Here comes another post about a state law that still exists on the books and why it is ridiculous (to see them all,
click here):
Jonesboro, Georgia
"It is illegal to say 'Oh, Boy'."
Oh, Boy! This is a good one. I want you to think of the last time that you said "Oh, Boy" and it offended someone. You can't, can you? That's because there is absolutely no reason that saying "Oh, Boy" should be a bad thing. The only reason to say it is if something good happened. However, I did just think of two reasons it might be considered bad.....wait, make that three. 1) A redneck is referring to a black guy. 2) Some redneck is about rape an unsuspecting guy in the woods. And 3) A redneck was happy that his fat girlfriend just had another little boy and not a little girl. Only those first two might, a big might, be offensive enough to make the saying illegal, but even then, this law is just stupid.

"Rookie, he said 'Oh', now we wait until he says 'Boy' and we can arrest this punk!"
"Sarge, I'm pretty sure the law says the offender has to say 'Oh' and 'Boy' back-to-back."
"Interesting interpretation, but I disagree. Oh Boy, he said 'Boy', let's mace this bastard!"
"Ah, Sarge." |
