      riddle...

      in italy there was a law passed... immediately after the law was passed people bought a certain style of clothing. what was the clothing? what was the law?

      yes or no questions only... i'll help you a little along the way if it ends up taking forever.

      some helpful guidelines...

      -the clothing can be worn at all times.
      -the clothing can be worn by both men and women.
      -the clothing has a certain design to it... it's not necessarily from a certain company... the design is what's important.

      that's all i can think of for now.

      Um, was it something like.. "All citizens of Italy must honor the country and wear its flag on your clothing!" ? Something similar?

      ..god knows, then. I know about banning clothes, but...

      Oh, how about "you can't wear white socks in court". I think that's law wherever they speak Danish. o_O

      no, that law itself had absolutely nothing to do with clothes... that's the kicker.

      don't be fooled... this is a hard one... it took me 30 minutes of asking yes or no questions to get it.

      Okay..how about:

      "You must not sneeze openly or into your hand" (this was once a law in spain, I think)

      And then people went and bought hankercheifs..

      If not, it's yesno question time.

      edit: handercheifs isn't clothes. otherwise that would of been a good anwser i think.

      no. you can go through the list here... ie.

      is said clothing pants?

      is said clothing socks?

      is said clothing a hat?

      is said clothing a shirt?

      is said clothing a coat?

      then after you get that you can go through designs... because said clothing has a certain design.

      no, color doesn't really matter... but there are two colors on the shirt.

      no words, just a simple design on the front.

      Were there too many nude people walking around, forcing them to pass a law that stated, "All persons must atleast wear a T-shirt" or something?

      When you said "people" bought a certain type of clothing, was it just regular people, was it a group of certain people, or does that not matter at all?

      considering i've said that the law had nothing to do with clothing or the mandatory wearing of clothing for that matter, it is not perfectly reasonable.

      and i'll move it to the lounge if i must just so i don't have people like you doing this.

      Is it a reflective shirt? A law saying anybody who rides a bike (or some vehicle like that) must wear a certain shirt? A reflective one?

      anyone, young or old.

      it does matter, because for the most part it was people of a certain age that bought the shirts... but the law effected everyone, not just these certain people. i hope that makes sense... it will once you get the answer.

      yes it did, it suggested that anyone without clothes on could be molested by police officers... the law has nothing to do with clothing.

      the law had nothing to do with clothing.

      i'll give you a huge hint... people wore the shirts in order to avoid having to adhere to the law.

      also, the design is very important... and if you know the design the answer will quickly follow.

      So these people were part of a protest group? Or were they literally allowed to not obey the law if they had them on?

      Is it something like "anyone who doesn't show signs of liking circles will be hanged and beheaded" and so everyone went and got t shirts with circles on them?
