Useless funny facts : theCHIVE

February 18, 2011 | In: Awesome, Funny, WTF

: In Gainesville, Georgia (self proclaimed “Chicken Capital of the world”) it is against the law to eat fried chicken with a fork.

: In every still photo shown in the movie ‘Forest Gump’ the character is seen with his eyes closed.

: Babies are born with over 300 bones, it is only as they begin to develop that some of those bones fuse together. Most adults have 206 bones.

: In Zion, Illinois, it is illegal to give a pet a lit cigar. Seems fair enough.

: There is a law in Texas that prohibits people from holding concealed ice cream cones.

: It is illegal while flying over the state of Maine to step foot out of an airplane.

: Women are technically by law not allowed to wear pants in Tucson, Arizona. You’re scoffing, I know, but I couldn’t make this s&^* up.

: Using hair curlers without a license in Oklahoma is considered a criminal act.

: In Ontario, California, rooster crowing will not be tolerated. Don’t even try it.

Until you realize what the women look like in Tucson. And yes, this is a challenge to the chivettes of Tucson to prove me wrong.

Being from Nogales, and living currently in tucson, i can say girls in this state are fucking nuts. Tons of crazy latina's. Crazy as hell but definitely well equipped. Maybe not like #7 but very close

#4 Yes, but can you give a dog a blunt?

I work for the city and just realized that I haven't ever heard a rooster, but I have seen chickens.

#7 I actually saw a girl with an ass very much like that in a Verizon store a while ago. She was in line in front of me and kept swaying back and forth, moving her ass. My wife was next to me. It was torture. She kept saying "are you looking at her ass cheeks?!?!?!"

The Forrest Gump thing is completely incorrect.

How about we try and find #2 in real life? On Wed my brother stepped on an IED on patrol in Afghanistan, and ended up losing a leg and part of his arm. He's started calling himself "Lieutenant Dan" and asking the hot nurses for ice cream. I think that stand up poster would accent his hospital room rather nicely.

#6 needs a little clarification. I live in Maine and have gone skydiving here, nothing illegal about that.
