If you could make up any law, with no questions asked and everyone would go along with it, what would it be? http://www.myresistance.net/smf/Smil...ult/smiley.gif
Mine would be: All new TVs must come complete with an Amiga A1200

Great first law. :thumbs:
How about: Every citizen is required to play video games for a minimum of 2 hours per week.
Any objection to video gaming when hollyoaks or big brother is on will be liable to a £50 fine
All assignments done by anyone with the name Submeg must be given full marks :thumbs:
Just don't get me started ok?
You don't have enough space on the server for me to add to this topic.
Best one yet. I can completely relate to that one. :thumbs:Quote:

Just thought of a new law.
"Microsoft must buy everybody who gets the 'Ring of Death' on the 360 a PS3 as an apology!"
That is a sweet law. :cool:
Classicamiga members are exempt from paying taxes.
Think of how much of our money goes to the state. Imagine if you could spend all of that on productive stuff instead. Like booze and games.
Hmm, well no funny law ideas yet, but I would enjoy this one for now.
"When prices are raised, incomes are too."
How about women are not allowed to nag if you are gaming and not paying attention to them unless they're naked (mum's not included).
How about People who watch reality TV programmes should be fined
Not really sure how much though. Would be quite good as you end up hearing about them on the news all the time which is annoying. And they can interfere with the regular TV shedules.
Any individual spelling awesome "awsome" should be banned.
This is an anti-flaming post.
On the subject of spelling, how about people who miss the ue of the end of analogue, and the u out of colour, as well as others. I think those people ought to have compulsary english lessons.
I think that the american write color and not colour, same with a lot of words like parlor/parlour or armor/armour. Both are correct. And you can even write analog without ue.
Here here!!:yesyes:Quote:

- Thursday must be for: same as Monday or Thursday or even Wednesday
- Friday must be for: whatever you want to do, except work
Interesting law...maybe I should suggest this to my local MP....

It is also interesting to learn that the -our of English words actually derives from Norman Anglo-French origin, after their occupation of England. And the -or versions were actually the original way words were often spelt prior to this.
