Honestly, based genie. Instead of fucking you over by twisting your wish into something negative, he fucks you over by spending time on small details. At least the latter will likely result in something you actually want, whereas the former will probably suck.
Comic Strips
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.

These aren't small details, they are crucial details.
After all that I still get brittle bone disease!?!
What? You said you wanted your Bones less dense, do you know how much bone I had to remove to let you fly with hummingbird wings?
Probably an autistic genie. It's important to get the details right!
Not picking telepathic will is the dumbest shit I've ever seen.
given this genie's thoroughness your brain would have to be 100x as heavy
Look, the 800lb brain man is flying!
I would have just taken telepathic will so that it just ends there.
You're the second person to use 'telepathic will' in these comments and both times are vague as to what that means.
Telekinesis that I can control at will.
Is that a deliberate conscience telepathic effort, or automatic unconscious reflex? (eg. Perhaps you don't want to accidentally hover or float in public.)
Wings? Nah, if I can't fly like Goku I don't want to fly at all.
Would it be possible to have telekinesis, and use the telekinesis to fly, like Mewtwo?
The problem is telepathy doesn't exist in this universe. It seems the genie can rearrange matter into whatever form serves your purpose, but he can't make a wish that allows you to violate the laws of physics.
I would keep it simple and ask for the private keys to a bunch of orphaned/lost Bitcoin wallets from the early days of Bitcoin. Then I can simply claim I mined them back in the day, cash them out, and declare them on my taxes. I get an instant and legal large sum of money. It's not poofed into existence or stolen from someone who's going to come after me.
Alternatively, I might just wish to find a very large nugget of gold in the next hole I dig in my backyard. That would serve the same effect. Or wishing to be the sole winner of the next Powerball ticket I buy would also work.
With genies, if you must deal with them, best to keep things simple. Asking for superhero powers is just asking for trouble. Just ask for various forms of legal money.
