A psychologist was walking along a Hawaiian beach when he kicked a bottle poking up through the sand. Opening it, he was astonished to see a cloud of smoke and a genie smiling at him.

"For your kindness," the genie said, "I will grant you one wish!" The psychologist paused, laughed, and replied, "I have always wanted a road from Hawaii to California."

The genie grimaced, thought for a few minutes and said, "Listen, I'm sorry, but I can't do that! Think of all the pilings needed to hold up the highway and how long they'd have to be to reach the bottom of the ocean. Think of all the pavement. That's too much to ask."

"OK," the psychologist said, not wanting to be unreasonable. "I'm a psychologist. Make me understand my patients. What makes them laugh and cry, why are they temperamental, why are they so difficult to get along with, what do they really want? Basically, teach me to understand what makes them tick!"

The genie paused, and then sighed, "Did you want two lanes or four?"

:roll:

*Ba dum tssss*

Thank you everyone, please try the veal.

I've heard a version of that joke involving a Newfoundlander who wanted a fixed link to the mainland... or else to have the federal government turned from crooked incompetents to selfless public servants.

Same response from the genie.

And that was BEFORE the sponsorship scandal...

Hey, being a very passionate and emotional person I found that joke funny.

i have heard that same joke 1000 times before. most of the time it is is a man who asks to understand women. and then the genie builds the bridge.

Are there any variations of this joke where it ends up being funny?

hahaha. funniest thing in the thread

No, but you're welcome to give it a shot:

"OK," the (person) said, not wanting to be unreasonable. "(men are stupid)!"
