Man Law

[M-i-t-c-h]

These are the laws of "MAN" and have to be obeyed by in order to keep man status.

1. No wasted beer in the name of humor.

2. It has been made official that under no circumstances should the male have to pay for birth control

3. If your best friend is dumped by a girl it is a 6 month waiting period till she can be touched. If he breaks up with her it’s a 6 day waiting period.

4. If two or more males arrived at a party by a single car, and the driving male is hooking up with a girl, it is the responsibility of the other males to find other ways home.

(The exception to this law is if the driver is hooking up with his own girlfriend, the law is then void and the driver still holds full responsibility of driving his friend’s home)

5. Short shorts have been banned… Unless in a participating in a sporting event that demands shorter shorts. Also no real man should be allowed to pop his collar.

6. Every man shall allow one empty urinal of separation in a bathroom with three or more urinals; law is void if there are dividers in between each urinal.

7. If a girl and a guy are not officially dating then it can't be considered cheating. However...if the guy cheats with a girl that is less attractive to the one he is originally interested in then he is either... A) Drunk or Dumbass. This then gives the original girl the right to either get mad or laugh at you.

8. No one should ever steal a man's alcohol from that man's cooler...this is the only law that suffers the penalty of death.

9. When bringing condoms to a party it is a man's responsibility to pack two in his pockets and one in his car as a spare incase a friend is in desperate need.

10. No heavy fornication in a friend's bed. Or just wash the sheets.

11. No man shall every use a rolling backpack. If you can't carry the bag then you’re not a man.

12. If another man's fly is down, you didn't see anything and may not make a comment about it.

13. When a man is borrowing a buddies tool or other equipment, if the borrower puts any scratches or brings it back with any noticeable wear, then he is required to do one of the following: If the item costs under 50 bucks, you are required to replace it. If the item costs over 50 bucks, you are required to give him a case of beer, because hey...who wants to spend more than 50 bucks on something that isn't yours.

14. When your friend picks up a hot girl...however the hot girl has an ugly friend...it is only right that you operate as a wing man doing whatever it is you got to do to help your buddy have some time alone with the hot girl. As men we are obligated to sacrifice and pay it forward for each other knowing that the favor will one day be replayed.

15. When calling shotgun, all riders of the car must be outside, and shotgun can only be called when the car is in view. Riders in the car are not allowed to run to shotgun and steal it before the person who called and deserves it arrives there. The driver of the car has no authority to decide on who gets shotgun. If a legitimate confrontation comes up where the rightful owner of the shotgun can not be determined then it will be decided by one round of paper rock scissors (with no shoot). If the two contenders tie 5 times in a row then the rightful owner of the shotgun is to be decided by a UFC cage match in which the first blood drawn decides the rightful owner of shotgun.

Addendum to Man Law No. 15:

If at any point during the process of determining the shotgun rider a hot girl hints that she would like to sit up front the driver has the sole right to declare her the shotgun rider and depending upon the situation may even deny rides to all other passengers. However, if said hot girl is an ex of any passenger they may overrule the driver's decision and make her ride in the back. Additionally, if all passengers happen to be female then revert back to original method of deciding shotgun rider substituting mud wrestling for UFC cage match. The winner then gets either a cold water hose down or shotgun the next ride unless the car is really shitty and the owner doesn’t care about muddy seats.

16. It is PAPER, ROCK, and SCISSORS with no shoot. If you must say shoot, it has to be agreed upon by both men and a witness has to be present and somewhat sober.

17. When toasting with beers you clank with the bottom.

18. You poke it you own it.

19. The head nod is an acceptable way to greet another guy when simply walking past. No words are needed to be said. An upward nod is for friends, a downward nod is for fellow men.

20. If a man is on vacation to a state that does not border his own, or any other country, it is not considered cheating if he so chooses to engage in sexual activity with a girl other than his girlfriend. Although he should be fully aware that his girlfriend may not see eye to eye if she was to ever find out.

