Are you kidding me? That's one of the most intelligent laws I've heard of.

Any law that has the government getting into my private business is a dumb law.

I find the law against farting most improper.

Tell that to Bubba, my better half. He "passes gas" continously, for amusement, because he's bored, because he CAN. He also likes to lift up a bit in his chair to announce the impending arrival of yet another musical interlude.

We won't even discuss the silent ones. Words do not suffice anyway.

It's tough being married to such a crook.

British ones:
It is illegal for a lady to eat chocolates on a public conveyance. And I always thought I was law-abiding

It is legal for a male to urinate in public, as long it is on the rear wheel of his motor vehicle and his right hand is on the vehicle. I still don't want to see it though.

Those wishing to purchase a television must also buy a license. This isn't funny. It costs 121 pounds a year.

I've also heard that if you attend Oxford University and go to any of your final exams riding a pure white stallion you are automatically given your degree.
