I question the *cannot think of the word*
These can't be real.
Go Illinois!
A state law in Illinois mandates that all bachelors should be called master, not mister, when addressed by their female counterparts.
So that means every female here in IL should call me master, or does that mean they should call me master anytime they would use mister? Because nobody calls me mister. I'd slap them if they did. I really don't like formalities like that.
An Illinois state law requires that a man's female companion shall call him "master" while out on a date. The law does not apply to married couples.
Oh, that answers my question. Should've said that the first time. Well, I don't go out on dates, so this doesn't apply to me.
Champaign: One may not pee in his neighbor's mouth.
So...we can do it anywhere else?
Chicago: Law forbids eating in a place that is on fire; It is illegal to give a dog whiskey; Kites may not be flown within the city limits; Spitting is forbidden
I like that last one. I think it's disgusting how people seem to be spitting everywhere. I have to walk on those sidewalks, you know.
Eureka: A man with a moustache may not kiss a woman.
And people wonder why the divorce rate is so high.
In Illinois, it is illegal for anyone to give lighted cigars to dogs, cats, and other domesticated animal kept as pets.
As for those animals that aren't pets, have fun! And for yet another reiterating...
In Zion, Ill., it is illegal for anyone to give lighted cigars to dogs, cats, and other domesticated animals kept as pets.
So wait, is it illegal in Illinois, or just in Zion? Does the Zion law cancel out the Illinois law? If one broke the law directly on the town border of Zion, how long would it take the government to decide whether the person broke a state law or a city law? Or maybe the fine is doubled if broken in Zion.
Joliet: Town fathers, reflecting the pet peeve of hearing their town's name mispronounced 'Jolly-ETTE' when all local folk know it's pronounced 'Joe-lee-ETTE', made pronouncing it Jolly-ette a misdemeanor, punishable by a $5 fine.
Actually, they should probably use that law here in Benld. It gets pronounced wrong a lot by people who aren't from around here. (It's pronounced Ben-eld.)
Take some elocution lessons if you're going to Joliet, Ill., where it's against the law to mispronounce the city's name. Offenders can be fined up to $500.
And the law just contradicted itself. $5 or $500? You decide.
Kenilworth: A rooster must step back three hundred feet from any residence if he wishes to crow; Hens that wish to cackle must step two hundred feet back from any residence.
Kirkland: Bees are not allowed to fly over the village or through any of Kirkland's streets.
I'm quite curious how those are enforced.
You may be arrested for vagrancy if you do not have at least one dollar bill on your person.
Does a debit card count? I don't usually carry any actual cash. Oh well, not like a cop is going to come up to me and say, "Give me your wallet so I can see how much money you have."
