Shakespeare Rule

The Shakespeare Rule is a writing technique in which, much like the structure of any Shakespearean soliloquy, you summarise the general meaning of the paragraph in the last few lines.
"The Shakespeare Rule is a good method to experiment with"

"I overuse The Shakespeare Rule"

The Dorn Rule

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."

Brighton rules

If one of the group calls “Brighton rules”, then every pub seen on a route from location A to location B must be entered and a pint each consumed. Clarifications: must be a pint, and must be a pub as per the standard definition (no “bars”).
Ed’s called Brighton rules, keep an eye out for the next pub as we have to get a pint. And the one after that, and after that..
