cryteria

1. A set of rules or standards that determine whether something warrants turning on the ol' saline-solution glands about.
2. A set of rules or standards that are so tedious/picky/demanding that it would drive you to turning on the ol' saline-solution glands in stress/exhaustion/frustration.

Ethan Couch --- and by extension, his absurdly-indulgent father, who offered to actually buy da school so dat his Little Prince could be coddled da way he preferred --- seemed to view da standard school-rules as being "cryteria" merely because they required him to behave himself and treat da staff and his classmates in a reasonable and decent manner.
