Get the airport rulesmug. Rule that is put into effect on certain social occasions that require multiple people to split a bill that could potentially cause complications. Someone must state ahead of time that the Broadhurst rule is "in effect" or else no one can be expected to observe it. When the rule is in effect, everyone attending the event must bring cash so no debit or credit cards have to be thrown onto the table in a massive, confusing pile. If someone forgets to observe the rule, they must pay for the whole bill with their card or leave right away at the beginning of the event.
You and 5 friends are going out to dinner to celebrate someone's birthday, ahead of time you state that the Broadhurst rule is "in effect" everyone except your friend Wayne brings cash to split the bill. Wayne now has to pay for the whole bill.

Get the The Broadhurst Rulemug. Referring to the lackadaisical approach of shortstop Roger Dorn from the movie Major League, the phrase is used to show one's lack of desire to initiate the romantic or sexual pursuit of another individual while simultaneously indicating that one would still be receptive if said individual was to him/herself initiate the pursuit.
"Hey, why don't you go after that one chick? She's kinda cute"
"Meh. She's on The Dorn Rule"
"What do you mean?"
"If it comes at me, I'll catch it. But I'm not going to dive for it."

Get the Makelele rulemug. very conservative way of playing madden, punting on all 4th downs. Kicking field goals if within 20 yards. Many squib kicks towards the end of the game or half. Taking QB Knee to run the clock out. Never throwing the ball into traffic, constantly throwing it out of bounds. Slides with the player who is running with the ball to avoid risk of fumble. All in all, just playing the game in a way that makes you an absolute fucko.
