Things that should be banned

While I'm not normally in favour of legal heavy handedness, over the past few days a number things necessitating bans have come to my attention

1) Kitchens with single sinks

Is there anything more infuriating than trying to wash dishes in a single-sink?  And there's no way that using a single sink dishwashing is less efficient in the long run.  Simply put, a requirement for at least a double sink should be in all building codes (and retrofits required for those kitchens not in compliance).

2) The wearing of three piece suits in the summer

I get it that all kinds of guys with three piece suits don't have that many opportunities to wear them, but that doesn't mean it's OK to wear them when it's 30 degrees outside (just think about all of the AC costs).  A further benefit is that this ban will prevent those who might be inclined to wear a three-piece suit in the summer from looking like doofuses.  Everybody wins with this one.

3) Tomatoes

Just because they're the grossest. Yuck.

I don't understand your problem with single kitchen sinks any more than I would understand it being a problem that there might be only a single bathtub in a bathroom. A single kitchen sink is what I had in my NYC apartment for more than 20 years. Perhaps you could come to grips with the notion of using a dishpan . . . they were "all the vogue" from 1850 to 1950 (before double sinks started to become fashionable).
