So I came across this article and most of the facts about Europe are false. Especially, this one about The Netherlands is so weird: "In Sweden and the Netherlands, there are no curtains on the windows."

Huh? Who comes up with these "facts"?

Germany:
There was a warning that people might run around naked here.
Yes, we do have areas where being naked is allowed, and I think we're also a bit more easygoing about it - but it's not like people run around in the streets being naked.

There's also a state where it's illegal to cross state lines with a duck on your head. Can't remember which one though

This isn’t the whole US, just Connecticut, but pickles must bounce. Yes, you read that right, pickles must bounce because 2 guys were selling pickles that didn’t bounce and were “unfit for human consumption.” This was back in 1948 btw.

We had to rename our Fairy Penguins to Little Penguins because people thought fairy was a homophobic slur. Even though it referred to fairies, the supernatural creature.
