Annuals Find The Elusive Genie Loophole

by theshark

I’ve never understood why people sometimes ask you “if you found a genie lamp, what 3 wishes would you ask for?” First of all, if I found a genie lamp, you wouldn’t know because I wouldn’t tell you, I’m greedy like that. Secondly, what do you care what my 3 wishes are? Worry about your own 3 wishes, hombre. What really irks me is when I actually decide to answer to appease the douchebag and say “I would wish for unlimited wishes” and he/she whines “you can’t do that!” Like they are the proud keepers of the imaginary genie rules of the hypothetical question they just asked me. Well, Annuals seem to share the same penchant for breaking the genie rules as me, however, I think they might have found a loophole around the “unlimited wishes” clause:

Here’s something to keep your mind occupied on this boring last Friday in August (and possibly your last summer Friday, depending on where you work) – what are the 3 worst or perhaps most mundane wishes you could ask a genie to grant for you? Here’s my list, feel free to comment back with your own:

  • Power to calculate tip without looking at the restaurant bill
  • Ability to survive 3 gunshot wounds but not 4
  • A really good tan
