WEIRD LAWS

Laws act as codes of conduct and means of ensuring justice in a society.
While some are nice and good to go, some are kinda weird and funny.😂 In form of a story, I’ll be talking about some of the very weird ones. Don’t laugh too much. Just read through and add some you’re aware of in the section for comments below.
I visited my friend in Switzerland last week. I was very pressed and needed to pee. I went to the restroom and two minutes later, the Landlord knocked on our door. Do you know why?
You cannot flush the toilet after 10pm in Switzerland. It’s considered noise pollution. 😂😂
James and John are twins. They stay in Florida and share John’s Netflix logins. Yesterday, John took James’ phone and logged him out from the Netflix account. When he asked him why he did so, he told him he was traveling to Tennessee, U.S.A the following day.
Sharing your Netflix password with someone is an offense in Tennessee.
David travelled to North Korea for his masters program and didn’t call his dad throughout the 3 years of his stay there. Guess why.
It’s a crime to make international calls in North Korea.
One man who’s my neighbor here in China was arrested few days ago. They believe he reincarnated.
It's illegal to reincarnate without permission in China.🤣🤣
Don’t just laugh and go. There are some of these laws in your country as well. Feel free to share them. There’s joy in sharing.
The rules are made to order society and from that point of view it is fine because our rights end where the rights of others begin.
In Latin America, where I live, many times the rules -unfortunately- are not followed and everyone does what they want.
Obviously, excessive compliance with the rules does not lead anywhere nor is it positive.
In Germany, for example, if you go to an ice cream parlor with another person and you sit at a table for four people, the waiter will immediately come and warn you not to sit down, that is, to get up. You will have to wait for a table for two people to become free.