21. A man should not masturbate more than 3 times in a day to insure being ready for any unknown or known late night action. Assisting Girls does not count… rule is in exception if male party is in a bet to set a record of number of times in a day.

22. A man shall never wear any article of women's clothing (I.E … Girls Jeans/Pants!) unless they are the loser of such a bet… or if a man is figuratively in a girls pants… (Or any other article of clothing).

23. No man in any circumstance, unless mocking a violator of this law, should pop his collar.

24. A man should never be denied the right to adjust himself or place his hands down his pants under any circumstances.

25. Being a Pirate should be considered a Manly job because pirates get two types of booty.

26. All men must eat meat. A shitload of meat. If not borderline carnivore. For no reason should a man ever be a vegetarian, or eat sick shit like tofu. Also no man should consume any food with the terms "diet", "fat free", or any other healthy suggesting terms for the sake of "watching his weight" or dieting.

27. Every man is required to learn some form of Poker before he dies.

28. If a man ever does something wrong a simple "OOPS", "My Bad", or any variations of cuss words that get the point across will suffice, no need to say "I'm Sorry"

29. No man should ever hook up with his best friend's girl, no matter how hot she is. This is in effect while they are dating or "together." If they are separated refer to Law 3 for the proper way to handle the situation. (Side Advice: Less guilt is involved if she comes on to you.

30. under no circumstance should any one man cockblock another mans attempt at getting some tang. Let’s just leave that up to the tangs fat friend. Please note that cockblocking will result in a suspension of your Man status and its privileges, and will result in the title Manbitch.

31. Every man should watch sports center at least once a day, though multiple viewings are recommended so that one can hold his own in any debate on sports that may arise that day.

32. Under no circumstances shall any man lay a hand on a female or a child in violence. Spanking of a woman's ass or pulling of the hair is permitted if done on request. Corporal punishment is permitted excluding obvious extremes. Punishment for the attacking male is that if other men see the assault taking place they having the right to take him out back behind a building and show him how to fight with real men. In this situation more than one man may be used in the attacking of said woman beater because he clearly doesn’t mind an unfair fight seeing as he was hitting a lady or a child to begin with. A call to the police is a very last resort and should only be used is said male is over 6' 5" 250lb. or an ufc cage fighter. A kick to the crotch is only called for in cases of rape. If it is merely a guy beating a woman, defenseless child, or elderly people then a legitimate beating is called for, but no shots to the crotch. If it is a case of rape however, multiple shots to the crotch are called for. The punishment must fit the crime and since rape is using that area of the body, it is ok to inflict damage to it (Cameron Ross, Nick Polyzos, Kristina Brockmann, and Drew Westerfield).

33. If a woman is present whether family or friend no man under any circumstances shall make their own food or pour their own drinks unless it is a special holiday such as, Mother's day, Birthday's, or St. Patrick's day or if the woman cannot keep up with the pace you want your drink poured. Law is void if significant grilling is involved.

34. No man shall ever watch a soap opera ever! Period! If this law is broken, it will result in the lowering of status from man to Manbitch and the questioning of the liking of opposite gendered relationships.

35. Women can't drive.

36. In the court of Man Law the statement "I was Drunk" will have the same effect as an insanity plea (reduced punishment) in standard court provided the defendant's blood alcohol level exceeds .10.

37. If any male is caught violating a Man Law in serious context, as a form of punishment he should be disowned of his manly name, only to receive the title of "Manbitch" from his peers and colleagues. Forgiveness is pending the severity of the broken law...or a case of beer to all his offended peers as a token of respect to what is manly...and what is not.

38. Any man that is old enough and is not in the army should at least support the troops, even if you don’t agree with the war they are your country men fighting to protect you and you should show them your support

39. No more crushing of empty beer cans or your forehead. Modern, thinner cans make the feat less impressive than with cans of years past.

"100. A friend must be permitted to borrow anything you own - grill, car, firstborn child - within 12 hr notice. Women or anything considered "lucky" are not applicable in this case."

