As an Ohioan, I can say that that is a very frustrating law, because local dogs are always making faces at me and I can't retaliate.
THEY'RE DOING WHAT💀
@@SillyMartmaking faces at Glarryg, who (frustratingly) is not allowed to retaliate.
The fact that people from Ohio are called ohioans makes me physically ill
I read Ohioans as Onions and got very confused
@@BitterBrainsit's more vowels than consonants, it hurts to see and say
italian cold steel cinquedea is definitely one of my favourite reoccurring drawfee characters
Forget Sonic, we are in the midst of the Italian Cold Steel Cinquedea saga.
AND fnaf character
new italian coldsteel cinquedea just dropped 👀
@@MeadowGearSolid uuuh was just about to watch the new episode, looking forward to it!
Which episode is original from?
So nice of Julia to keep Jacob's gender warm while he's not there
I almost understand what you said... scary.
Reading comments before watching a drawfee video is a confounding mistake
reminds me of the hitman and femme fatale clip
@@crackedemerald4930 And yet also somehow perfectly understandable.
Reading a comment on a Drawfee video before watching it is an experience I never knew could be so confusing
*meets a non-binary couple*
"So... which one of you... y'know...makes the faces? And which is the angry dog with the Italian cold steel cinquedea?"
"So which one of you's got the striped suit and which one throws the knives?"
*meets three people in a polyamorous relationship*
"so... which one of you is the man, which ones the missus, and which ones the donkey?"
@kolteel
- Lord Faarquad, Shrek (2001)
*or*
-Dave the pigeon, The Star (2017)
*meets person with DID but no interest in a relationship*
“So…which one of you makes the crew split up and which keeps it together?”
I havent finished the video yet what the hell is happening 😭
The "No making faces at dogs" law is probably just an extension of existing assault and provocation laws. If you make weird faces at a dog, it's likely to interpret that as a threat, so if the dog attacks you you can't claim that you didn't provoke it.
That's exactly what I thought. It might seem silly, but it's for a good reason (I'm assuming).
I was thinking that or people constantly distracting service dogs while they're working
@@kerri6011 that was my first thought, but then I thought it'd be pretty progressive to make a law like this for SD handlers and SDs... I feel like people would only be concerned/moved enough if it was a public safety issue... But you never know! Since there's no information on it, I guess I assumed it's a very old law when people cared even less for disability rights.
Yeah, that or an extension of laws protecting wildlife from being harassed. I know there are a couple states that have "no harassing the wildlife" laws that have been taken to their most extreme interpretations in order to be added to lists of "weird laws".
Dogs are animals and making faces can be a form of harassment so technically making faces at dogs is a violation of a law that says you cant harass animals.
even with that, outlawing making faces is stupid when you can just outlaw harassing dogs. i know there are people who'd gladly abuse that law to screw others over.
Can't believe they made a law for Nathan to not be apart of this episode damn
Sometimes they need to get out from under the big boss man
Can't break the law if Nathan's around
@@JudeFergy specially when he pulls his pants up.
i know specially because he's been in all of them for the past few episodes
I wanna see Nathan violate this law in the sequel, Even More Origins of Weirder Laws in America Challenge. Or the spinoff, Origins of the Weirdest Laws Around the Globe (International Laws Edition). Nathan doing the full civil disobedience!
Well damn, I was hoping they'd get the Louisiana law of "You can't tie your alligator up to a fire hydrants." It's from New Orleans and story goes there was a fire that broke out and the firemen couldn't access the fire hydrant cause there was a very pissed gator tied up to it. They had to go to the next fire hydrant much further away, which gave the fire time to spread to other houses.
to my knowledge, it's against the law to tie any animal to a fire hydrant, but the fact that that situation happened at all is hilarious 😂
@@daymuntaku6590 I imagine that that law already existed, and therefore the 'law' about alligators was likely brought up in court when the state prosecuted and therefore the specific ruling that alligators fall under that law is probably where it all started. Many of the "silly laws" people quote aren't like, submitted legislations. They're court rulings from legal altercations that usually end up elaborating on existing law and adding in weirdly specific addendums.
