17 Rules That Nobody Talks About, But Everyone Follows

People fall into habits, which become customs, and then eventually become unwritten rules. Some drive you crazy, while others make perfect sense. Above you see an example of "driving without thinking." You try to pass, and the other driver thinks, "Oh! I didn't realize I was going nine miles under  the speed limit!" But they still don't think of waiting for the faster car to pass first. That would make too much sense. You've probably done that at one time or another, although you may not have been aware of it at the time.



As silly as it may seem, there's good reason to always face the door when riding on an elevator. How else are you going to press the button or know what floor the elevator is stopping on? There are 15 other unwritten rules, both senseless and perfectly understandable, at Cracked.

#17, if it's a brownie or cake then that last piece will be cut in half several times, always leaving something. #16 was not written by an engineer, scientist, or other people who live by graphs. Their audience is more likely to wrinkle their brows as they try to figure out it. #13, after years of marriage and a kid? Nope. #12 would be my bookcase as nearly all the movies I watch are online. #9, "#notallmen", plus, prime source of comedy material for decades, #2 they are aliens who have been deceived by Earthlings, see https://youtu.be/g3WtvzmKCQQ?t=92 .

Most of these are just being polite. Then there is the stupid one about the elevator. If one do not turn around, how does the correct button get pushed?
