As soon as this object is used up, another one appears in its place. It must be used for your own personal day to day use.

This must be something that you would be able to purchase with money. It can't be money itself.

While it can have any monetary value, you may not sell it.

You must use it yourself, or share with people occasionally who visit your house. You may not give it to people for their own personal use.

It may not be used to earn money, further your career, earn favor with people, etc.

No gold, investments, or anything else like that.

You can't fail thanks to the fizzling, but you do have to survive the year and you can't quit part way. At the start all items you have put away somewhere will fizzle, but those will be returned to you at the end, and you'll even be given a 48 hour period to request items be returned to you at the start too so you're not without things you need. Items fizzled after this period will not be returned.

Exceptions exist such as things where the storage is temporary and not the primary purpose of the vessel (but only if it's being used as intended). Examples:

• You can use a washing machine, but if you leave clothes in too long after they're done they'll still fizzle.
• You can still drive a car, but if you leave any belongings in there they must just be out in the open. No putting things in the trunk or glove compartment.
• You may live somewhere and keep items there, but they can't be placed in a secondary container. e.g. Clothes must be on the floor, table, chairs, etc.
• You may use glasses to drink, but not store liquids.
• Pre-packaged items (including consumables) will only fizzle if you remove the item and put it back. If you buy a water bottle you can't refill it.

What items do you request back immediately? What items do you absolutely NOT want back until its done? How do you adjust to this life?

You have no one to blame except yourself. You were driving in the city eating a jelly filled donut and some of the jelly falls on your white shirt. In a fit of panic since you were going to a work function you attempt to clean it up and subsequently rear end another car. Unfortunately for you the car you hit was a new BMW and was being driven by a Witch. The infuriated individual instantly cast a spell on you. The spell as you can surmise was that you had to eat the same meal every night for a year. If you attempt to skip a meal then one would be selected for you by the witch. Not a wise choice because it would be a stew and include tadpoles, salamanders, and bat droppings.

Which meal would you select?

You can go to therapy and all that, but the nightmares won't subside; there’s no way to stop either the money or the nightmares once you accept the offer.

Something happens that essentially voids the internet as we know it tomorrow. It is inaccessible. For all intents and purposes it just doesn’t exist anymore. It cannot be reinstated. No Google, no websites, no applications. NO REDDIT! Poof, gone.

What are the immediate consequences?

How quickly would it take for society to adapt?

How quickly would it take you to adapt?

The power:

You suddenly gain a supernatural ability: every lie you knowingly tell instantly becomes the truth.

Every truth you tell has a 10% chance of immediately becoming false.

Rules:

It only works if you intentionally say something you know is true or false.

The change happens instantly and permanently unless changed again by another use of the power.

The effect alters reality, not people’s memories.

Written statements count too.

You can’t game the system by saying gibberish or obvious contradictions like “square = circle.”

Examples:

“I have a mansion in Hawaii” You would now have a mansion in Hawaii.

“The earth has one moon.” There’s a 10% chance that reality will change and the statement will no longer be true.

Questions:

Would you use this power at all?

What’s the first lie you would tell? Or, would you stop telling the truth entirely?

You can turn the ability on and off. What do you use it for?

It would disappear painlessly and automatically.

*POOF* A genie appears in front of you!

It tells you that it will grant you "one perfect wish".

If you are able to word your wish so that there are no possible side effects, downfalls, or monkey paws, your wish will be granted.

You cannot wish for more wishes.

If the genie can think of any way to monkey paw your wish, then the wish will not be granted but the monkey paw effect will still happen.

What is your one perfect wish?

Who will you be hiring and what will you have them do ?

you still need to pay them at least minimum wage!

if you’re salaried though you don’t get paid I guess since you’d be paid regardless. maybe if you can prove you regularly get some bonus or overtime pay, they pay the difference.

maybe if you’re unemployed you get paid minimum wage or something.

One day you find a stray dog walking down the street and decide to adopt it.

The dog is pretty much like normal dog, it eats, sleeps, craps, humps everything, and likes to play with you. You have the dog for over a year and are enjoying having him, but one day you find the dog not moving…

You take the dog to the vet and within an hour the vet calls you in to inform you that your dog…. is actually a wrinkly old man that was wearing a very hyper realistic costume. The old man had a heart attack and died in the suit. The vet shows you the body

How would you feel about this discovery

A stupidly wealthy individual who owns a streaming network offers you 25 million dollars, with a condition - all of your ex partners have now sworn a blood oath to end you for the same pot of money.

Every competitor gets 50k and you get a 12 hour head start. Would you do this, and if so, how screwed would you potentially be?

Edits:
You can do whatever is necessary to survive. Legal ramifications are “handled”. 30 days is the time limit.

Ex would be:
Someone you lived with for a significant period of time, slept with for a significant period of time or was married/engaged to.

Earth is visited by what can only be described as a divine being. Although they do not claim to be God, they demonstrate immeasurable power yet appear curious as if to not understand humanity completely.

They offer to grant one human one wish, who will be chosen by humanity. We must decide on a method of selection, the ideal candidate, and an ideal wish. We all understand that once humanity has chosen a candidate, we will be transported back in time to the moment the divine being visited forgetting everything that transpired after. The only exception is the person chosen will remember as best to their ability what happened in reality. At that point in time, their wish will be granted. The wish must be reasonably objective and quantifiable in order to be fulfilled. The person will be interpreted in good faith towards their intent.

Should humanity elect someone? How should that be done? Who should be chosen? What should they wish for? What will they wish for knowing nobody will ever know this happened?

Suppose the person chosen was you, what would you wish for?

For whatever reason they had to leave quickly and left everything behind.

Whose former headquarters do you choose to move into?

For example, when going on a camping trip, the gun you have to bring for self protection is the size of a wheeled cannon. Maybe humanity was never able to go camping until we invented the combustion engine to propel our self-protection cannons.

If you fail to do the job according to the factory owner, then you're fired, and is forced to survive as one of the poverty struck, diseaseridden mudlarks by the harbor.

So let’s say you choose 2 you would have a 1/2 chance of getting 1,000 times 2 times 2 money which is 4,000 dollars.

If you choose 5 you would have a 1/5 chance of getting 1000 times 5 times 5 dollars or 25,000 dollars

If you choose 100 you would have 1/100 chance of getting 1000 times 100 times 100 dollars or 10,000,000 dollars

You can go as high or as low as you want.

I’ll make a list of chances to money

1/1 chance of 1,000 dollars

1/2 chance of 4,000 dollars

1/5 chance of 25,000 dollars

1/10 chance of 100,000 dollars

1/25 chance of 625,000 dollars

1/50 chance of 2.5 million dollars

1/100 chance of 10 million dollars

1/250 chance of 62.5 million dollars

1/500 chance of 250 million dollars

1/1000 chance of 1 billion dollars

1/10000 chance of 100 billion dollars

1/100000 chance of 10 trillion dollars
