The Griff Rule is not an actual user. griffrule was a user on the platform TikTok, and would frequently use “#griffrule”. But there are 2 definitions:

1. The “griff rule” is a social experiment proven that people will only come to another person / help them when the situation is beneficial.
2. A rule a person sets for themself to only express their feelings which aren’t positive on social media.
1. “I saw a homeless person ask for money, no one gave him any. But there was a Dunkin’ giving away the extra donuts since they were closing.”
“It’s the griff rule, man.”

2. “You never really told me you’re upset in real life, yet you vent a lot on TikTok. Is everything OK?”
“No. I just follow the griff rule, can’t tell anyone I’m too close with personally, you know.”
