Best I can come up with is SCORNS, but I can't justify "no more" as "corn" ...

A man walking along a California beach was deep in prayer.
All of a sudden, he said out loud "Lord, grant me one wish".
Suddenly the sky clouded above his head and in a booming voice the Lord said "Because you have tried to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one wish". The man said "Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive over anytime I want".
The Lord said "Your request is very materialistic. Think of the enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking. The supports that would be required to reach the bottom of the Pacific! The concrete and steel it would take! I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things. Take a little more time and think of another wish, a wish you think would honour and glorify Me".
The man thought about it for a long time.
Finally, he said "Lord, I wish that I could understand women. I want to know how they feel inside, what they are thinking when they give me the silent treatment, why they cry, what they mean when they say 'nothing', and how I can make a woman truly happy".
The Lord replied "You want two lanes or four on that bridge?"

A small repost once every other decade is fully acceptable, I think...

Lighten up, Francis.
"They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers! Can I get an amen?"

That joke was originally told by Adam.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

And did you ever drive on the bridge, then ?

I couldn't afford the toll.

Good one, I love to start my day with a good joke.

Only a real simp would need to ask such questions and only a simp would be dumb enough to go to the guy who played that prank on us and actually ask them.
honey the codewitch wrote: I wish that I could understand women. Yes, my son, that makes you a simp.
honey the codewitch wrote: I want to know how they feel inside, what they are thinking when they give me the silent treatment That's none of your business. All you need to know is that it's your fault and it's unforgivable.
honey the codewitch wrote: why they cry

I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

I'm not actually particularly interested in women, it was just a joke.

I know. That's also a good way to dodge that bullet.

Depends on the party. My personal favorite used to be missile away parties.
