I wish for one more wish

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

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?

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?

Daxter101@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 81d

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

I wish for more genies

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

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.
