Poll: If you found a magic lamp and were given this choice...

[Hayabusa Rider]

You find a magic lamp on a beach.
The genie does not give you 3 wishes, he asks "Do wish to have what you deserve?"

You do not get to ask any questions, nor give any qualifiers, and you MUST choose.

Yes or No.

How do you answer?

 

[LordMaul]

HELL no.

 

[Wallydraigle]

Wow, what an interesting question. I'd have to go with a no on that one. That could mean a lot of different things.


**Edit: I would want what I deserve, because good or bad, it's what I deserve, but I wouldn't want something so profound to be decided by some random genie. Since no qualifiers are given as far as I know the genie might ask some bug I stepped on what I deserve and go from there. It's just too dependent on perspective. So I guess while I would want what I deserve, I wouldn't want the genie to give it to me, so my answer is still no

 

[KingNothing]

Nope. Among other things, I deserve to go to hell when I die. God worked that one out for me, wouldn't want to screw it up.

 

[Ender]

I don't want to find out that this Genie's sense of 'what I deserve' to be rotting in hell for all of eternity just because he happened to be twisted in the head.

 

[Vonkhan]

awww naw, hell NAW!!!

 

[Anubis]

no fing way

 

[HappyPuppy]

I would answer in the affirmative. I am going to get what I deserve sooner or later, anyway. Why not reap the rewards of my actions now?

 

[clicknext]

If it were EVERYTHING I deserve then there would be some very good things and some very bad things. I'd say no.

Basing my opinion on a glimpe of what you said in the 'are you a good person' thread, I hope you like a pitchfork up the rear.

Among my other attributes, I have a somewhat wry sense of humor.

However if the genie offered to give everybody what they deserve, I would tell him to go for it.

 

[Looney]

Maybe he would give you a cookie if you were a bad person so you'll get fat and die.

He's a genie. If he's worth his salt as a genie he can hook some schmuck up with a two million calorie cookie

 

[conjur]

Yes, definitely.

I've sacrificed a fair amount in my lifetime to please and appease and, damnit! It's *MY* turn!!

Mmmm... super cookie... *drools*

 

[m2kewl]

NNOOOOOO!! don't turn me into a midget!!!!


wait, what was the question again...?

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

If I deserve it, why not have it? If I don't deserve it, then I'll be happy that I've already had it.

 

[idNut]

Cool thread.

I don't know what I deserve, I'm a nice guy at time but at other times I wish for misery upon everyone else. I'd probably go to limbo.

 

[rudeguy]

dont rub the lamp if you dont want to see the genie!!!

 

[boi]

no
