Couldn’t you just use the first two wishes for immortality and omnipotence and then wish the gene into an infinite loop or something?

Ignorance aint always Bliss
Genies hate this one trick.
I liked the one from that classic twilight zone episode better wherte the (i believe mathematician) told the genie to "get lost"
Genies hate computer software developers
Even if any of the three wishes are deemed valid or invalid the net result will be nothing happens, no?
First rule: don't fuck with djinn, hags, or fae. Demons maybe, at least you know what they want.
When the demon tries to trip you up by asking for tea and cookies to be left out at night:
Does everyone not understand this yet? The only winning move with a genie is to not play.
I think I saw a video once explaining how the only winning move is to make your wish be to let the genie grant you what you desire most.
Because only the genie as the wish granter has access to all possibilities a wish good grant, but you don't, so your wish could always be misinterpreted, while the genies knowledge cannot be.
You are now dead. Killed by 100 million dollars, in gold, falling onto your head.
Genie would know you don't desire to die though, or that you would want it in gold, so that wouldn't happen.
-
I wish to know the true name of the genie who is granting me wishes.
-
I wish [genie's true name] to be freed, mortal and without magical powers, now and henceforth.
You are now trapped in a bottle.
Wrong, and geniephobic.
