What part of ‘NO’ don’t you understand
One of the first words a child learns is “No.”
Maybe it’s because they hear it so much.
That’s why I can’t understand why so many people don’t know the meaning of “no” as they get older. It’s the simplest and most-direct of commands.
Actually, they do know the meaning of the two-letter word. They just choose to ignore it. They intentionally disobey.
On the way to work this morning, I compiled a “No” list. Many of them deal with traffic and driving, but I’ve got some others on there, too. Feel free to add your own.

Jake brakes are used on tractor trailer trucks. They are kind of like cruise. When you let off the gas, the jake brake engages to slow you down. It makes a loud clacking noise. A lot of cities say "no jake brakes" because of the noise.
No kidding!
