That's nice. I'd wish for the scientific knowledge to create sustainable fusion. That way I could be rich, famous, and save humanity.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Youd think it would go that way.

"I wish I had my balls back"

ok but like isn't this a great outcome for the human? that dog has to go to school and pay taxes now. jokes on him

Is this why dogs always stare creepily when the lovemaking starts?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

No, that's because they had their balls cut.

wish one: I want to be the best boy/girl

wish two: I want to overcome my fear of the demon cat

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

Just make sure you don't try this with your cat

Dog: I wish my human was never sad and will live forever.

I wish we could eat poop together

Reminds me of this comic which was also made in 2019 or 2020 i believe.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Saw a funny continuation where the dogs first wish is for them to swap bodies and his second wish is that the person couldn't talk.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

Someone posted a version of that in the comments. A bit dark!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

The tragic comedy is when the dog wishes the human can live forever.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That sounds more like cat wishes to me.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

why would a cat lower themselves to the life of a petty human?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Easier to get food that way.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

If you are able to get food with less work than your cat then I'm either jealous of your life or worried about your cat.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

How would the cat know how the food gets there? The human leaves, they come back with food. That would be a great "be careful what you wish for" wish.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

no because now they have to actually work for it and do chores and stuff

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Yeah, they'd find that out. Human in cat body: "No take-backs! Now scoop my poop!"

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'm willing to bet the comic came out first.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

I found a thread discussing this and the claim is that a tweet came first, but i wasn't able to open the imgur link provided. Either way, i definitely saw the comic and not the tweet

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

"I wish for a litterbox with infinite cat poop."

Technically it can already talk using its own language.

To talk with human words requires a bump in intelligence which would end up in severe depression once it realises the dynamics of ifs existence.

As you didn’t wish for that intelligence you’re now stuck with a dog that barks with human vocal cords. Its first wish was made using body language for the genie to pet them. The second wish was to trow a stick.

Technically non-human animal communication isn't language.

Tell that to LLM bros 🙄

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

They know. They just don't want to admit it because of investors.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Lmao. I remember when they got mad because an atari beat up chat-gpt in chess. "Chat-GPT is not a playing-chess thing"

Language = pain

Here's the real genie answer, complete with ironic consequences based on a literal interpretation.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

To talk with human words requires a bump in intelligence which would end up in severe depression once it realises the dynamics of ifs existence.

A bump up in intelligence that allows for speech, doesn't mean it inherently becomes aware of all the existential dread in the universe or becomes unhappy with its station.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

Man I had existential dread at like 3 or 4 when I started wondering what happens after death and what the meaning of this existence is if it's limited to one lifetime... I'm not even bullshitting.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

all the existential dread in the universe
