Illinois Town Wants To Outlaw Eye-Rolling

[ralph wiggum]

Next time you're in line at the grocery store and you roll your eyes at the person with two carts full of items refusing to leave the 10-items-or-fewer line, you might be in trouble with the law -- at least if you live in Elmhurst, Illinois. Officials of the Chicago suburb are looking into finding a way of putting an end to the practice by legal means.

The idiocy stems from a recent city council meeting where an Elmhurst resident was ejected from the room after rolling her eyes in reaction to something that was said by a council member.

Members of the Elmhurst city council have asked the City Attorney to look into the creation of a "disturbance and disorderly conduct" violation and to see if eye-rolling could somehow be shoehorned into its definition.

Illinois state law defines disorderly conduct is "an act in such unreasonable manner as to alarm or disturb another, or to provoke a breach of the peace."

Or exasperated sigh. In that case, I'm going to get my money's worth and curse the person out.

There are a surprising number of women who can do all three at once.

All of the idiots that support eye-rolling office should be voted out of office.

If I lived there, that council would be worrying more about their heads rolling than eyes.
