Little, Normal Things that Will Feel Illegally Weird in Michigan
Have you ever done something that is a completely normal, fine thing to do but it just somehow feels so wrong you almost think it's illegal?
Every state has their own "things" or their own "quirks" that are weird to everyone else who is not from there but here in Michigan we've got quite a few of our own things that are so engrained in us, it would be almost illegal to stray from it.
Strange Michigan Laws
While we're not exactly talking about things that are ACTUALLY illegal here in Michigan, we feel like we should still go over a few so nobody gets confused here.
Of course you've got your regularly, illegal-everywhere kinds of things but here in Michigan it is still on the books (or at least they were as of October 2020) that:
- On Sundays you can't buy a car, nor can a man scowl at his wife
- Women can't get a haircut without permission from their husbands
- Pigs are not allowed to roam free in Downtown Detroit...unless they have a nose ring.
- You still can't use a decompression chamber to kill a dog (we're glad this one is still very much a law...what kind of monster was the reason for this one?)
