The belief that in a relationship, you'll never get 100% of what you want, so at most you get 80%. But some other person may come along and have that missing 20% you don't have. Some folks fall for the 20% just to realize they should've stayed for their original 80%. C/O Tyler Perry's "Why Did I Get Married?"
"Damn, my co-worker is so HOT and incredibly funny!"
"Think about the 80/20 rule, Becky. Think about it."
"Dawg! She is baaaad...34/22/36. Damn i would so hit that..."
"Whoa man; 80/20 rule dawg. Lisa is a good wife..."

The 86-20 rule states that 86% of all income taxes are paid by the top earning 20% of the taxpayers.
Fuck poor people...don't they understand the 86-20 rule?

An ominous trend in American history, wherein each president elected into office during a year divisible by 20, starting with Abraham Lincoln, has suffered an assassination attempt. Some have been successful, as with Lincoln and John F. Kennedy, though most have failed.
George W. Bush, who was elected in 2000, may or may not have invoked this rule already. On May 10, 2005, in Tbilisi, Georgia (the country, not the American state), a man named Vladimir Arutinian threw a live grenade at W. Due to the handkerchief tied around it, however, it failed to detonate. Alternatively, the rule could have been invoked years earlier by a pretzel.
"When is someone going to invoke the 20 Year Rule again? It's getting close to crunch time, you know."

After a guy finishes it takes him 20 minutes to get it up again.
Jess: "Is the 20 minute rule up yet?"
Josh: "No."

The rule guys refer to when they think about cheating on their wives/girlfriends.
Their wife/girlfriend is the 80%: she cooks, cleans, gives him all her loving, and has decent sex. But it's never 100%.
The girl he wants to cheat on her with is the 20%: she's very pretty, has a great body, and is perfect at sex. However, she's a slob/druggie/junky/alchy.
(Seen in Tyler Perry's "Why Did I Get Married?")
Bill: "I don't know, man. My wife's just not cutting it in the sex department, ya know?"
Joe: "20/80 rule, dude... think about it..."

The rule which gives you legal right to leave your place of employment when 20 minutes has transpired since your boss has left the building.
"Dude, my boss just left!! 20 MINUTE RULE is in effect!"

Any computer application must respond to input within twenty-seconds or the person using it will think that the software is broken and begin pressing the "Any Key" to elicit a response.
Internet latency is not an excuse for failure to respond; c'mon, even satellite links have less than 20 second latency.
The iPhone has a 20-second rule start-up timer; if an application takes longer than 20 seconds to start up, it is killed by the iPhone OS. Also, the iPhone OS will kill any application that is unresponsive for longer than 20 seconds.
Usually seen on poorly built web pages that rely on over-taxed advertising servers.
Also violated by Windows OS during the boot process where it waits a whole freaking minute for network connections that are never connected to time out.
