Tongue if you were a genie...

If you were a genie, and someone asked you this wish: "I wish that you would not grant me this wish". WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

fulfill the wish by doing nothing
he ask to get a wish less, so that's what he should get

doesn't matter if you say you grant the wish or not, you as a genie have to obey him by not granting it that's his wish

But by doing that, you are breaking the bond of disobeying the masters commands. By not granting the wish, you are granting his wish.

It is an answerless question

no kruffing kidding, thats why you asked this stupid question. If I was in that situation, I'd do nothing or say "I'm not the kind of genie who can grant that wish."

Oh wait a second! eek! I'm NOT a genie! Why should I care? roll eyes (sarcastic)

I have a very active Imagination and I have been thinking about this Situation For Many years. If I had a Genie I would wish that I could reach into any tv or picture and make any item I grab real and pull them out. Think ABOUT THE POSSIBILITIES! Tell me how that's not a good wish.

But by doing nothing, you grant the wish, and you were requested by your master not to. Therefore, you cannot do anything. Here is another example of the same type of question:

"A town decided one day to prohibit lying. Anybody who was caught lying was to be hanged immediately. One man, who had been honest his entire life, went to the cop shop and said, "I am about to be hanged for lying to you." "

He is lying, and therefore should be hanged. However, if they hang him, he would be telling the thruth.

He wished the wish was not granted. So how can you grant that wish? Thus, 3 wishes left.

It is impossible to answer. You could argue this til the 'cows come home,' and there still would be no resolution.
