    Have you ever tried to clean the stuff up after it dried for a couple of days? It’s worse than paint.

    I think the Dept. of Signage needs some grammar lessons. The double quotes used would lead one to believe that they don’t really mean it. In other words the sign is “ILLEGAL”.

    #2 Damn right.
    I had some little bastards spray a can of the stuff onto my new fence a couple of years ago and you can still see where it adhered.
    I’d have dearly liked to douche them with a couple of cans of it as payback, see how they liked it…

    That’s ok. It is still perfectly legal to possess, and openly carry, any California approved firearm in Los Angeles, as long as the magazine or ammunition is separately carried. This, I can assure, has numerous panties in tight knots.
    This Halloween, I will be carrying my Glock 26. And two mags about one foot away from it, loadable in about four seconds.
    Ha ha ha ha ha.

    Who the hell has silly string?

    I thought all of it, like most ammo and tampons were being used in the war?

    If you outlaw silly string, only outlaws will have silly string.

    I believe the use of double quotes is supposed to suggest italics or boldface type, like a roadside stand advertising ‘Try “OUR” hotdogs’ or ‘”TRY” our hotdogs’. It doesn’t occur to them to actually use italics or boldface (easily done with their Magic Marker)

    Silly String is highly flammable. There are videos of Silly String striking birthday candles, etc. and it becoming a flamethrower. That must have been what the problem was or the Silly String hardening over time as mentioned above.

    It’s only “illegal” for a day and a half?

    “Ignorance of the law is no excuse.”

    And there’s no excusing ignorant laws.
