Ooh~
I've seen fan-artists touch on this type of thing occasionally, but Hima went all the way.

Alfred, please spread that North Carolina law to the rest of your countryyyy

Thanks for translating!

Yay Thank you :D

...It really sucks to be single (and over 20) in Bulgaria...o.o

"American pigeons are much of a much slimer type than the Japanese"

American Pigeons are pretty fat though o.o

[mecchayumyum.livejournal.com]

Japanese pigeons and crows are massive. Like scarily massive... like something from a horror movie big. I've lived in American cities my whole life and never did I see a pigeon her as big as the ones I saw in Japan.

[island-of-myst.livejournal.com]

O.O I see...

[julesie-g.livejournal.com]

The pigeons I saw in America weren't even half the size of the pigeons from England. xD I was very surprised how skinny they were.

IKR? Especially ones in New York...

Thank you for the translation :)

Lol at Bulgaria XD
But in the end such a law is not so bad seeing the birthrate of Europeans is steadily decreasing...

[kitkatsicons.livejournal.com]

if only the whole world's birthrate were decreasing, then we wouldn't have to worry about overpopulation

THESE LAWS...

Holy shit, these are hilarious; thanks for translating!

Haha, the pigeon law... There's a fish n chips place in Seattle where there's signs all over telling people to not feed the pigeons. Feeding the seagulls, though, is a-ok, and everyone does. Poor pigeons...

[badficwriter.livejournal.com]

I've seen seagulls steal food right out of people's hands as they're holding it. Pigeons aren't so bold! (There's even a youtube video showing a seagull plucking a bag of chips of a shelf at a ministore. It learned there's food inside!)

[blackyamicat.livejournal.com]

Trust me, that pigeon law is there for good reason. In Trafalgar Square (the most popular pigeon feeding place) there used to be swarms of the feathery bastards with no fear of humans at all. They'd corner you and take anything edible from your hands, pockets, mouth, whatever.

[izzyninjajedi.livejournal.com]

I didn't know that was a California law! Although it is pretty sensible haha.

[mecchayumyum.livejournal.com]

Thank you for your hard work translating this!

<3

[kanami-yuuta.livejournal.com]

Bulgaria... are you serious? /gulp (well actually it wouldnt worth here cause the birth rate is not bad)

Canada really? XDDDD

*Joke about tone deaf people*
*Mention your favorite song*

Are you trying to tells us something, TrollKing?

[the8thstone.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the translations. :D Yes, Taiwan appeared!

The one with the postman made me laugh, heh.

[saikacloud.livejournal.com]

Wait, so does that mean Sealand is tone deaf?

DESU YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I love strange laws...

You could probably fill a book with strange laws in the US alone. I think there's one in Texas that states that you can't keep a horse in a bathtub, and one in New York that forbids people from walking around on Sundays with ice cream cones in their pockets. I always wonder what happened to make people pass these laws in the first place. I mean, someone obviously put a horse in a bathtub, but why?

(And for whatever reason, it seems like most strange laws here in the US frequently involve animals or sex. Sometimes both. I wonder what that says about us as a culture? ^^;;;)

Of course, let's not forget that if the Öresund Sea freezes over and a Swede walks across it to Denmark, the Danes are allowed to hit them with sticks (http://satwcomic.com/the-law-is-the-law)! XD

That Bulgarian law would have scared me; there was no way I was ready (or even wanted) to get married by the time I was 20, and I wouldn't like to pay extra taxes just for being single.

[asiaisaru.livejournal.com]

i remember there was a really weird kentucky law about women wearing pajamas and something about clubs or something. xDDDDD

[pennilee]

Haha- oh, the NC law...

[chiisana00.livejournal.com]

Funny. I did thought about feeding pigeons while I was studying in UK, because I do that a lot in Norway. I didn't go through that because I start to question whether it was allowed or not as I've heard certain places not allowing that, but didn't know it was UK xD

That's unfortunate :( Feeding pigeons is fun = 3 =

[disneyotaku.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

These laws, I can believe it. I remember reading a few of Florida's laws. Like, one was that you weren't allowed to break more than three dishes or chip the edges of more than four cups/saucers per day. I wonder about these laws sometimes. The Bulgaria one ;A; that stinks. And I guess American pigeons are skinny? I don't know, I've never really paid attention to pigeons to be honest xD

[silent-cynic.livejournal.com]

Lol that Canadian law explains why my internet is so slow! Great translation!

[nebulous-mirage.livejournal.com]

Aww Taiwan <3

Lol at the GULP near the end

[aomori.livejournal.com]

Thank you for translating these!

I really like the England one. I heard of a crazy law in Washington state, USA: It is illegal to have sex with a virgin. (So I guess you have to cross the border to get that done, then come back home)

[jedishampoo.livejournal.com]

Thank you for your work! Too cute. :)

[rosetteroulette.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the translations!
The little gulp near the end. XD

[kikikai.livejournal.com]

You learn something new from Hetalia everday :)

[janitalia.livejournal.com]

SERIOUSLY CANADA. O.o

[hanachan4262.livejournal.com]

Thanks a lot for the scans!! Now I feel more world-wise..!!

[nelewyeg.livejournal.com]

¡gracias por la traducción! Pero..., falta la página 46...

Here in Washington state theres a law that if you find Sasquatch (Big foot) you are under no circumstances allowed to harm it. Also no fishtanks allowed on buses. I'm sure Sasquatch appreciates it. ^_^
