The Monkey's Paw

The premise is simple.

A poster makes a (simple, somewhat open-ended) wish. The person replying obeys that wish that is to-the-letter, but not quite to the spirit of OP's request.

As an example, in the original short story, a father made a wish on the monkey's paw for 500 pounds. What he failed to realize was that these 500 pounds would be given to him as compensation from a company who their son worked for. Apparently, their son had gotten caught in the machinery and killed, shortly after the wish was made

Basically, r/TheMonkeysPaw or r/MalicousComplience as a forum game.

This seems a lot similar to Corrupted Wish Game, I may have to lock the thread sorry because we've been doing the same kind of thing on that thread.
