Bard: Get in line. I wish for...

Knock knock.

Who’s there?

I wish for one more wish

Knock knock.

Who’s there?

I wish for one more wish

Knock knock.

Who’s there?

Orange

Orange who?

Orange you glad I didn’t say I wish for one more wish?

Edit: if this isn’t a casting of viscous mockery then I don’t know what is.

Edit 2: I forgot the point of the joke, fixed plural problems

I wish for one unrestricted wish

Tar_Alcaran@sh.itjust.works · 16 天前

Then I wish for two more wishes.

Then I wish that wishes are an absolute value.

Then I wish for a million fewer wishes.

Then I wish for 65,536 wishes. The genie crashes with an integer overflow error.

There’s no crash, you just go back to 0. Goodbye.

If num_wishes is a signed int, wouldn’t it overflow back to -65536? I suddenly owe the genie a bunch of wishes?

bstix@feddit.dk · 16 天前

All I have to offer is half a bowl of instant noodles, a lawnmower full of grass and toe nail clippings. So Genie, what do you wish for?

Hugucinogens@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 16 天前

Nah, it doesn’t crash, now you just have to perform 65,535 wishes for the genie.

…I just mentally read that in the voice of Cyclops’s “OPTIC BLAST!”.

Thank you I hate it :p

Susaga@sh.itjust.works · 16 天前

I’m 99% certain everyone who tries thinking of loopholes to get infinite wishes wouldn’t know what to do with them.

threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works · 16 天前

That’s not the point. The fun is to try and push the system until it breaks. I don’t need to actually use any of my infinite wishes once I have them. I’ve already had my fun.
