I wish for more genies. I wish that I could wish for more wishes. I wish for the ability to grant my own wishes. I wish that every wish I’ve ever made/will make comes true. I wish for the genie to lose the ability to count.

Devil’s advocate here. The whole point of having the wish-giver be a sentient being is to filter bullshit loopholes like that. I like the idea of a highly moderate genie that takes his job seriously

Historically genie (Jinn) wishes are always Monkey Paws, you just got shitted on six ways from Sunday, not least of which is being turned into a djinn.

Alithea Binnie : There’s no story about wishing that is not a cautionary tale. None end happily. Not even the ones that are supposed to be jokes.

Genie : But you and I are the authors of this story, and we can avoid all traps.

Just use a lot of “ands” in the first wish. I wish for a pile of money and a jetpack and a lava lamp. Now I still have two wishes left

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

  • The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author’s website, for instance).
  • The comic must be a complete story.
  • If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
  • You may post comics from others or your own.
  • If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
  • The comic can be in any language, but if it’s not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post’s ‘body’ field (note: you don’t need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
  • Politeness.
  • Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.
