For any random reason, you can change ONE thing on the entire universe.
What you change will be infinite and can never be changed again.
There is no limitation to the change you can make. Opo a pizza or destroy the universe are both possible.
What would you do?
>>768757388
Make an infinite source of energy to eliminate entropy.
To know what its like to feel happiness.
The order of the food chain.
>>768757844
this
>>768757881
a chain is a bad analogy. it should be more... a food web.
The web of which the food is carnivourised denoted by multiple factors
>>768757388
Probably remove islam, it's a religion for pedophiles
>>768757388
changing the hydrogen atom, just for fun's sake.
>>768757388
I would like to take a solid poop.
>>768757388
Standard answer for all these wish things. Change it so I can change as much as I want. Essentially power that would be the envy of God.
>>768757994

MS Access never existed
>>768757388
Make loli threads reportable
>>768758104
this isn't necessarily a wish scenario....
>>768758104
That's kinda stuid.
Why not wish to change yourself so your will is eternal and all-powerful? You don't depend on anything for wishes then.
>>768758190
but you can report them now. they just won't do anything
>>768758233
Exactly, by the way i got reporting rights revoked because i reported too many of them
>>768758280
LOL why are you reporting loli threads to begin with? they're not hurting anybody.

>infinite source of energy to eliminate entropy.
You'd fundamentally change the nature of the universe and would probably wipe out all life as we know it, thanks.
>>768757881
>The order of the food chain.
Wait, so instead of eating beef, chicken and pork only to become worm food in the end, you'd rather eat worms, then be eaten by cows, chickens and pigs after your death?
>>768757994
>remove islam, it's a religion for pedophiles
Of all the reasons to remove Islam, you picked that one? Not the intolerance, not the stoning rape victims to death, not the willful ignorance, not the part where they kill anybody who doesn't worship the right god in just the right fashion, not for outlawing alcohol, not for the burka, not for punishing apostasy with death, not for sharia or jihad?
Jesus fucking Christ, get yer shit together.
>>768758032
>changing the hydrogen atom, just for fun's sake.
...and we're back to wiping out life as we know it.
Fuck's sake Anons...
Here's what you all should have picked:
Everything is just the same, but instead of every man on Earth chasing the pussy while women just pick and choose, let the women chase the disk while the men pick and choose.
I would have been such a man-slut in high school.
I would change the speed of light to half of what ut is now. And end illiteracy by teaching others to read.
>>768758502
>let the women chase the disk
so your ideal woman is a dog? got it
>>768758190
>Make loli threads reportable
>I want to come to the forum where anything legal goes...
>but my first thought is to bitch about anything I don't like
Go try redit, it's probably more your style, you can downvote anything you don't like.
that i could do anything including breaking the laws of physics. ez become richest person etc and teleport n shit.
I would give everybody their psychic powers back
Suffering is abolished forever. No living creature ever suffers again in any way.
>>768758616
OP sez you can only pick one.
>>768758768
inversely, this would cause no living creature to ever feel joy again, as well.
I would finish what hitler started
>>768758808
Lol, why? I mean that would be worth it to abolish suffering forever, but suffering isn't a prerequisite for pleasure.
>>768758785
I'm not OP, but I would let it slide, because only one thing is actually being changed... he physically still has to teach people to read in the second part.
but it would take twice the amount of time as normal because the speed of light has been halved.
>>768757388
more aliens,
the space kind.
Not mexicans.
>>768758841
You cannot have a positive without a negative
>>768758884
Oooh can they be sexy big titty aliens?
>>768758841
you can't have light without dark. if there is nothing to compare it to, what is happiness? how can you be happy if you've never felt what it is not be happy? that would just be normal. you would have to constantly increase serotonin and dopamine levels in everyone's brains in order to maintain this idea of "happiness", which would be unsustainable.
>>768758885
Source/proof?
>>768758819
>I would finish what hitler started
Running a perfectly good country into the ground?
I'm pretty sure he finished that job,
>>768758988
logic....? work it out for yourself. it's not something we can show you a mathematical formula to prove.
>>768758987
Happiness is just a certain state of the brain. Certain chemicals are present, certain neurons are firing. It's a pattern. There is no need for a pain pattern to happen for a pleasure one to happen.
>>768759027
You can feel suffering without pleasure, why not the opposite?
>>768758841
> but suffering isn't a prerequisite for pleasure.
Pleasure involves appreciating what you have.
Without a downside, everybody would be a pouty, spoiled brat.
>>768757388
Infinite wishes
>>768758884
>more aliens,
>the space kind.
>Not mexicans.
What if they'r worse than the Mexicans?
At least Mexico makes tequila, guac, and underage prostitutes.
>>768758502
Any of these could be revised to "but the universe and life as we know it isnt destroyed"
>>768757809
seriously.
what an asshole thing to do
>>768759178
>Any of these could be revised to "but the universe and life as we know it isnt destroyed"
Nope, I'm pretty sure "remove the second law of thermodynamics" and "but leave the universe otherwise unchanged" are fundamentally incompatible.
>>768757388
I would make the atmosohere on earth heavier. So heavy that americans will have to get around in motorized scooters
>>768759085
The propaganda is working.
Do you know how many rich kids I know who haven't even had a major illness let alone traumatic life event?
Most are actually quite grateful. Most have life skills inherited by their parents which will transfer to their own children.
Most are acutely aware of how sheltered they are with almost no negative comparison and they're still leading a happy, expansive life.
But keep telling yourself "acting like a brat" isnt the same as needing pain to excuse your pleasure.
I bet you sound like your single mom.
>>768759064
>You can feel suffering without pleasure, why not the opposite?
we do know what pleasure is, and it's not suffering. it may not be inherent, but compared to suffering, most things are pleasurable. suffering can typically get worse. if you want to remove suffering, things can't get worse. so they're either the same or better. in order for them to be better, they would have constantly be getting better. if they were the same there would be no happiness or sadness.
imagine you're right. we have happiness, but no sadness... what happens when someone becomes... slightly less happy? or is that even a possibility? we would have to constantly be getting happier and happier to maintain a level of "happiness" that does not degrade into suffering. neutral at this point would be considered suffering. the happier you get, the easier it is to suffer. what then? any reduction in happiness would then be suffering. you cannot have one without the other, in both cases.

