Grandma's Rule

The general guidelines use by parents, grandparents, and teachers to motivate children towards correct behavior. It is the principle that we will do what we don't want (i.e. exercise) in oder to be able to earn what we do want (i.e. eat more at the dinner party.) In the fields of Behavior and Psychology, this is known as the "Premack Principle." This is what happens when you tell your kids they can play video games after they finish their home-work.

93 Rule

"Anything higher than a 93 is inefficient."

Applies to the grading system where a 93% is for the purposes of GPA the equivalent of a 100%. Any grade higher than a 93% earns the same 'A' as a 93%, so the work done in getting, for example, a 95% was unnecessary. Traditionally used by students when they have a good grade and do not feel like doing their homework.

Coined at Madison-Grant High School at the end of the year 2012 by a student after days of meditation.
Michael's Mom: Have you finished your Spanish homework yet?
Michael: No
Michael's Mom: Then what makes you think you should be playing video games on a school night?
Michael: The 93 Rule. I have a 97% and there aren't enough points in the rest of the semester for me to not get an A.
Michael's Mom: I see. Carry on.