@@KyosumariThey're also often entirely made up!
Karina managed to reference supernatural in a way that is somehow more confusing than the actual show
Yeah...she said it was set in Kansas...I don't think that is true, though...is it? Did they ever even go to Kansas during the show?
@@davidharshman7645 I mean they're originally from Kansas and in the later seasons they're based in Kansas, so I get her characterizing it as "taking place in Kansas" even if it's really all over the US (and didn't they go to Canada once??? why am I trying so hard to remember Supernatural?)
@@lavendargooms2056You’re right. I’m originally from Kansas and so a lot of my friends were obsessed with Supernatural because it take place in Kansas(I mean, also because it’s good too)
"Carry On My Wayward Son" is by the band Kansas, which adds another layer of possible confusion to the mix.
@@lavendargooms2056 I can't remember if they went to Canada, but it was filmed there lol
I can't believe Big Boss Man Nathan locked Jacob, Julia, and Karina out in the rain as punishment for doing crimes and they had to figure out how to record an episode out on the street.
Those pants were up pretty high today.
@@proffapoluga2573 And then he drank their milkshakes, he drank them up!
This is the best one
I actually can believe it, they left Nathan out many times, he is just taking sweet revenge with his pant really high
That MUST be why everyone heard so much rain during the episode. All of us heard it. You know what I'm talking about.
I am glad we got the appropriate amount of representation for Italian cold-steel cinquedea’s this episode
As we should be given
Is there a playlist for every mention of Italian cold-steel cinquedeas yet? If not, I'll have to start that later lol
I was JUST thinkig about them again, I was rewatching the SSS Elden Ring streams
I thought for sure we had seen the last of the Italian cold steel quesadilla.
Move over, Luigi! This is the year of the Italian Cold-Stell Cinquedea.
While Houdini did die from appendicitis that may or may not have been exacerbated by those blows to his stomach, he saw a doctor who told him of the appendicitis and advised him to have it out, but he refused and continued to perform despite being in pain. So he really died because he refused medical treatment so that he could perform. It is possible that he dismissed the severity of the appendicitis because of the blows, but ultimately it was the appendicitis that killed him.
He died on Halloween.
thanks i came here to say that he actually died of appendicitis but ur already on the case
Watching Julia go through drawing all the tiles and then the render comes in tileless really got me for some reason
I definitely was thinking "damn, Julia's gonna regret having to put in all the tiles in the render" and then she just... didn't. Magnificent.
My personal favorite pair of weird laws are between Minnesota and Winsconsin in regards to crossing their shared state line. You can't go from Minnesota to Wisconsin with a duck on your head, but you can't go from Wisconsin to Minnesota with more than 3 squirrels in your pants.
In Nebraska, it's illegal to hunt whales. There's also an honorary title that the governor can bestow: Admiral of the Nebraska Navy. Their job is "to protect and seek Nebraska's seas"
(if you don't count the great lakes, nebraska is quadruple - I think - landlocked by states and provinces)
In Monterey, CA, it's illegal to molest butterflies.
I believe it is illegal to hunt whales from your car in California, illegal to anchor your boat to the railroad tracks in Louisiana, and two from my home state: it is/was illegal to exit a fully functioning aircraft, and also illegal to whistle underwater, in Maine.
Ones I'm not sure if the locations/animals are exactly correct, but there are laws like this: it is illegal to tie your giraffe to a fire hydrant in Michigan, and in Las Vegas, if you tie your elephant to a parking meter, you have to feed the meter as if it were a car. And somewhere in Southern New England, if a dentist accidentally removes the wrong tooth, the town blacksmith is to remove the same tooth from the dentist's mouth.
@hrodga that's a holdover from when "molest" just meant to bother.
You should read some really old classic novels, some of the word meaning differences are *hysterical*.
@@danielled8665 Omg... I can think of one in particular that was frequently used in the Sherlock Holmes novels, now that you mention it. 🤣
Spoilers (for the word meaning, not for any story) below
ACD frequently used a different word than we might for 'exclaimed':
_"Watson, you're a genius!" Holmes ejaculated._
*Another one, referring to a standing structure:
_A large erection rose before Sherlock._
As someone who went to school in Normal, IL, people make puns about the town name all the time. One year for the town festival, they gave out free shirts that said “I AM NORMAL” and I wear it to this day, to the confusion of everyone around me.
