    In Alabama it is illegal to carry a comb in your pocket, because it may be used as a weapon. This comes after a 13 year old boy was killed when he was stabbed with a comb.

    Yeeehaw!

    it's illegal to get drunk in a pub

    This was taken from BBC News Magazine:

    WHAT DO YOU DEFINE AS BEING DRUNK IN THE PUB?

    It's one of the peculiarities of the law that it's illegal to be drunk in a pub, and the government - under its plan to relax the licensing laws to allow 24-hour pub and bar opening - says this will be enforced.

    But how is such a rule interpreted?

    The law defines drunkenness as having drunk alcohol to the extent that you have "lost steady self-control".

    In practice, the courts tend to use glazed eyes, slurred speech and unsteadiness as the yardstick.

    Few people, if any, are in fact prosecuted for just being drunk - unless they are disorderly.

    I found out that the daddy longlegs has the most powerful poison on earth (according to my bf which was later 'confirmed' from watching Ricky Gervais...Animals?) and yet has no teeth with which to use it.

    I also learnt that the creators of the NEC 313 and 3 the network shoul be shot in the ass for creating shit...malteser can't send her texts....then her phone freezes...then she turns it off...tries to the send the message and her phone freezes....then she turns it off...you see the cycle...YOU SEE!!!

    Well, you're not exactly the poster-boy for intelligence are you?

    It's so sad when normal threads have to turn in to slagging matches.

    Grow up people. :(

    I learned that rolling in snow gives you a cold.

    I suggest we keep this thread alive, and add to it every day. Seems like we could learn lots about our lives if we would only analyse what we've done each day.

    Albert Einstein worked out how long it took him to put on and take off his socks every morning and night and then multiplied that figure by the number of days he expected to live for the rest of his life.

    When he realised how much time he was wasting with socks he never wore them again.
