Reply to comment by Oba936 in [WP] All adults can make a pilgrimage once a year to a genie and attempt to make a wish. However, the genie will only grant the wish if it's never be asked for before in all history. Most people never get their wish. On your 18th birthday you make the trip and are surprised to get your wish. by shadowkyros
Nice! The ending was unexpected

Peak Itachi Uchiha vs. pre-Namek Krillin. Krillin knows not to look in Itachi's eyes but that's the only prep either of them has.

Reply to [WP] You and your Ex hate each other. Neither of you want to see the other ever again. To achieve this, you both agree to try something: One of you drinks a death draught while the other drinks a potion of immortality. X years later, you both are standing face-to-face once more. by T1nkerer

Reply to comment by Zeeman9991 in [WP] A bar called “The Alibi” that’s notorious for being just that.. an alibi. Often packed with ex-cons, the customers of The Alibi adhere to a silent, but strict, code: If they say they were here, we saw them. They’ll always back an alibi, no questions asked. by JelloStaplerr

For those special moments...
Those important times you want to share...
Or all of those occasions when you wanted to say yes...
On those days, in those brief, precious seconds...
Find it in yourself to COME ON DOWN TO Cici's!!!
At Cici's, say yes to our snow powdered brownies, our grease covered, store-bought pizza, and our signature dough baked with cheese and parmesan!
After, hit the links with your family! See if YOU can beat the Skeeball JACKPOT!
A confetti effect streams down the TV screen while the camera whips around Cici's, before landing on the employees beaming at the audience.
"Come join the Cici's family!"
The employees grin ear to ear as though a man behind the camera holds a gun on them.

There are many people that I wish could get this kind of reception from their parents.
Damn onion ninjas. ;-)

I would liken this to the classic lawyer-ish genie behavior of using whatever interpretation and loopholes the djinn wishes to use. In one instance bartering could be considered an intent of currency, in another instance the djinn would claim it doesn’t apply on matter of technicality.
The challenge is to word the request and attempt to gain the favor of the djinn while not expressly attempting to do so in a way that would piss off the genie or tip your hand that you’re attempting a manipulation. I wouldn’t want to be on the disfavorable side of a djinn that thought I was attempting to manipulate them.

Reply to comment by DrewTheHobo in [WP] The queen is dead. The kingdom burns around you. Her soldiers fight on, but the invader is relentless.

I’m inclined to agree, but those types of people wouldn’t make for as good a story. Better to make one about the more interesting outlier.

If I was in that guy’s position, I would have wished for a device that I could tell a proposed wish and it would tell me whether it was still grantable- would make his job far easier. Plus it would block anyone else from getting a similar device so he wouldn’t have any competition in the wish consulting agency.

Reply to comment by TacoMagic in [WP] As a necromancer, you are in the business of reanimating the dead for a few days at a time. Families say goodbye, businesses get cooperate secrets, scientists test their drugs, etc. The more they pay, the better they are restored and the longer they stay, as it does take a lot out of you. by chacham2
Holy cow!! That twist! Gzuz, this was a good read.

I think most people would be a lot more placid and stay inside the base for longer than 10 days. Most wouldn’t even think to question the AI in such depth.

Reply to [WP] A hilariously honest commercial for a terrible restaurant. by KinglyMidas
Imagine the most divine steak you've ever tasted. The meat melting in your mouth as you bite into it. The juices eking out onto the plate as you cut into the succulent sirloin. Live in that moment. Let it seep into your bones.
Now wake the fuck up and realize you can't afford that shit anymore with a family.
For those moments when you're forced to settle, we hope you'll choose Golden Corral. We don't try our hardest, and we don't do our best, but you'll take it anyways because it's better than McDonald's for the fourth fucking time this week.
