Alice These laws are so weird. One funny one where I come from is "It is illegal to drag a dead horse down Younge Street on a Sunday" this is a law in Toronto, Canada. Who would drag a dead horse down the cities main street? So the can drag the horse down that street on a Monday? 4/25/2009

Zheljka, Umag weird laws? does anyone find it weird that all the 'laws' are based on sexuality? I mean, it's obvious you have problems, man, living in the internet=virtual society,and I suppose that you suppose that every man in the world is looking through your eyes - okay, deflowering of virgins is the first thinf you would do, right?okay - try to go there, try to go in that country! oh-oh, I suppose you have problems with visa? such countries don't accept your citisenship? hey, maybe it's because of your cultural boundaries - hey, what do you think about this: immigrants should be granted for the opportunity of having sex with American girls? it's the same as what you speak about! it sounds cool to have sex with vrgins right? and what about your sister? your mother? yourself, huh? 2/19/2009

Al Caholic this would have been a little better without your dumbass side comments...sorry man, but your not as funny as you think... 6/15/2008
MAG I stopped reading and believing at #5. Being that i'm was born and partialy raised in Guam, I'd have to say that this "law" is very false! Since the spanish came to Guam in 1668, the dominant religion of Guam has been Roman Catholic and if anybody knows a little about catholics, then you would know that its expressly forbidden to engage in premarital sex! I just dont want anybody thinking of my home in that way. Thanks 5/8/2008
anonymous FYI. In Islam having a sexual relations with an animal is the greatest sin. About the number 10: it implies that having a sexual relations is OK which is completely wrong. In fact the penalty for that sin is very serious. 3/23/2008
Elle I think the rules were non-existing ones.The 3 first were totally not true.
I do not appretiate people putting these type of writings on the web.
3/23/2008
Omar Al Qady Actually Islamic law prevents sodomy and punishes it by death so number 10 makes no sense, and I tell you that from experience as I myself am a moslim(No, it's not muslim it's moslim and the 's' is pronounced like a 'c' not a 'z'). 3/12/2008
Fernando Torres ´What you say here it´s the most stupid thing I have ever read in my life¡¡ I´m originally from Cali; Colombia , I´m 40 years old, my family is Colombian , my father is 83, my mother is 79 and believe me, I have never met anybody,in my country who knows about this stupid law or met a person who has lived such a stupid experience.This person says we have this law in Cali, colombia¡¡ I think this guy is a complete ignorant who doesn´t have any idea about our costumes,culture and believes that the US and the Americans are the best. 3/12/2008
Emily Roberson Very Funny!!! 2/4/2008
Roberto They probably enforce the Indonesian one via arranged marriages or the like. 11/30/2007
jash these were some hilarious laws 11/27/2007
Mohamed i'm from the middle east, and tho i admit, we do have our quirks, NONE of it is that stupid!, common people, have some common sense!, MANY OF THESE LAWS ARE BOGUS!. To the writer of this article, if you have some dignity, PLEASE show my comment. thank you. 11/27/2007

jason #10 is diff not legitimate at all..not one country in the middle east recognizes such an absurd law...on the other hand, i assume this site is all fun in games, and not used for fact research.... 11/26/2007
Leo As someone who lives on Guam, I know for a fact that No. 5 is an outright lie. It makes me wonder how many of the others are false as well. 11/26/2007

LUIS HEY ALEX SEE THIS 10/19/2007

Kapil I live in Colombia. The Cali "law" is absolute, unadulterated bull. 3/1/2007
rto as Indonesian, I even don't know that the penalty of masturbation is decapitation. I do it often. 3/1/2007
Adil Number 10: Most Middle Eastern countries recognize the following Islamic law: "After having sexual relations with a lamb, it is a mortal sin to eat its flesh." (umm OK, I’m sure the lamb appreciates that one)
Please change this as its not true, islam does not permit any intercourse with animals at all.

J absolutley wrong about the hong kong one as well. i lived in hong kong when i was a child and now i reside in Toronto. Hong Kong follows the british law, so if in Britain it is always againt the law to take a life it will be the same in HK. and i read a lot of other comments, many people say a lot of these aren't true as well. only fools who don't research will believe these laws are true 3/1/2007
kjhgl crazy 2/28/2007
Dave The Guam one is definitely not true. It's US territory and they're mainly Catholics. 2/28/2007
Jon Interesting 2/28/2007
Bill So if you masturbate in Indonesia, you have to pay a tax? That IS weird.... 2/28/2007

Justin B This place is cool! 11/30/2006
cranston36 Ali Baba and the TSA :

TSA CLERK: What is your name?

