Want to make a wish? Just ask the Monkey’s Paw! No strings attached.*
Just create a post that starts with “I wish ___”. Other users will then grant you the wish, and probably not how you intended.

Granted. You go through the same circumstances again with no knowledge of the "undo", make the same choices, get the same results that made you push the undo button in the first place, you push the button again, and you end up reliving the unpleasant experience for infinity in an endless loop - instead of moving on to something more pleasant.
Yeah this is such an obvious conclusion to this wish, if everything is undone why would your memories be the only thing immune from that?