If you move away do you get a shirt saying "I used to be Normal"?
Karina really said "hold my beer" then proceeded to draw the furry version of "The Most Dangerous Game".
you mean knife monopoly?
“We’re breaking every known human law”
So that’s why Julia is wearing the paper bag!
It goes against common reason AND hides her identity. Perfect for Julia Le Petit
Jacob truly showed us why making faces at dogs were outlawed in certain states. Truly a foul face that was.
It's fucked up that it isn't illegal in more states really shows the poor state of the world.
i once lived in an apartment where it was illegal to mill grain! i was given official notice and everything when i moved in lmao, it was because of a local law from the 1800s that banned any wool or cotton mill building from also being used to mill any grain of any kind, and since the apartment building was once a wool mill, it still applied to us. i was very excited when i finally had an excuse to break an unenforced law from over 100 years ago.
I'm glad you think like I do. I would have immediately tried to figure out how to mill grain. 😂
The fact that airborne starch particles are extremely combustible probably also played a roll (it's why grain mills kept exploding back in the medieval era) so if you do decide to go through with it, be VERY careful and make sure there's no open flames or objects that could cause a spark nearby...
@@safaiaryu12These days you can buy an electric grain mill that's appropriately sized for individual use. Source: My mom has one for making rice flour. It's way cheaper than buying rice flour!
@@Amy_the_Lizard Mills have exploded reasonably frequently since too, several huge city fires in the past 100-150 years have been from exploding mills. It was apparently especially bad in the late 1800s and early 1900s I think. But yeah, the point is very true - it's super combustible.
If you do a squeakuel to this episode, I'd love to see one with all 4 of you have assigned weird laws from your home state.
I want Legal Eagle to guest on it and explain the origins of the laws
I would like to second this. I'd love to see the Legal Eagle on Drawfee
god maryland has so many weird ones
my personal fav is that you can’t bring your pet lion to the movies in baltimore
@@graymonk5972 I'm also a Marylander, and I really just want someone to draw one of our weird-ass laws 😂
Drawing idea! One person describes something they remember watching/reading/playing as a kid but haven’t gone back to in a long time while another person tries to draw it based on the first person’s description. Kind of like Jacob drawing while Julia rants about Thumbelina, except it doesn’t have to be something you dislike, just don’t remember well.
julia plays this game with herself everyday
that's just julia drawing
I tried this with my mom but she said I was just watching TV static
This sounds like a really fun video idea!
I'd have to describe playing dolls with my siblings. Those games got dark, man. Poor Barbie...
Love everytime they do the bit of Nathan being the Big Boss and pulling his pants up really high.
And everytime we kiss...
@@joeysingingchannelNOOO! WE AREN’T DOING THIS BIT! 🤣😂
I said in the crew's ranking stream that it would be the start of Nathan's villain arc, and honestly, his "Big Boss Man" persona is probably the most villainous arc I could imagine
I now realize that with my powers as an amateur blacksmith, I could probably make Jacob a decent cinquedea… It couldn’t be Italian, though, as I’m not Italian or in Italy. But, I could probably do hand gestures while forging it, which feels close enough?
If you get Italian steel to do it, would that make it legit?
Do it!
You gotta share it so we can see. Make a video or take step by step photos ❤
i was just watching an old stream someone sent julia an anime sword and there were shemanigans , so you should probably green light that with them beforehand, just to be safe
@@uuh4yj43I need to know which stream RIGHT MEOW
New series idea. Bring back Drawfee Break, except this time it's breaking with tradition, where you do a speed drawing of something YOU WANT TO DRAW! You guys talk about not having time to draw something that you've been wanting to do. Julia mentioned a comic she had had on her mind. I wanna see Jacob working through anatomy stuff, Nathan doing Baldur gate inspired stuff, Karina doing more sincere fan art! Challenges are great and fun to watch, but some of my favorite stuff is when you guys are really really enjoying what your doing, something you care about. x
I would check out their streams
@@mewithyouu Their streams are great! But I think op is implying more render-based art, rather than sketches done in certain amount of time (so that everyone has a chance to draw). It’d be nice to see them complete pieces they’re really feeling and go all out on (or decompress with)
@@nemosomen Yes this. I rarely ever miss a stream but they are just sketches and line art. Awesome as they are, my favorite videos these days are the full render speed draws of just one person goin ham on something they love. Karina's recent multimedia fan art with the clay figures comes to mind.
