    Default Dumb laws

    ok, apparently here in the Uk it is illegal to stand within 100 yards of the rulling monarch without socks on.

    so anyone know of any other bizarre laws?

    also please dont use this to show your distaste of the 24 hour drinking bill, even if it is stupid

    In NY, a person may not walk around on Sundays with an ice cream cone in his/her pocket.

    The 24 hour drinking bill is not stupid! And I think suicide being illegal is laughable.

    Its an offence to knock a policemans hat off. Even if its a sunday, your pregnant, and you intend to pee in it.

    In Washington state, it is illegal to buy a matress or any kind of meat on a Sunday.
    Oh, and all lolipops are banned.

    I have never checked if these are true but here are ones I've heard of:

    Somewhere it's illegal to throw pickles at a trolley cart.

    In NYC you have to pay a $350 for setting off a nuclear device.

    And the last one I think was found by a friend doing a research project:

    And it used to be illegal to get a fish drunk on Oklahoma (imagine what would lead to such a law)

    Thanks Jess1 for the awesome sig!!!
