Lets assume that genies grant wishes literally, but will twist your words. How do you wish without unintended consequences? Typical rules of no more wishes, no resurrection, no forced love, no altering the past, can’t defy logic, can’t break physical laws, can’t create paradoxes, and can’t affect higher powers (this is one tough genie!).

  • My first wish is that my wishes are not corrupted, and they are fulfilled to the intent in my heart and mind without any trickery of bullshit.

    My second wish is to have the ability to draw extremely well.

    My third wish is that I can bring my drawings to life.

    The last two powers will enable me to have infinite wishes by simply drawing things like immortality pills, scifi technology, and just straight up money if I wanted.

      Genie grants your wishes but wipes your memory of having made these wishes and makes you dislike drawing :)

        Doesn’t even have to be that… “bring to life…” so you draw an immortality pill, will it to life, and it then eats you before you have the chance to swallow it.

        When it comes to life, it’s of course going to be alive, and scale wasn’t mentioned.
