What if you ask something already evil?

Give the genie to a complete psycho who wishes for everything to end (including himself), would the genie fuck up the wish (and how?) because it is what he does or would he for once agree with the wish and grant it?

Reminds me of an episode of Ghost Busters. They had this kind of thing too, but the wish granter was an asshole. When someone wished himself endless money, he was drowned in coins etc. (actual contents of episode I don't remember though, that must've been like.... 15 years ago?)

Wish granted, you know how it feels to be tortured, your mind is traumatized.

I wish my musical taste would become mainstream

Granted, now your favorite bands sell-out and start producing crap songs to satisfy the need of the vast majority of people that like to hear the same beat over and over again with no meaning.
I wish i would never die except for when i decide to.

I think I would like the ability to control time. Not quite sure tho, seems kinda scary. But i guess, as long as i follow the spiderman ideology (with great power comes great responibility) i might be alright! :D

any inputs on controlling time?


the only way for humanity to measure time is by a change happening, such as, the clock shows two different points in time in two different "slices" of time, in a more fundamental sense, if every electron, proton, quark, and neutron is on the exact same place, we cannot tell that there have been any time inbetween.

in other words: the ability to control time is equal to the ability to control change of matter and radiation.
change of matter and radiation is in a fundamental way just movement.
so to control time, is the same as to control movement velocity.
movement velocity of atoms is also the same as temperature.
so what you actually want is the ability to control the temperature of any object, molecule or atom.
you already have this ability, by throwing a rock you have changed the movement velocity of the rock and thus changed its rate of time (see relativity in physics) as well as its temperature in comparison to [insert object].

you never stated what degree of control you wanted over time, if I were a vengeful genie, I would measure your overall strength in your body and halve it, because then you might appreciate the control over time you once had, and you still have it, it just happens to be half of what you had before, after all, I have fulfilled your wish by doing so.

i remember that awful joke reading your thread and seems like it fits perfectly:

+ Show Spoiler [nsfw] +

a guy is granted wish by a genie.
genie: "what's your heart's desire?"
guy: "i want a dick so long that it touches the floor"
...
the genie fulfills the desire and the poor guy has no more legs.

Wish granted. People still troll the internet of course, but now nobody can think of anything to accuse them of, and snide little cackling trolls are running riot all over your favourite websites.

Imagine you found a magic lamp who's contents include an all powerful genie. This genie is charged with granting one wish to any individual who finds it and then promptly causing itself and it's lamp to disappear for one thousand years. The genie in this lamp used to be a regular human and as such still contains many fallacies of humanity including making mistakes, anger at being held captive for eternity, and a very dark sense of humor.

You may have one wish.

but the genie is vengeful.

He will try to ruin your wish. He is forced to grant your wish perfectly as stated and without question, but he may subtly alter the world around you in a most evil way to make your wish come true. For example, if you ask for infinite wishes not only would that spell infinite torture but the genie could almost certainly kill off everything you hold dear as you start using them.

State your wish! Try to undermine other people's wishes!


My wish:

I wish I could fly.

I'd just wish for the genie to be set free. He'd probably be grateful and surprised enough to grant another afterwards.

Im too dumb to understand this I would have given bad calibrations with the timecontrol, trying to slow it down instantly stops time, trying to speed it up leads to instant death

Geenie grants the psycho infinite life and makes the person quadraplegic. Geenie makes sure the world never ends.
