Canada:

If you are released from prison, it is required that you are given a handgun with bullets and a horse, so you can ride out of town. (Can anybody say Wild West in Canada? :) )

Greece:

One could not wear a hat in the Olympic Stadium in ancient times as it would obstruct someone’s view. (Well, ancient greece anyway, and it makes sense)

Italy:

A man may be arrested for wearing a skirt. (lol.....)

United Kingdom:

A bed may not be hung out of a window. (Okay, thanks for reminding me to not hang my 100 pound bed outside the window. Do sleeping bags count?)

Theres several UK laws dating back to the middle ages.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

As it should be!  The same should go for belching, scratching your ass, and winking lasciviously.
