A funny book...

I recently borrowed a book from my friend, called The World's Stupidest Laws. As i started to read it, myself and 2 friends were reduced to giggling. And one of them was a boy:O and boys don't giggle:P It is a very funny book, but dodgy in places.
I thought i would give you some of the funniest ( in my opinion) laws that i could find.
