nothing nearly as heady, mate. Just pointing out the obvious trope about wish spells backfiring because unambiguous wording is absurdly difficult. It's all throughout media -- so your argument must be something that people should be able to easily intuit.

I'm agreeing with you.

Brings to mind the (quite funny) movie 'Bedazzled'.

However Brendan Fraser's character tries to phrase his wishes, the devil finds a way to mess him up.
