1_million_wordsHi everyone! Hope everyone is surviving. We all know there is a lot of not-so-fun or funny stuff going on in the world today, so in order to have a little bit of light-heartedness, for this weekend's challenge, I have a list of 17 laws that are very odd and kind of funny.
So pick a number or two or three from 1 to 17, and I will share with you these oddities, in the hopes that something will inspire you.
I'm going to be out for most of Saturday, so I'm going to give you till the end of Friday anywhere in the world to write at least 300 words or make at least 2 icons or an equivalent. I will then reward you with a drabble, an icon, words in a WIP or create a strange law in your honor that no one will have to follow :)

Date: 2025-02-22 03:53 am (UTC)4. Remember your high-heel permit in California
(While the belief that high-heel shoes are banned in California is a misconception, it stems from specific local regulations rather than a statewide law. In the coastal town of Carmel-by-the-Sea, an ordinance requires a permit for wearing heels over two inches high with a base of less than one square inch.
The rule was introduced to protect the city from liability due to its uneven sidewalks and cobblestone streets, which pose a tripping hazard. And, although the law is rarely enforced and permits are given freely, it serves as a precautionary measure to limit the city's legal responsibility in case of injuries.)
