I have done! :-B
My video walls are now punctuated with each of the 86 rules (+/- a dozen 
edits) on random rotation between the video clips. Much fun, the team loved it.

One of my custom additions (related to your gripe) was something like:
"
If you want your bourbon with Coke, say "and Coke". If you want it in a 
pre-mix bottle, say "in a bottle". It makes things easier in the long run.
"

... jeez, sometimes these plebs will even say "_Just_ a bourbon". Why bother 
saying "just" when you are in fact assuming that it always comes with bloody 
Coke?