TRAVELLER:Ron Smith.

TSA CLERK: Is Ron your first name?

TRAVELLER:Yes.

TSA CLERK: What is your last name?

TRAVELLER:Smith.

TSA CLERK: Have you been here before?

TRAVELLER:Yes, last week.

TSA CLERK: Have you ever used another name besides ‘Ron Smith’?

TRAVELLER:No.

TSA CLERK: We don’t have a Ron Smith going through here last week.

TRAVELLER:Maybe it’s under ‘Ronald Smith’.

TSA CLERK: I thought you never used another name besides ‘Ron Smith’.

TRAVELLER:Well, yes, but my full name is Ronald. Maybe they have it under Ronald instead of Ron.

TSA CLERK: Who is they?

TRAVELLER:They. Them. You. The lady that took my information last week when I was flying out of here.

TSA CLERK: Whoever took your information would only take the information you gave them. If you gave them Ronald they would type in Ronald. If you gave them Ron they would type in Ron. You just gave me Ron so I typed in Ron. If you gave them another name other than Ron I need to know what it is.

TRAVELLER:It might be under Ronald.

TSA CLERK: I’ll check Ronald. No, nothing under Ronald.

TRAVELLER:I don’t know what to say.

TSA CLERK: Do you have any identification on you?

TRAVELLER:I have these cards.

TSA CLERK: Anything with a photograph. Do you have something with your name on it and your photograph?

TRAVELLER:Yes, here is my driver’s license.

TSA CLERK: This says your name is Ronald. Is that you?

TRAVELLER:Yes.

TSA CLERK: I’ll have to change your name in the system then because I have you in as Ron. We’ll have to start again. This will just take a moment.

(Ten Minutes Pass)

TSA CLERK: Okay, so is this your picture?

TRAVELLER:Yes.

TSA CLERK: Is that you in the photo?

TRAVELLER:Yes.

TSA CLERK: Is this your name here? Ronald Smith?

TRAVELLER:Yes.

TSA CLERK: Have you been through here before?

TRAVELLER:Yes, last week.

TSA CLERK: I can’t find you in here. Did you perhaps give them another name?

TRAVELLER:No. Ronald Smith or Ron Smith.

TSA CLERK: Which is it?

TRAVELLER:Ronald Smith.

TSA CLERK: Just like on the driver’s license?
TRAVELLER:Yes.

TSA CLERK: Spelled the same way?

TRAVELLER:Yes.

TSA CLERK: I still can’t find you in here. Anyway, we’ll just start fresh. Do you have any carry on baggage?

TRAVELLER:No. It’s all been checked.

TSA CLERK: Would you like to check anything now?

TRAVELLER:No. I checked it already.

TSA CLERK: I still can’t find you in here from last week. Do you have another piece of identification with your picture on it?

TRAVELLER:Yes, here you go.

TSA CLERK: Is this your picture?

TRAVELLER:Yes.

TSA CLERK: Is this your name?

TRAVELLER:Yes.

TSA CLERK: This one says Ron Smith and the Driver’s License says, Ronald Smith. I’ll have to put in a variance for you.

(Five minutes pass)

TSA CLERK: You didn’t sign this card, sir.

TRAVELLER:Oh, I must have forgotten.

TSA CLERK: Please sign the card, sir.

TRAVELLER:Okay.

(Signs card)

TSA CLERK: Is this you, Ron Smith?

TRAVELLER:Yes.

TSA CLERK: You signed it Ronald Smith.

TRAVELLER:Oh, my, does that make a difference?

TSA CLERK: Well, not here, but someone might have a problem with that. They are sticklers for detail on the other end. I hope they let you off the plane.

TRAVELLER:I could resign it.

TSA CLERK: That wouldn’t be proper. We’ll just have to see how it goes.

TRAVELLER:I see.

TSA CLERK: Would you mind taking off your shoes?

TRAVELLER:Sure. Here you go.

TSA CLERK: Place them on the counter please.

TRAVELLER:Okay.

TSA CLERK: Did you buy these shoes here in the airport?

TRAVELLER:No. I bought them at the mall near my house.

TSA CLERK: Has anyone approached you and offered to give you money to wear shoes on this flight?

TRAVELLER:No.

TSA CLERK: Has anyone unknown to you asked you to wear shoes as a favor for them on this flight?

TRAVELLER:No.

TSA CLERK: Okay. We are just about done here. After you put your shoes on you can proceed over to the check-in screening booth and speak to Mr. Da'uud Mikha'iil Muusa standing over there next to Mrs. Faaima Ali Aa'isha for your final flight approval.
