+7Hey NOW!! I'm from WV and we don't have laws like that. A lady asked me the other day if I was a Yankee, I said," No maam, WV is south of the Mason-Dixon line, however, we were the people that shot BOTH northerners and southerners during the civil war."
I think corsets are actually very comfortable.
"It is illegal to spit on sidewalk."
Hah, I do it anyway and around police officers.
"Children are not to go trick-or-treating on Halloween."
They can't? Then how come I see them do it every year?
"Richmond
It is illegal to flip a coin in a restaurant to see who pays for a coffee."
Wow, really? I'm just miles way from the city and I seen it happen several times.
"Virginia Beach

They actually enforce that there too.
"It is illegal for a person to ride on the handlebars of a bike"
I think that's enforced too.
"It is illegal to use profanity on Atlantic Avenue or the boardwalk."
*Pfft* Fuck that bullshit.