Bit to add: Permission may only be given if you agree that the item can be borrowed, and item must be borrowed for an agreed time.

If said item if borrowed for longer than the agreed time, then some sort of payment is required. e.g. Beer, unlimited time for borrowing, money, etc.

Yeah?

[El Cristoff]

115. The International Drinking Rules (also sometimes called the Standard Rules, or Gentlemen's Rules of Imbibage) may be used during any drinking game, or social gathering whose participants are aware of the rules. Additionally, these rules may be added to other drinking games which allow players to add custom rules (Such as when a 1&2 are rolled in Three man). The rules are intentionally complex, and may be made more complex at will, such being the delightful benefit of arbitrary games.

There are a large number of variants on the rules but common ones can be divided into subcategories. Bear in mind that not all of the following rules are used in all cases, so it is generally up to the President or a person of some other position of authority to give a brief description of the rules that are to apply.[citation

Verbal restrictions

Nobody may utter the word "drink" or any of its forms (drank, drunk, drinking, etc.)

Other banned classes of word may include body parts or less sophisticated vernacular terms (example: one may "imbibe two digits of ale", but one may not "drink two fingers of beer").

Nobody may use another player's name

Some versions of the rules allow the use of title and surname (e.g. "Mr. Tritton", but not "Sam"), but most disallow the use of any legal name or nickname

Nobody may swear, blaspheme or sully Her Majesty The Queen

When accusing someone of breaking the rules, formal address must be used (example: "Forfeit, Mr. Smith, vulgar language" in the event of John Smith using the word "drink")

Players may also be required to utter a particular phrase before they consume, for example Social Security Number, Telephone number, Yarrrr! (Like a pirate), I'm a Little Teapot Ziggy socky, ziggy socky, hoi hoi hoi!, I'm as STRONG AS THE BEAR! or say "in my pants" at the end of every sentence

If at any time one person asks another person a question, the answer must be a question. The answer in question must also, in turn, include the actual answer to the original question. EXAMPLE: JOE: "Those are nice sunglasses, where'd you get 'em?" JOHN: "The Mall has great sunglasses, have you been there lately?"

Physical restrictions

No player may point at another player.

Most versions only disallow pointing with a finger - elbows are a popular alternative

Some versions also disallow use of the aforementioned P word; 'oint' is the common variant

No pinkie finger may touch a glass (beverages must be swigged with the pinkie extended)

Players must "tap out" when intending to leave the table, by tapping twice on the Designated Drinking Surface

All glasses on the Designated Drinking Surface must be placed at least an index finger's length from the edge of the Surface; offending glasses must be emptied of their contents by the culprit for health and safety reasons

Players must remove the "Little Green Man" (leprecorns) (who is invisible) from the top of their glass before they drink, and return him to his perch after they are done.

Save The Queen: should a penny be dropped into a beverage, its owner must shout "God Save the Queen!" and consume the entire contents of the vessel as quickly as is humanly possible, in order to prevent the Sovereign's image on the coin from "drowning". Often the other persons present will be expected to stand, remove any headgear and sing the national anthem until the imbiber has finished the beverage.

The use of a mobile telephone (voice or text) is strictly prohibited and will result in a forfeit. This may include forfeits for incoming calls/texts as well as outgoing

Forfeits

The penalty for breaking a rule is inevitably to drink a hearty swig of ale (or agreed equivalent). The usual measure is two digits, although this can be increased at the discretion of Mr Weights and Measures. An extension of this (known as Prisoner's Rules) is that one or both of those sitting directly next to the rule breaker must also drink the penalty. More severe crimes against etiquette can incur the finishing of one's current drink, the purchase and consumption of an entirely new drink, or harsher still, the finishing of one's current drink followed immediately by the complete consumption of a subsequent drink.[citation needed]

Falsely accusing another player of breaching etiquette is considered extremely bad form, and concordantly often results in a harsh punishment.

These are my personal edited easier rules, there are more on Wiki but these are the rules that should ALWAYS be obided by, the other rules are optionanal at the house owners / organisers discression
