969

For every cool thing in pop culture, there is a lesser, worse Christian version of it.

In the '80s, two of the most popular heavy metal groups were Black Sabbath and Judas Priest. At the same time Whitecross and Stryper were two Christian bands who were watered down, worse versions of heavy metal hereby confirming Rule 1969.

Rule of thumb

An approximate way of doing something based on presumptions rather than fact. Contrary to popular belief, the idea the law once allowed a husband to beat his wife as long as the device was no thicker than his thumb is false, as such assaults were outlawed for centuries in common law, although the ban wasn't generally codified in written law until the 1980s.

A driver kept going 5 mph over the speed limit, thinking the police had a rule of thumb that it was a waste of time to give out a ticket to anyone going anything lower than that.

Rule 2763

If it exists, there's an object show character or a objectified show of it. >:3 (BEEFYDIE REFERENCE???)

Rule 2763 is not a real internet rule btw. May be used as a joke or whatever.

Alejandro Rules

In tennis, this rule comes into play when you're leading by just one game and want to avoid the risk of losing. Under this rule, you play just one final game, with no possibility of losing. The result will either be a win or a tie. var: "Super Alejandro" rule: You're up by more than one game and can only win.

Momentum changed and I won 4 in a row to get within one game, but my opponent invoked Alejandro Rules and it ended in a tie.