It would even be cool to have mini episodes like this, with just one person at a time but everyone commenting. Then someone could make a compilation to put it all in one episode
Episode idea: Genre swap telephone!
One person designs a character in a specific genre, they hand it off to the next person who does a genre swaped drawing of that character, then the next person draws it in another genre without seeing the first one. Sort of like the fursona telephone episode you did a little while ago.
The last person could do it in the same style as the first, to see how close it got to the original
I like that idea actually!
I thought you said "gender swap telephone", which I imagined as one person drawing a gender-swapped version of a character, somebody drawing their character based on a description of the drawing, and the final person drawing a gender-swapped version of the second drawing.
my favorite strange german law is that while pursuing your swarm of bees you are allowed to enter or cross other peoples property
I really hope they make a Jacob horse travel neck pillow someday.
It'd be like a constant hug and super stylish 😎
WARNING!!! This episode is not free of CATS 2019 reference.
the italian cold steel cinquedea becoming a drawfee staple is so unexpected, but also like not.
can't believe the italian cold steel cinquedea came up in todays episode but not the last one with the prompt featuring so many italian demons and horrors
I'm guessing the "don't make faces at dogs" law is because you can coerce a dog into attacking you by irritating it with aggressive expressions and then sue the owner.
Or, worse, get the dog killed for attacking someone. There are sadly monsters out there who are so petty and disgusting they'll purposely try to goad people's dogs into attacking so that the dog and therefore the person who loves it gets punished. Sometimes permanently.
okay but making a face at something generally requires you to stick your face at it, right? who'd try to get a dog to attack them while also making your face a target?
what i learned from watching huggbees's video about weird laws is that journalists really simply wanted some wacky clickbait so they took regular laws like "it's illegal to poach wildlife" and made it "it's illegal to carry around 6 ducks? more on page 9" or "it's illegal to throw knives at a dude in a striped suit" because "it's illegal to throw knives at a dude in ANY suit" or something
it's literally "well of course that law covers this other 'weird law'"
CRIME CRIME CRIME CRIME!!
Yeah... They are going to draw crime a few times
What do you think?
What do you think?
Crime crime crime crime crime crime crime
Anyway...
Immediately, I thought of Koh the Face Stealer with a dogs face. Then they just didn't notice his weird spirit body and thought it was a normal dog, so when they made faces at it they got their face stolen, and that's why the law was made.
Could you imagine Koh looking at Aang with that one homophobic dog’s face while he just stands there trying not to show any emotion
i can’t believe julia stole jacob’s gender (she’s very real for that)
I love when my loved ones steal my gender for a bit, really gives me a nice lunch
nuh uh, she:s very fake
Me when I made Nathan my name lmao
Well at least she gave it back.
I let my friend borrow my gender and they never gave it back
Last time I googled “italian cold steel cinquedea” it was just the actual product. Now when I look it up that’s still the top result…. But now the second result is Drawfee related. Then there’s several more Drawfee results BEFORE the literal cinquedea Wikipedia page.l!! 😮😂
Clearly, if a donkey sleeps in a bathtub past 7pm in Kansas specifically, it triggers a Gremlins scenario.
Don't feed your cute fur baby passed midnight and don't leave your donkey in a tub passed 7 pm
david has been going so insanely hard on the edits lately and i love it to no end
That's some real Eiichiro Oda expression Jacob just busted out at that dog, no wonder that's illegal, it's too expressive and funny.
Karina finding a way to incorporate Tiger and Bunny in her drawing ... chef's kiss.
