An unwritten law dictating that if a food or other consumable item is dropped onto the floor, it may be picked up up and eaten within five seconds. The reasoning behind this is that dirt and germs take six seconds to transfer from one surface to another.
"Oops, dropped my popsicle. Five second rule!"

Get the 5 second rule mug.A person can't discuss the virtues of water boarding in the press or on TV until they themselves have been water boarded. Named after the late journalist Christopher Hitchens who had himself water boarded to experience the torture method so that he could discuss it with better insight.
A person would invoke the Hitchens Rule in social media when someone who has not been the subject of water boarding, begins to describe it in glowing terms, or that the act is not actually torture.
