It's french. Probably.

quote:

The "never date anyone under half your age plus seven" rule is a rule of thumb sometimes used to prejudge whether an age difference is socially acceptable.[20][21][22] Although the origin of the rule is unclear, it is sometimes considered to have French origin.[20]

In earlier sources, the rule had a different interpretation than in contemporary culture, as it was understood as a formula to calculate ideal age for the bride, instead of a lower limit for the suitable age. Max O'Rell's Her Royal Highness Woman from 1901 gives the rule in the format "A man should marry a woman half his age, plus seven."[23] Similar interpretation is also present in the 1951 play The Moon Is Blue by F. Hugh Herbert.[24

Finished the Nonary game. It was super fun! We got to the final puzzle with 1 minute left on the clock and then died since 1 min is not enough for 3 teams to figure out a puzzle at the same time. Got a nice adrenaline rush solving puzzles though
