If you say I hate the automotive designers who can’t design properly angled headlights, I’m criminalizing your shit take too

Gas-powered leaf blowers should be banned, or at least heavily regulated

Oh and personal ownership for pickup trucks should require proof of need. Otherwise, have a communal pool that people can borrow from on the off chance they are actually hauling something

Pick ups should at least only come bare bones. If you have a fancy interior, it’s bot ment for work, therefore you don’t need it. Same with supercars. Oh your car has to be obnoxiously loud because you need a v10 on the road? No you don’t, go to a racetrack. Oh wait, they have noise regulations there too.

How is that controversial you dweeb. Say something actually controversial like “all bread tastes the same, what are white people on?”

In most places they are, but cops don’t give 2 shits about enforcing it to the point that nobody knows there are dB limits to vehicles

I had a shitbox with a piece of pipe I welded on after the exhaust fell off once (it was fully legal and passed state inspection). I got pulled for driving the speed limit and the cop told me I was breaking noise ordinance. I ask which ordinance and all they did was fume at me that they can’t “name it off the top of their head”. I’m sure the cop never pulled over someone in a giant diesel truck or a 100k sports car for making noise.

Lawns should be banned except in situations where there is genuine a recreational purpose for the public (sports fields, dog parks etc.)

Schools should have a public health focus for each term and students should be exposed to the importance of a particular public health issue, the consequences of failing to address that issue, the victims of the issue, and ways to manage or mitigate the issue. I’m talking seatbelts, polio, diabetes, you name it. Get a person who has a traumatic brain injury who is employed as a public speaker to meet with students and talk about what happened to them when they didn’t wear a seatbelt and the ways that it affects their life to this day, show documentaries about victims of polio, that sort of thing.

Chopsticks are the most versatile implement in the cutlery world.

Most ingredients in domestic cleaning products should be banned or at the least restricted because we don’t need the widespread use of things like bacteriostatic agents and we don’t need to be exposing children and waterways to that kind of shit.

Most advertising campaigns that are against addiction are actually an op and they serve to encourage people to engage in those behaviours and to relapse.

There should be a hotline that the government operates which records a question or concern that you have and then communicates this to a qualified expert in the relevant field who then contacts you to provide you with a response based on the best, most up-to-date science. The responses should be collated into a sort of FAQ/encyclopaedia with written responses and short video lectures so that the most commonly asked questions can be addressed immediately and so that this can help guide the development of educational curricula.

That chopstick take is wild. Spork destroys in all categories.

It’s not that the spork is the best at anything, but there’s no food it can’t shovel into my gaping maw.

Can’t cut

Can’t scoop a liquid

Mainly need two to approach the power of a fork

I think chopsticks might be the least versatile implement?

Don’t get me wrong, I much prefer the experiential elements of eating by chopstick and slurping down the last of your soup is vastly more enjoyable then using a spoon to slowly consume the meal

But the implements are, in the main, objectively less effective