Obsessed with Julia's grandma's donkey neighbors. Too bad it's illegal for Nathan to know about them
Whoever edited that intro needs to get an Oscar, this is one of the greatest pieces of art ever seen on this show
Pitching in to the donkey convo, my 5th grade teacher lived on a farm with donkeys and she absolutely ADORED them; we’d get updates for like 10 minutes on her donkeys it was great; her classroom decor was also just all donkey paintings
Fun fact, there used to be sort of social quotas for laws. There was pressue to pass a cetain amount so that it could be seen as someone doing something. Similar to promising things you can't actually deliver when running for any office, there was pressure to show that the wheels were still turning, even if the train wasnt moving. To meet these social quotas without passing laws they didn't like, useless, pointless, or otherwise unenforceable laws were often passed.
Things i have in common with Julia's French grandma: i also used to have neighbors who were donkeys! I miss them 😭
Known chaos gremlin Karina claiming that she is polite and respectful is such a stretch I don't think even psychic paper could get that one through.
Origin story of the stripe suit law:(in my mind) some guy was running wearing a striped suit that looked like he just broke out of prison and a local villager wanted to be a hero so he threw a knife at the man in stripes, who wasn’t actually an inmate. The knife throwers defense was that he thought it was an escaped prisoner because of the stripes, thus this whacky law was born! The man in stripes was actually a tiger though.
As a Kansan I can say the striped suit is illegal because people in Kansas love Waldo
As a fellow Kansan I’m shocked that other states don’t respect the almighty Waldo and his cosplayers
The donkey discussion in this ep just made me so happy. My mom keeps donkeys as well and gives them all “old lady” names like Agnes and Bernice. They are so cute! ❤
I was absolutely paralyzed with anxiety, in a full blown panic that this episode would not feature an Italian cold steel cinquedea… now I’m relieved and I have nothing to worry about.
I wonder if the first law was because someone made a bunch of faces at a dog and was attacked, and the owner managed to successfully argue the dog was provoked.
The second one made me think of mafia 4 some reason.
My initial thought was that there was some band of criminals who showed their unity by wearing pin striped suits. Maybe it was back in the days when bounty hunting was a thing. These guys probably had a hefty amount on their heads, so bounty hunters were like stripes + Kansas = money and some mistakes were made.
Oklahomans and Ohioans were the only ones not so concerned with whether or not they could make faces at dogs, to stop and ask whether they should.
And the town of Normal in Illinois
@@itsmeorwhatever627 Other Illinois place names that should earn your ire: Des Plaines (“I live in Des Plaines, Illinois.” “So where in Illinois?” “Des Plaines.” “Narrow it down for me, Illinois is mostly the plains”), Standard City, Hometown, Plaino, & Plainfield.
Names that might make up for those: Sandwich, Gays, & Schram City
@@itsmeorwhatever627Peculiar, Missouri decided to be just a little bit different
@@voilet-the-non-violet-vulpixdon't forget Farmer City, which is the equivalent of naming Detroit "Car Town"
the return of the italian cold steel cinquedea is a welcomed surprise
When I saw that there was a drawfee ep out today I almost cried. Today has been incredibly stressful and this is a welcome break from that. Thank you, drawfee, for providing so much stress relief
I'd love to see Jacob's country style telling of the Donkey and Missus Bathtub Story animated.
I love the now-recurring theme of Nathan being some kind of super strict scary intimidating guy by hiking his trousers/pants up and doing “that thing” 😭💀 it’s so funny it’s my favourite thing as of late
I think we should have an annual episode of drawfee drawing prompts they missed, I'd love to see Nathan take a crack at this!
Fun fact, Houdini didn't actually die from not prepping himself for the punch. He actually died from doing a full other magic show instead of going to the hospital after his appendix likely burst. (He could have had appendicitis which was exasperated by the punch)
In my headcannon the reason you can't make faces at a dog is because of an event that led to the smile dog creepypasta (dogs making faces/smiling would curse anyone who looks at them, therefore to prevent that from happening they prohibited it)
13:05 Jacob's comment about roaring a lil too much is solid gold and did not get acknowledged lol
I had the EXACT same thought.