make my waifu real
or make the universe stop expanding
i don't know which, they both seem good
>>768759305
still, the nature of the question is omnipotence.
whatever you say, goes.
I would simply create my own planet wherein i am all powerful. like Ego the living planet.
then let the rest of the universe continue fucking itself
>>768758502
maybe i want to wipe out life. it'd be funny as we would explode, disintegrate or whatevs would happen. would not experience the end, but i would be proud wiping out that which can infect.
>>768758883
Op here.
Technically, it's true. If he wants to waste his tim to teach everyone to read, then it's his choice, but the thread's change is the speed of light.
>>768759093
OP here.
That ain't a wish, that's a change on the universe.
>>768759572
>>768759620
I should have fused these 2 messages.
>>768759366
who would be happier living in that household, someone who has lived there their entire life, or someone who has been starving in the streets their entire life? and imagine it reversed. who would be more resilient starving on the streets?
I'm not saying you're wrong or they're not happy, but MOST people don't know what they got until it's gone.
>>768759672
Also untrue. You wanna live a life of gratitude?
Well, people who can do that cut you out the moment they hear BS like what you said.
If you think thats true, its because you were raised by & associate with people who dont practise gratitude.
You dont need trauma to change your opinion. It doesnt gurantee gratitude at all.
Thats why you get poor people saying moneys the root of evil.
To answer your question, no. Someone whos been raised in poverty and suffering will have much less skills & vision to sustain a rich, able lifestyle so your theory is shit.
Everything is practise and repetition. You wanna know how to create and appreciate wealth? You need to experience it first.
>>768759888
so the kid with the rich upbringing is going to be more resilient living homeless on the streets than the kid that has been doing it for years. got it.
>>768759672
Its also why the first 2 generations of any family who escape poverty are the most likely to come back to it.
>>768759530
>still, the nature of the question is omnipotence.
>whatever you say, goes.
Omnippitance is a fictional, self-defeating fiction.
You can't "wish" for something that can't exist.
"I wish for the power to lift any rock and also to make a rock I can't lift."
Id make a burrito so hot that not even god could eat
>>768759962
Nice attempt at cherrypicking.
The rich kid is less likely to end up on the street in any case because he knows better than a poor one how wealth works and how to transcend social barriers based on behavior.
Sorry dude. You cant wish your trauma into power.
Youre not Sarah Kerrigan.
>>768759981
>escape poverty
Old money doesn't last long. children of rich parents are less likely to be as successful as their parents, and children of those children are likely to spend what's left because they didn't work for any of it.
>>768760077
>Nice attempt at cherrypicking.
but that was the entire premise of my previous post. it was the hypothetical I laid out that you completely ignored. and now you're spouting some bullshit about rich kids being less likely to ever end up poor, because.. the kid is the one making sure the family isn't poor here, of course.
>>768757388
>y those have $0!!?
>>768759962
PS. Viewpoints like this are the exact reason were selectively rewarding people for acting with violence and anger based on "their sad oppressed upbringing."
Its human nature to believe weakness generates strength via understanding but if that were true, poverty would have stopped being a thing ages ago.
Trauma generates more trauma until fixed. At no point will that change.
People who escape poverty learned to make stable money--they didnt transform being poor into a skill.
>>768760183
Old money doesnt last long?
Longer than no money, dumbass. I never said it was forever.
Sorry you grew up poor dude. You shouldnt have let it get to your head.
>>768758190
Why not just make nobody sexually attracted to kids?
no niggers
>>768759142
Yeah but dey tuk our joooobs

>The rich kid is less likely to end up on the street in any case because he knows better than a poor one how wealth works
Oh lord, no.
That's like saying "I know more about physics than you because I'm an electrician".
>>768761303
>Yeah but dey tuk our joooobs
And what if E.T. will pick green beans and hang drywall even cheaper than the wetbacks?
I'd make it impossible for colored people to breed a boy, think about it, almost all the hate in this world would be eliminated. No more hostile rapefugee niggers and sandniggers,
The world would be so fucking wonderful
