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.
