I don't think that's going to go the way you think it will. Exhibit A: Freeing the Genie

If I recall, that particular genie actually pretty much granted the wishes as they were intended, did he not?

[-] marcos@lemmy.world 36 points 2 days ago

With warnings and advice on how to make better wishes, yes. But it was only because he liked the person making the wishes.

(And yeah, hostile genies are too terrifying for a children's movie.)

I just went to the Legal Department of my Wizard's College, and paid them 5000 gold to craft perfectly worded wishes. I don't recommend it, they're all on fire and smell of sulfur, but they are great lawyers

I'm sure the Unseen University would have a reality altering war amongst the faculty just to figure out what wishes to ask the genie for.

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Well I was already capable of casting wish, so there wasn't a Genie involved

First wish: give my wife twice what I wish for.

Second wish: beat me half to death.

Third wish: profit
