It's true!! I push my car to work every day. (screwy)

 

[clownphish]

I know, some of these are really out there. I get things like this for all different places in my e-newsletter all the time. People are really wacky.

 

[GHOSTWHISPER]

I wish they had the house paint thing here where I live, becuase there are some crazy ***** around here that paint there place like pink, and seafoam green.

 

[Metal MP5]

the stuff bout montreal is BS

either that, or those laws were created in 1750 and forgotten about. People swear all the time lol

but those are still funny

EDIT: i guess they could arrest you for relieving yourself in public or on the streets, but it's pretty much like that everywhere hehe

 

[Installshield 2]

yeah you are supposedly not allowed to spit on a sidewalk here in State College, PA...I have heard s*** about students getting fined by the damn Borough parking ticket givers...Never actually saw it happen though...

 

[digitalpro5]

For some of these stupid laws, are they still in affect?

Damn how often did people drag there horse in Toronto on a Sunday.

 

[Metal MP5]

I don't know ... i'm sure it's still illegal to kill a sasquash but on the other hand, i'd like to see a cop try to give me a ticket for removing a bandage lol

Here is one that will blow your mind.

In the state of Oregon, it is NOT illegal to be naked in a park while masturbating. So long as you are not being lude to others, and no others are turned on by your actions.

I am dead serious about that, infact my sister ran into this EXACT same situation a few weeks ago. She came across and old guy naked beating off in the park across from her house. She called the cops, and the cops asked the guy to go home....because of this law.

Here's one I don't get. I was driving in the US and saw a sign that kinda said it is law to turn on headlights when cleaning windshield...Uh?

 

[clownphish]

Did it really say cleaning your windshield? ROFL. I know we have a lights on while your wipers are running but that's mainly because when it's raining your wipers are generally on, hence your lights should be as well for better visibility to other cars. Weird.

 

[Red Baron]

Ok, you may be right, but still, the message was ambiguous and the way I saw it was that whenever the wipers are on, you must switch the headlights on...I just thought it was weird.

BTW, we have daytime running lights here in Canada on our cars, so headlights are on all the time (dimmed if switch is on off position). When this law was introduced I thought it was stupid, but now, when I see an older car without the headlights on, I see why, a car is much easier to see with the hl on, so it's safer.

I'm kidding these laws are probably over 50 years old obviously never heard of or enforced.
