 Topic: Loki Mask or Genie LampPosted: July 06 2012 at 12:24 |

you found an old box and in the box you spotted two objects, a wooden old/anchien greenish mask and a dusty oil-lamp, and a note "If you find this box your eyes will land on two objects of mystic and wonders, two objects who will grant you power, fortune and luck, but it can also lend you greed, lust and pride, but you can only pick one or none, pick two or you and your closest will be cursed, pick none and you will never see the light of day,
 ,  ,,,, you can only pick between the two of them, the only clues as to what to doo with them is up to you to find out.... GOOD Luck master" or something like that, it is hard to write a prophesy on the get-got  you ether become  or you get this one  |

Genie- because even though you get shackled, you do get to live forever and I would just shrink myself down super tiny and live in that lamp. As soon as someone eventually wishes you free, you are set for life.

Are you too young to have experienced the lava lamp?

Lamp, then wish for mask, Bill Gates' money, and immunity from all magical "gotcha's".

There is no act more pretentious and self-indulgent than labeling another's art as pretentious and self-indulgent.

Why do you need Bill Gates money?... Wouldn't Jim Carrey money be enough to get by in a lifetime?

I know this is sidetracking this thread a bit, but I'm reminded of a joke I heard the other day:
An IT systems administrator is walking along, when he comes across a magic lamp. A genie promptly appears and grants him three wishes. So he wishes for a hard drive with linitless capacity. However much he wants to put on it, there is always room for more and then some. And it appears, about the size of a matchbox. The genie reminds him that he's still got another two wishes, and without hesitating he says: Another 2 of those. |
