Several people pointed me to this blogging.la post. Silly string may or may not be legal on Halloween. Given that the law has the word silly IN IT, I wouldn't take it too seriously anyway. PLUS can the silly string merchants who don't get rid of their wares on the 30th get arrested for possession? (Yes, I'm a month behind on reading and posting submissions.)
So what happens if you have a generic version of silly string?
ReplyDeleteWhat bothers me is that there are opening quotation marks on both sides of the quote.
ReplyDeleteMaybe people are illegally dealing Silly String on the streets.

ReplyDeletewow. next goes the whoopee cushions.

They sure found a "brilliant" solution to the problem.
