Three friends – a brunette, a redhead, and a blonde – found themselves on a deserted island after their cruise ship sank. After days of despair, they stumbled upon a magic lamp buried in the sand. Excitedly, they rubbed the lamp, and out popped a genie.
The genie explained, “You each get one wish, and I’ll grant it.”
The brunette, being practical, wished to be back home with her family. Poof! She disappeared.
The redhead, feeling a bit adventurous, wished to be on a tropical island with endless resources. Poof! She vanished too.
Now, the blonde was alone with the genie. The genie asked, “You’re the last one. What’s your wish?”
The blonde thought long and hard, then exclaimed, “I’m lonely without my friends. I wish they were back here with me!” Poof! The other two reappeared.
Now, the island was getting crowded, and the blonde, realizing her mistake, turned to the genie and said, “I think I made a wrong wish. Can you send them back to where they were?”
The genie chuckled and replied, “Your wish is my command!” Poof! The brunette and the redhead were gone.
Moral of the story: Sometimes, it’s wise not to overthink, especially when making wishes with genies on deserted islands.
