For those who don’t know, a Monkey Paw Wish is when you get your wish granted, but in an unexpected usually negative way.

Example:

  1. I wish human caused global warming would stop.
  2. It does, but because WW3 leads to Nuclear Winter.

The question here though, is what wish would you be willing to take even though it’ll get monkey paw’d?

So basically you don’t care if the consequences, or would be willing to take the sacrifice for it.

Others can come up with the negative scenarios if they want and the original wisher can decide if it’s still worth it

    The situation is so bad over there it took me awhile to think of how this could be made bad.

    I’d go with:

    Granted, but groceries and water go up in price 1000% because a war breaks out and a bioweapon has been used on the nation’s food supply.
