12 Illegal Things We've All Done Once And Never Knew
#1
Did you know that every single day, without knowing it, you could potentially be committing a crime? I certainly didn't! Apparently that time I sold my old phone eBay for $20 and didn't report my earnings, I committed a HUGE crime! If that's not ridiculous enough, you're in for a big surprise when you read the rest of these weird laws!
#1 Singing "Happy Birthday To You" in public.
Copyright infringement yo!
#2 In Oregon or Minneapolis, it's illegal to towel dry your dishes.
I don't care if you need that plate right now -- you have to wait!
#3 Being in possession of permanent markers in a public place.
Due to anti-graffiti laws, in some states it's actually illegal to purchase permanent markers if you're under 18. WTF?
#4 Unlocking your iPhone.
But apparently, jail-breaking is still okay.
#5 Using a fake name online.
#6 Selling on eBay without declaring your earnings.
It's easy to forget, but you have to declare every bit of income you earned in a given tax year.
#7 Ad-blockers.
You know those pesky, annoying ads that everyone hates to see? Apparently not viewing them is like not paying the fare to view the content you're viewing... which is theft.
#8 In some states, it's actually illegal to write things that someone might find disturbing... what?!
Better hide your zombie fan fiction!
#9 Connecting to unsecure WiFi networks.
#10 Having saggy pants in Mansfield, Louisiana.
Now this is a law I can get behind.
#11 If you live in Newark, New Jersey, don't even think about trying to buy ice cream after 6 PM.
Unless you have a doctors note.
#12 If you're a resident of Alabama and you play Dominoes on Sundays?
You're a serious, bad ass law breaker.