I can already tell that Jacob's illegal dog face is gonna haunt my nightmares
Born and raised in Ohio, can confirm, when one sees a dog at any distance, one must immediately turn one's face to the sky, or retreat into one's shirt up to our hair.
As an actual licensed attorney, I want to say all sorts of pedantic and nit-picky things about these "laws" . . . but I won't.
no please do now I'm intrigued
I do kinda wanna know more tbh
Do it...
Give in to your lawyerly instincts. Rip and tear… until it is unfun.
Okay, well, if you all insist.
First, about "crazy laws" in general, most such things have been repealed. When a law is repealed or fundamentally altered by a later law, it may or may not be removed from the official records. The U.S. Constitution, for example, never has anything REMOVED from it, so there's stuff in there about the manufacture of alcoholic beverages being illegal. So these laws might be "on the books" somewhere, but that doesn't always mean that's actually the current state of the law.
Additionally, many of these laws are "tort law," meaning that, if they ARE still valid, they are causes of action for lawsuits, but not crimes. You can't be arrested and thrown in jail for them, but you can be sued for them and you will likely lose that suit.
Finally, some of these aren't laws in the sense that some legislature voted for an act that said this thing is illegal (or cause for a lawsuit), but are rather the application of statutory law by some particular court. For example, if there was a statute against "taunting" dogs and some court ruled that making faces at dogs does indeed violate that statute, then by extension, it is now "illegal to make faces at a dog." I don't know for sure that's the origin of the making faces at dogs law, but I would guess that's what happened.
And finally, finally . . . I actually know the story behind the striped suit one, and it's a version of this last case. There had been a jail break in the area (this was back in the early 1900s, when that sort of thing was more common), and some "good samaritan" saw a dude wearing what he thought was a striped prison jumpsuit, so he threw a knife at the dude in an attempt to apprehend him. He was arrested, and tried to argue in court that because the victim (who survived, btw) was wearing a striped suit like a prison inmate, that throwing a knife at him was a perfectly reasonable thing to do in an attempt to apprehend a dangerous fugitive. The judge did not buy it, and declared that it is not legal to throw a knife at a man based solely on the fact that the man is wearing a striped suit and thus looks like an escaped inmate.
Warning: this episode is not free of the Italian cold steel cinquedea.
Drawing suggestion: draw each other into an isekai. Example- Nathan is king of dinosaurs in a prehistoric world; Karina uses a Digimon deck in a YuGiOh-esque dimension; Julia is a Drawtective in an isekai full of vampires; and Jacob is the leader of a bunch of little guys rebelling against hot villains.
But they're hot, how can they be villains?
Great to see you on every vid man, I admire the dedication
How many videos have you commented this on? Have you been keeping track?
A law about having a donkey sleeping in your bathtub pops and karina casually starts to compare it to parking rules like it's the most logical concept
The donkey has such an enigmatic unsettling mistery expression, i love it. There's only a hint of emotion in it.
I know this probably wasn't the intention, but the raised eyebrows on Jacob's crazy face guy gives it the look that this is the first time the dog's reacted violently, and face guy is just so surprised, but his face is stuck in that look because he's a little in shock.
my favorite recurring drawfee character is the italian cold steel cinquedea
Suggesto: Drawing based on random haikus from the Neopets Haiku Generator
I don't know why (i.e. I know _exactly_ why) but with every episode mentioning the cold steel italian cinquedea I get more and more tempted to get one. Like, I looked at their online store and thought "hey, on sale it's only $170, that's not too much to waste on something I'll put on my wall and forever remember the 2023 Drawfee cold steel italian cinquedea arc until my grandchildren ask me where I got that 'cool knife' from and I have to explain the entire concept of early-21st-century post-dadaist humor to them" and once I snapped out of it I realized my ability to control my spontaneous urges is rapidly slipping. Please don't continue this or I know what I'll get myself for christmas TωT
Do you really think a single member of the Drawfee fandom would ever tell you NOT to do something like that? 😅
SPEED DRAWING SUGGESTION: advertisement posters for a nonsense product, like a yell-powered bicycle or a handheld toaster, idk but I know y'all would have fun, and Nathan would riff SO hard.
i feel like i’ve been seeing this prompt for years, your dedication is truly awe inspiring
Yell powered bicycle is so funny
As of writing this the episode is 7 minites old, so I have no idea if it is one of the crimes chosen; but if they have the "it's illegal to put donkeys in a bathtub" law here I'm gonna scream. (Fun fact: that law just straight up doesn't exist in any state.) I pray to jacob: please let me keep my lizard calm.
