Rule #1,095

If you're ever trying to puzzle out the deeper meaning of an image next to a rule, remember Meta-Rule #3 (aka Rule #522).

Rule #1,045

I don't have to write a rule on my birthday if I don't want to.

Rule #978

Depressing rules are depressing.

Rule #749

Sometimes rules have to be broken to say what you want to say.

Rule #526 (End of Meta-Rule Week)

Meta-Rule #7:

Despite what Rule #332 says, there are no exceptions to the Meta-Rules.

Rule #525

Meta-Rule #6:

While a lot of rules stem from personal experience, I need not necessarily have experienced something to have written a rule about it.

Rule #524

Meta-Rule #5:

If a day of updating is missed for some reason, space/time will be bent so that a rule is still posted that same day by 11:59 PM.

Rule #523

Meta-Rule #4:

Although the rules are typically posted at 12:01 AM, a rule is not late unless it doesn't go up by 11:59 PM.

Rule #522

Meta-Rule #3:

Pictures corresponding to rules don't have to make sense, and are merely a further distraction from our mostly empty and ultimately meaningless existence.

Rule #521

Meta-Rule #2:

Rules should be easily understood and difficult to misinterpret.

Rule #520 (Beginning of Theme Month & Meta-Rule Week)

I hope you enjoyed my Guest Month a while back, because I've decided to do the same thing, but with Theme Rules. So, to kick things off, let's have a week suggested by the very brainy Brint Montgomery: Meta-Rule Week (Rules about Rules).

Meta-Rule #1:

Rules should be short (i.e. no longer than a couple of sentences).
