Well, that’s it. We are NEVER moving to Arizona….
New Mexico is kind of scary. If I need a colonoscopy, my doctor will suggest it, not a cop who stopped me for missing a stop sign.
In Charlotte North Carolina, by law women must have their bodies covered by at least 16 yards of cloth at all times.
I think a lot of these are urban legends… here’s some more information about the Wisconsin cheese law, for example.
I’m pretty sure that 16 yards would cover five women and a small pony. And I am VERY disappointed that I’ll have to find another place for my ice cream cone when visiting Alabama….
If I were graduating from a top notch fine art high school and got an opportunity to do a photo essay for a news website – I’d make sure I did my homework.
It kind of blows her photo essay in progress.
North Carolina is one of those states that is overly interested in one’s private sexual behavior – so the law that you can’t legally have sex on a hotel or motel floor between twin beds kinda rings true.
Charlotte
Women must have their bodies covered by at least 16 yards of cloth at all times.
That one is noted on multiple sites.

Oral sex is a crime against nature.
There goes my sex life.
The link isn’t showing up right on my phone, but in South Carolina it’s legal to beat your wife on the steps of the state house, but only on Sunday.
We might be in South Carolina in the coming weeks.
“Sunday”, you say, ‘ey ??......
Burnsville (about 45 minutes into the mountains from Asheville)
I’m actually mind-blown about how there are so many of these “laws” in any state yet they’re so overlooked. Are they truths or is the internet really that mutually incorrect?
Oh man, I’m sorry. My brain is also north of somewhere this evening….
@OneBadApple S’all good. ;)
@dxs Oh, they’re real. There are tons of old laws on the books that are not enforced, and perhaps never have been. These are only the most ridiculous ones.
The scary part is that the laws were created for a reason. Someone had to get a fish drunk in order for some lawmaker to decide that such a thing was wrong.
@OneBadApple Are you saying you are moving from Vermont to North Carolina? Or just visiting? Don’t move to N.Carolina seriously.
Asheville area is beautiful – not architecturally like Vermont – the mountains are just gorgeous; no old New England churches, greens, houses and lots of developments and minimals. Not a people state.
@MadMadMax We live in Florida, not Vermont. Don’t be fooled by that ‘profile’ thing. I just put nonsense down as it arrives in my head. The same profile story used to have me in Wisconsin, but I became tired of “living” there, so recently ‘moved’ myself to Vermont.
Although I have visited both states, I’ve never actually lived in either.
Sorry for any unintended confusion.
( I’m apparently well below average in mental stability….)
@OneBadApple LOL Whew, you scared me.
When I first drove into Durham i think, i saw a large burning cross for the first time in my life – reality hit me in the face. I felt like throwing up.
@MadMadMax A bit strange, considering NC is in the Bible Belt. I live in SC and I’ve never seen a burning cross – and NC is more of a “people state” than SC.
Yeah, unfortunately The South is still The South in that sense, in a lot of places anyway.
Common social enlightenment and historical behavioral shame are at least a few generations away….
North Carolina has more white supremacist secret societies than any other state I think.

May 7, 2013 – If you were wondering if the tea party crazy train was slowing down in… It’s actually picking up steam as it drags North Carolina further to the right… that puts the state tax code in the middle of the pack among the 50 states.

Apr 8, 2013 – With no remaining checks to Republican rule in North Carolina, the state has… and ill-considered—tea party fantasies dressed up as legislation.
The Tea Party will of course grow its healthiest roots in the most hand-over-heart patriotic soil, and that certainly might be in NC.
My wife’s sister and her husband moved to the mountains there about 6 years ago and think they are in heaven. Unfortunately he had a severe stroke two days ago, and the doctors in Asheville are calling it “very grave”.
Which is why we might be going up there in the coming weeks….if you know what I mean….
I hope he has health insurance.
Very sad.
Fortunately they are fine relative to health coverage.
Yeah, Mikey. He is one of those guys always doing everything for everyone. One of life’s little jokes on the rest of us, I guess.
We are hoping for a miracle….
Damn, I’m sorry…..we are supposed to be having FUN here…..
