The Chick Code...in response to The Bro Code, a concept pioneered by Barney Stinsen, played by Niel Patrick Harris, of the sitcom How I Met Your Mother, Kylie, aka QueenOfWeird1995, on FanFiction.net, spoofed it to the tune of 140 articles, of which my favorites aaaaaaaare:

Article 15: A Chick never dances stupidly nor too slutty. Exception: when a Chick is drunk or under the pretense of being drunk.

Article 19: A Chick respects Chicks in the military because they've selflessly chosen to defend the nation, but more the point, because they can totally kick your ass when you comment on how camouflage print doesn't look good on them or their tragic haircut.

Article 25: If two Chicks are wearing the same outfit, each retains the right to "accidentally" spill a drink on the other.

Article 36: When the situation arises where a Chick spies another Chick with fake breasts while with her bf, then comments on it, a Chick always has the right to read between the lines at the bf's reaction comment (aka catching him staring at her breasts-but at least give him a few brownie points if he decries the silicon masses).

Article 51: A Chick checks out another Chick's blind date and reports back, though the Chick going on the blind date is obligated to still go on the date and give the guy a chance even if the report is bad.

Article 54: A Chick is required to go out with her mother on Mother's Day, and her Side-Chicks on Halloween, New Year's Eve, Boxing Day, Black Friday, and Desperation Day (February 13th).

Article 59: A Chick always brings a jailed Chick the necessities ("necessities" may vary in definition for each individual, so be sure to know what the jailed Chick would appreciate).

Article 76: A Chick reserves the right to be a bit miffed should her bf act differently toward her around his Bros, but will only confront him when the Bros have all gone away. Because Chicks are courteous.

Article 79: At a wedding, a Chick shall be excited about the bouquet catch, even if she isn't, for the sake of the bride.

Article 96: Chicks shall swear off men at least once a year, for the sake of feminism. Or because of douche bags.

Article 125: If a Chick lends another Chick a DVD, article of clothing, CD, or anything else, she shall expect to get it back and will hold it against the borrowing Chick in the occurrence of an argument.
