What is "The Code"
alltherage's drinking thread made me think about this. So me and my friends all have certain unspoken codes that must be followed at all times.
The Shoe Rule (short version): Pass out with your shoes on, you're fair game for markers, duct tape, the whole kit and kaboodle. Shoes off? Untouchable. It's a rule
Wingman rule: If you enter the wingman zone, it is a dick move to exit it. There while your buddy is the first to start up with the hot girl? Well, you're now obligated to play wingman. You can search to score on your own as well, but you must play interference on the Mother Hen friend. Always.
Beer Karma: Don't always be the guy who doesn't buy. It's just lame. We don't care if you've been unemployed for 6 months. Jump in the unspoken rotation and pitch for some PBR you cheap bastich.
Oh crap the cops rule: If everyone else is having fun, consult at least one member of the group before starting a riotous brawl with the guy who is "crazy eyeing" you. Yes, we've got your back, but not if you're the ######. When you're the ######, it's your problem.
Anyone else have basic rules like this? They don't have to be drinking related, just seems that's all my friends and I do.
Edit: Left out an important one. If someone's fly is down, that's their problem. You didn't see anything.
