You know, sometimes I just scratch my head at things in life. Like for instance, why do we have to remind people a coffee they ordered is hot by putting "caution it's hot" on the lid or cup? I know it's because of a lawsuit so many years ago but still. I mean, common sense? You would think.


Here's some Washington State Laws that are funny/weird/head scratching: (you're welcome)

1. You used to be fined up to $500 dollars for removing a tag off of a pillow.

*When did the law change and 2nd. Wasn't this the same with removing tags off of a mattress?


 

2. Anyone under the age of 18 must have parental permission to throw a tear gas cannister.

Just the thought of a tear gas cannister being thrown is. Scary. But was this law due to wars? Am I even asking the right questions?


3. It's Illegal to catch fish by throwing rocks at them.

*But what if we accidently slipped, made a rock budge just enough to slide into the river, knock a fish out and then what... Do we walk away, or grab dinner? (This is for parody purposes, please catch fish lawfully.)


4. You may not ride an ugly horse. (Wilbur WA)

*Well, I guess don't get married in Lynden? Unless you wanted to choose between dancing or drinking to celebrate.


7. It's Illegal to paint Polka Dots onto the American Flag...
