1. I believe attempting suicide is illegal here as well... Plus mine--

I know that in MA there is a law saying that you get a nickel or something if you bring a dead rat to City Hall.

And in Vermont, it is, or was, illegal to whistle underwater.

2. It is illegal in New York

to have sex with a live animal or a dead person, but not illegal to have sex with a dead animal.
