Wish Granted, every time you open your wallet 1000$ worth of pennies fall out, but as every penny falls out, more are generated, so that the total amount is always1000$. If ever opened in an enclosed space you drown in pennies, too weak to shut your wallet and stem the torrent.

Granted. However, it turns out they are all traps who wish only to rape you until you die, which they do.

Let me try:
I wish North Korea conquered the world for a week.
No, better yet, I wish there were a televized debate between Osama bin Laden, Glenn Beck, and various other radical luminaries, and at the end they have to keep going until they agree upon something important.

Wish granted. They very easily agree to disagree.

Have fun with this one. "Good" is relative. One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.

Hawt. They're being trapped by me though, I'm not 18 yet ha!
): i'd rather not have sex with SNSD. Would ruin my image of them. Long walks on the beach is all i want! HOW CAN YOU DO THIS TO ME EVIL GENIE!

Edit: upping the SNSD thing: They just had sex with your parents, your pets, the Denver Broncos, and they haven't showered and they're having their unpleasant times of the lunar cycle.
I wish Idra were the most powerful mod on teamliquid, so he would have the power to arbitrarily ban people. Prepare to be entertained best case, worst case nothing important happens.

the money comes from your nearby bank, good luck explaining to the IRS/police how you happen to be spending missing money. Or huge credit card debt.

How is that bad?

People are going to keep finding loopholes to a wish "I wish for X" by responding with "You get X but everything else dies". Stop it; it's lame

Wish granted, he decides you are the source of all that is wrong with eSports and bans you from ever seeing the site again.

Blizzard goes bankrupt as a company, dropping support for SC2, and bringing Gretech down with them, but using the last of their money to level massive lawsuits against all SCBW leagues and teams in the world. They convincingly win the suit, splitting the money between their executives and dissolving the company, but also destroying SCBW as an eSport.

you can't "corrupt" a wish by doing something completely unrelated to the wish itself as a punishment.
"i wish to be able to teleport"... so the genie KILLS YOU. no. that's not how this works. corrupt the WISH itself, not any externalities. the point of this thread is to come up with ways to word desires that give you precisely what you want, no more no less.
for example, the wish above, "I wish I had the ability to teleport myself including anything else I'm in contact with to any location I desire." can be corrupted as follows:
"when you attempt to teleport, being in contact with the ground, you rip a hole in the earth, causing a massive hole where you left. furthermore, wherever you teleported will have tons and tons of raw earth dropped on top of it, likely crushing whatever it was you wanted to get to anyway. additionally, you are now teleported several hundred feet above your intended location (since the chunk of earth came with you and you are on top of it), you will have to jump and will likely break bones, etc."
notice the corruption is strictly on the power granted, not some externality he didn't even request (like "training" next to the sun) etc. Can't I just jump before I teleport to avoid teleporting the surface I'm standing on as well. I assumed I could control what I teleport and what I don't want to teleport.