After watching- I'm sorry for your lizard
oop.
Unfortunately, a lot of these "silly" laws were indeed made as extensions of prejudice against certain groups if you look hard enough- which is what most listicles won't tell you.
drawfee references "to give a mouse a cookie situations" surprisingly often
The fact that the phrase "maybe they do hunting role play parties" was said so casually rattles me to my very core
In the drawing for the first law, I think there's something we need to consider. What if that guy's face naturally looks like that?
i hope they do the "illegal to slurp soup in new jersey" law next time they do this prompt
Nobody noticed Jacob’s “things were roaring a little too much [in the 20’s]” joke 🥲
I can't believe they threw Nathan in jail so they could do crimes.
Amazing! Some of my favorite silly laws are "you cant have ice cream in your back pocket" and "you cant leash a giraffe to a telephone pole". I can't remember where they are enforced but it really makes you think about that one idiot that ruined it for the rest of us.
Not sure if David edited this one, but whoever the editor was...the intro visials have been a true work of art lately. Well done 😆
Just gotta say, whoever made it, that intro was really funny 😂
Speed Draw Suggestion: Finishing off *each others CHILDHOOD drawings*
Similar to the 'Finishing each others line art' episode. But adding in the old 'Redrawing our childhood drawings' episodes.
Interpreting each others childhood scribbles into full artistic beauty ~☆
The jacob donkey was truly delightful, what a good drawing 😊 (the render jumpscared me tho)
Also Karina's tiger suit man was cute ❤
This episode made me funny
the last drawing reminds me of that meme tweet, like: me, my husband and the fat donkey he keeps in the bathtub
This video has some strong classic drawfee energy. Those full scene drawings of the most random and vexing situations are great. This prompt definitely needs a squeakquel.
The fact that Karina heard 'suit' and her first thought was fursuit...
Day 32, why don't you make starter pokemon? Nathan could make the grass line, Jacob the water line, Karina the fire line, and Julia makes the professor, I would love it
Most of these "weird laws" you read about are usually either
- Outright fabrications
- Distorted obtuse misunderstandings of real laws, or
- Common urban myths that people seem to believe are their own weird local laws all over the place (for example, in no state, country, or jurisdiction is there a law prohibiting the operation of an automobile while barefoot).
"Making faces at dogs" is not illegal in Ohio, in Oklahoma, or in Normal Illinois. These claims are all likely distorted ideas construed from laws prohibiting people from taunting, distracting, or harassing police, service, and/or seeing-eye dogs.
There is no Kansas state law that specifically prohibits throwing knives at men wearing striped suits. Some research shows this claim being specifically about the city of Natoma, Kansas- I checked their city code and found no such ordinance there either. The closest I can find is an ordinance against throwing dangerous objects on public grounds - not a single mention of knives or suits (much less striped ones).
In Arizona *there is no such law* against donkeys sleeping, being, or doing *anything* in bathtubs, regardless of time of day or any other condition. This one has quite a story worked up around it with lots of fun details, and many seemingly reputable sources have parroted the information, but unfortunately it is completely false. The only two laws in the Arizona statutes that even mention donkeys are one against tripping equines and one absolving equine owners of liability for injury inflicted by the equine while under another person's control.
For more fun weird US laws that just... aren't real- check out Huggbee's video on the subject, it's quite good.

loving the rep of weird country music in this episode
If I had a nickel everytime a French woman said they liked donkeys, I would have two nickels.
Which isn't much but it is weird that it happened twice.

Funny fact, a friend of mine's great (great?) grandfather is the sole reason for a gun control law in an Illinois town. Lining on a main drag, he used to sit on his porch cleaning his gun to intimidate somebody-or-another. They passed the law specifically to have an excuse to make him check his guns with the sheriff's office while in town.
