Rummaging in your Y-fronts is hardly welcomed here, either!

I think that might depend on who's doing the rummaging...

I thought he meant rummaging through the bins in just your y-fronts isn't welcome.

Standing for longer than 10mins on the street in one spot is illegal in San Francisco, it is construed that you are a vagrant
Pfffft.

There's a book I read about all this malarky that I've mentioned on here before. It's titled You Can Get Arrested for That. Basically, these two guys from down south drive around America breaking all these daft laws. Not a bad read, but they didn't offer up any explanations as to why these laws were brought in in the first place.

No.
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Well, it's a great shame, but a couple of years ago the UK Govt. wrapped up a lot of our inexplicable and historic laws.

So it is no longer legal to kill a Welshman found within the city walls of Chester after dusk.

Bugger ... I could be in trouble now.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Not sure if Nova Scotia scrapped it's British law which offered I think up to 50 pounds for any Micmac Indian scalp. It was still in effect as of a few years ago.

Really? I didn't know that that had been rescinded. :shock:

Well, should they offer me a freemanship now I'll tell them where they can stick it!
