First Guy: So, what do you want to do?
Second Guy: Still no ideas.
First guy: Wait, I think there's a rule about this.
[[First Guy goes to bookshelf and removes a book called "Rules"]]
[[The book of Rules is opened to the following:
RULE social.b.99.1
If friends spend more than 60 minutes unable to decide what to do, they must default to sexual experimentation.]]
[[First Guy is standing, holding the book. Second Guy is in the process of standing up.]]
First Guy: Huh.
Second Guy: I did not know that rule.
First Guy: Me neither.
Second Guy: I'll go get the Crisco.
{{alt-text: Hey, I don't make the rules. It's in the book.}}
