Ha, what I mean is that most unwritten rules are based on social behavior and are things that everyone should follow (usually based on courtesy and/or common sense). They're things that are known (or should be known) by everyone.
Yes, some are up for debate, but I wouldn't consider eating the bottom part of a cupcake first to be an "unwritten rule."
But maybe that's just my own special interpretation of an unwritten rule.
