Collaborative Efforts
Created | Updated Jun 20, 2003
Welcome to the place on the web to meet collaborators, the dusty, smoke-filled basement in the
h2g2 towers where dodgy characters plot mischief and mayhem.
We all knew it was going to happen sooner or later. It was as inevitable as George Michael
coming out of the closet. With all the wonderful collections going on, someone had to start
one for jokes.
That somebody is Bluebottle, and the collection is entitled
So Long, and Thanks For Laughing. However, as to be expected from
someone with wit enough to appreciate the writings of Douglas Adams, the collection is (with
the exception of some real 'groaners' in the Star Wars section) quite funny.
Bluebottle needs your help, however. A massive community like h2g2 is perfectly positioned
to delve through the massive quantity of lame jokes that flit endlessly through the digital
lines every day, separating the wheat from the chaff.
One such tasteful (or tasteless, as are some of the laws shown here) selection is a page of
odd laws. The requisite sample here is drawn from the laws of the great state of Alabama:
- It is illegal for a driver to be blindfolded while operating a vehicle.
- Dominoes may not be played on Sunday.
- It is illegal to wear a fake moustache that causes laughter in church.
- Putting salt on a railroad track may be punishable by death.
- Boogers may not be flicked into the wind.
