Janetozi: Some of the laws are ridiculous like; 9, 19, 23, 35, 37, 39, 46 the one i hate the most is 35: in part of India a man who is in dept can offer up his wife until the dept is paid. What if the creditor use ur wife b4 u pay the money. Hahaha. Use as how?. The woman na collateral. You should be saying, 'am a woman....and proudly an asset'. Crazy law. |

I love this laws: 46. (In Samoa it is illegal to forget your wife’s birthday). Ooops, I really love this Law. 42. (In New York City it is illegal to honk your horn. If you do, you’re at risk of paying $350 fine). I call this Sanity Law because the way some motorists honk their horn, especially Lagos Danfo Drivers, could be maddening. 1 Like |

Educative! Those laws have their purposes and some of them are just to curb excesses and to encourage good living; not to really witch hunt. Just as we have taboos in Nigeria. While 11, 23 & 35 are ridiculous, 14 & 15 could attract serious litigation. 53 is okay as every Israeli has basic military education. 1 Like |
