Beat Me Half to Death

Written by

A guy finds an old lamp and gives it a rub. A genie pops out.

The genie says, “I will grant you three wishes, but there are rules. One wish has to be good for you, two have to be bad for you. And whatever you wish for, your ex-wife gets double.”

The guy thinks for a second and says, “Alright. For my first wish, I want a million-dollar mansion sitting on one hundred acres, with a safe inside that has ten million dollars in it.”

The genie snaps his fingers. “Done. And your ex-wife now has a two-million-dollar ranch on two hundred acres with a safe holding twenty million.”

The guy shakes his head but says, “Okay. For my second wish, I want you to give my ex-wife half of everything I have.”

The genie looks at him for a moment, then snaps again. “Done. Which means she now has to give you all of hers.”

The guy smiles. “Perfect.”

The genie says, “Alright, last wish. This one has to be bad for you.”

The guy takes a breath and says, “Fine. I want you to beat me half to death.”

The genie pauses, looks at him, then slowly smiles.
