Isn't attempting suicide illegal?


Up until the 1960s it was.

It's illegal in Britain for any animal to try and mate with the Queen's corgis (apparently:K::K::K:)


If this is true, it's hilarious.
I'm just imaging the queen standing there, like a protective parent, telling all of the other corgis to stay away from hers.

I love the guinea pig one, I wish that law existed everywhere! Guinea pigs need company to be happy, we can't have them going lonely :frown:

My friend had 2 Guinea pigs. One killed the other by biting its neck so she bought the remaining pig another friend (don't ask why). It then proceeded to murder that one too, in the same way. Psychopathic little thing.

What's the craziest thing you've ever heard is legal/illegal somewhere? The internet may not be a fully reliable source, but some of them are pretty amusing if they are true!

Here are some of my favourites:
In Switzerland it is illegal to own one guinea pig, you have to own at least two.
In Pennsylvania, it is illegal to sleep on top of a refrigerator outdoors (but it is legal indoors)

Let's hear them :rofl:

My friend moved to Dubai. His mum had to get a written note from her husband saying that he permitted her to drive in order to get a driving license!

In China there's no age limit, you apply for a licence and get your name pulled out of a hat essentially. Then you can buy a car

Like how in Saudi, women can drive a plane but not a car...
