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.

You get invited to a restaurant that is only open once a decade. You get one sandwich. You are given the “good” sandwich. You eat it and look in the kitchen on the way out. You see a severed hand in the meat slicer.

You’re not allowed to leave.
