A Kansas Law: When two trains approach each other at a crossing, they should both stop, and neither of them can go until the other one has gone.

There's a caterpillar that fires balls of poop from its butt like a firing squad. These fast missiles fly at six feet a second! How you ask? The caterpillar builds up blood pressure around the bum-hole and then squeezes out the poop bombs.

If you're not grossed out yet, this might do the trick. When cows are milked, there's sometimes a great deal of blood that comes out with the milk. This tainted milk can't be sold so companies that make chocolate milk use it since cocoa hides the blood.

gonk *pukes*

What the heck! NO NO NO NO!

*Puts hands over eyes and starts to cry*

Chocolate milk is my favorite drink in the entire world.

-There are no clocks in Las Vegas gambling casinos
-A violin contains about 70 separate pieces of wood
-Slugs have 4 noses
-The average American/Canadian drinks about 600 sodas a year
-The fear of vegetables is called Lachanophobia

Have a comment such as 'I'm drink above/below the average of sodas per year.' or 'I don't live in America/Canada, so I don't know the average' Tell us, you could start up a conversation with someone.
Just please don't insult anyone.
Also don't just post, comment and discuss, it makes things more interesting. Not a rule but a request from someone who likes to talk. XD

Strange laws are fine too. We all might get a good laugh out of them.

Have fun not war


theres no clocks in casino's because they dont want you to look at a clock and realize you have to go, therefor making you stop gambling. so they remove all the clocks to make more profit. people get very caught up in gambling.....

Casinos are also designed with only one or two ways in and out, making it more difficult to leave in hopes that you will play "just one more game". Casinos also have no windows.

There are 26 different breeds of minature cattle. They were originally bred to be a solution to raising beef on a smaller amount of land. The problem is that normal sized cattle produce 4xs as much beef, so more minature cattle would need to be farmed, thus needed the same amound of land. Now minature cattle are starting to become household pets.

In addition to there being no clocks in Las Vegas casinos, all their slot machines make noises in the same key, and always major, to make the patrons enjoy themselves more.
