Want to make a wish? Just ask the Monkey’s Paw! No strings attached.*

Just create a post that starts with “I wish ___”. Other users will then grant you the wish, and probably not how you intended.

Granted, but you have to watch an ad every time you open an app.

We're almost there already, MS serves ads on the Windows lock screen and sometimes they sneakily install bloatware with updates, like Candy Crush and Titok. Having to watch ads before opening apps doesn't feel too far off.
