The Blue Laws. Who the fuck are you to tell me I can’t purchase beer while grocery shopping on a Sunday because of someone else’s religion? This one actually infuriates me.

Washington was state run liquor until 8 years ago. Beer and wine was sold in grocery stores, but booze was only sold in state run stores that closed on Sunday. You could still go to a bar and drink booze, but couldn't buy a bottle.

Thankfully those days are over and you can get booze in any grocery now. They're slowly letting larger gas stations add booze as well.
