    who ever made those laws up should of been shot with a bow n arrow up the bottom as it is so stupid lol

    if we as a nation lived by those ridiculous rules we wouldnt be doing anything now apart from sitting indoors afraid to come out in case we got arrested for something that we didn't do

    and i agree with kiwi why is it illegal to kill a scotsman in york ??? does anybody actually know if these questions were actually real or just made up :)

    i would shoot my ex husband were ever i saw him if i had the chance it wouldnt matter where he was standing either lmao
