There's also a place where you can't tie a crocodile to one... What's with these fire hydrant laws?

Strange Laws:

1. In 29 states of America, it's legal to fire someone for being gay

2. In Thailand, it is illegal to stop on money

3. In Arkansas, you are allowed to beat your wife, but only once per month

4. In Iowa, it is illegal for a man with a moustache to kiss a woman

5. In Britain, it's illegal to handle a salmon while being suspicious (This one really got me)

6. In Britain (again), it is illegal to import potatoes if you have a reasonable belief that they're polish

And Finally: Wives can kill their husband if they find him cheating BUT only use their bare hands (totally not murder at all)

You get more wet running to a destination in the rain than walking.

EDIT: Disregard this, it's apparently false.

(Also, @rmanimal , there is no Blue rank on the forums, until you're green you're called a Whitey. Regarding the Steve issue, make sure your Minecraft username is entered correctly, otherwise I'm not sure why it would be a Steve.)

Mythbusters tested this. In their tests it turned out running was worse, HOWEVER, the experts they consulted about this actually had the opposite result. But still you won't get that much more or less wet even if you walk or run.

Jeez, sorry. I read that in a book my uncle gave to me last year, not some television show. So don't blame me for thinking an officially published book would have correct information.

 

[Alphaesia]

Sorry

Absurd fact, the longest game development time was 15 years, and was never finished.

 

[Srentiln]

Wow...there was a game that was in development for longer than Duke Nukem Forever (by 1 year)...that is impressive

 

[Alphaesia]

I think it was Duke Nukem Forever ._.


I forgot the game title.

 

[Srentiln]

...but DNF was (finally) finished and published in 2011
