Your question for today: If you found a genie in a bottle and were granted 3 wishes, what would they be and why? I would wish to go back in time to before I got married to tell myself (and my W) to figure out sex early rather than wait until the unhappiness is unbearable. I would tell "us" to come to an agreement on what a sex life should look before committing to marriage or else don't get married. I would save the other 2 wishes until after I see how the first one pans out. Maybe perfect health for W and I as a follow-up wish. After that, I'm torn between obscene financial wishes and a wish for some undecided, comic book style super power.😁

To be invisible at will, to be able to stop time and my hair back!

Your question for today: If you found a genie in a bottle and were granted 3 wishes, what would they be and why? 1- ex to find happiness.. because I truly want him to be happy and also he's stressing out everyone who cares about him including me 2-better jobs for my kids..is that one or 2? My daughter needs more financial stability so she can enjoy life and my son has a newborn son and needs to be able to provide better 3- if 2 didn't count as 2 and 3 ..I would wish for a bigger cushion in my savings account. Man those were some boring answers to a fun question.. guess everyone can guess I lie awake worrying about people .. Ugh.

Your question for today: If you found a genie in a bottle and were granted 3 wishes, what would they be and why? Thinking selfishly... health, and longevity. And wisdom, to make the most of them. With those tools, one can do a lot: live well, create wealth, help others, etc. But, duh - my first wish would be for more than 3 wishes! ;-) On a lighter note... Three guys, stranded on a desert island, find a magic lantern containing a genie, who grants them each one wish. The first guy wishes he was off the island and back home. The second guy wishes the same. Then the third guy says "I miss my friends. I wish they were back here."

DC, your joke made me laugh out loud, literally. Thank goodness no one was around. I needed that laugh today. You’re the best.

Your question for today: If you found a genie in a bottle and were granted 3 wishes, what would they be and why? Good one, Sadkat .... something else to make us think. :*) 1. Not crazy money, but enough to not have to balance my checkbook before paying bills; 2. A good, happy and successful life for my kids; and 3. To once and for all be at peace with my life, including my marriage.

The best trick I heard was Isaac Asimov's: to wish the genii falls madly and unselfishly in love with you. Then you command a torrent of wishes.

I would take whynotm3 only #1 might be not crazy money but enough to build a house and I could retire when I want to. I'm only 52 so I'm not ready to retire and enjoy my work but if that shifts then it would be comfortable to say see ya.

Your question for today: What’s getting worse and worse as you get older? What’s getting better and better as you get older?

Q: What’s getting worse and worse as you get older? What’s getting better and better as you get older?
My joints!! Although they are better lately because I've been going to physio so I can walk without pain again.
What's getting better? My ability to see what's worth fussing about and what to just let roll off me. Makes life much sweeter.

Agreed- joints getting worse, ability to recover from exercise getting worse.
My perspective is getting better. I am much better about knowing what is important and what is not.

My hearing is getting worse. My hips are arthritic. My ability to tolerate idiots is diminishing. My alcohol tolerance is vanishing and I have to stop eating fatty foods. But I have time enough to stop and smell the flowers along the way.
