Time you should wait before interjecting your opinion when walking up on two (or more) people in a conversation.
John and Fred were talking about Gun control, and Mike walked up and said that "Obama is going to take your guns away", but if he had waited 5 minutes he would have known they weren't talking about gun control at all, but how to shoot a gun. John says, "5 minute rule" and then everyone understand, he shouldn't have gotten into this conversation at this point. (And looked like an idiot).

A variation of the 5 second rule, which dictates that food dropped into an awkward or uncomfortable place is still edible if retrieved within five minutes. Often conceived to be a more chivalrious instead of just plain ol' disgusting, especially if a man retrieves food dropped by a woman and eats it himself, replacing her loss with something that didn't touch the floor. It is also a more applicable rule than the 5-second variation when the moment of dropping the food is particularly ironic and demands a short pause for the appreciation of the twistedness of the world.
