They enshrine homework policy in law over there?

Oh my

You're in Germany, right? Do you know if that is a state law or a federal law?

We weren't even testing for that.

State law, most likely. Can't imagine it being federal law in any way.

You think that's bad now, I'm starting a PhD in chemistry this year.

My 6th grade teacher taught it to us as "When you give your wife a gold ring, she goes "Au!" When you give her a SILVER ring, she goes "Ag." And you have to be careful not to "CU"t yourself on copper.

To be honest, the only elements that I can remember are just the ones that we've covered a lot. We're starting the Group 2 elements today and redox reactions, so this should be interesting.

	I don't even remember homework... its been 8 years since I was in high school. I remember some of the projects I had to work on, though. Like the creative ones where we had to make or build something. Those were my favorite. Paper projects and the like: meh, boring. ____________________

There are also state laws that forbid alcohol. They are just ignored now a days. It's pretty weird.

In my home town, it is illegal to park your horse-drawn cart on the main road and urinate on the front wheel.

Why the front wheel, I don't know. I see that and wonder if the back wheel is okay.

It is also legally required that every taxi carry a bale of hay in the trunk.

Thanks for being a part of us, even if it wasn't always on the best of terms.

And do taxis have those hay bales?

Also, is it legal to pee on a front wheel of an automobile, then? Or, for that matter, an ox-drawn cart? What about a bicycle?

Yeah, laws get weird. Try this.

See, this is why it is so...confusing

And no, Taxis do not have said hay bales. (Edit: Haha, the taxi law is present in that link)

Yep. How will the Australian vehicle-peeers know where they can pee if the laws are so damn vague?

Oh wow, it seems Pennsylvania is pretty strict, too.

Any motorist driving along a country road at night must stop every mile and send up a rocket signal, wait 10 minutes for the road to be cleared of livestock, and continue.

You may not catch a fish by any body part except the mouth.

You may not sing in the bathtub.

The last one is particularly shocking ... ... really?

Nobody's ever done a foxgirl, to my knowledge. And Disgaea's awesome, so... yeah.

I'm afraid to even ask how these laws pass.

Is anyone even tempted to break the dumb ones?
