ok but like isn't this a great outcome for the human? that dog has to go to school and pay taxes now. jokes on him
Is this why dogs always stare creepily when the lovemaking starts?
Reminds me of this comic which was also made in 2019 or 2020 i believe.
Saw a funny continuation where the dogs first wish is for them to swap bodies and his second wish is that the person couldn't talk.
Someone posted a version of that in the comments. A bit dark!
That sounds more like cat wishes to me.
why would a cat lower themselves to the life of a petty human?
Easier to get food that way.
If you are able to get food with less work than your cat then I'm either jealous of your life or worried about your cat.
How would the cat know how the food gets there? The human leaves, they come back with food. That would be a great "be careful what you wish for" wish.
no because now they have to actually work for it and do chores and stuff
Yeah, they'd find that out. Human in cat body: "No take-backs! Now scoop my poop!"
The tragic comedy is when the dog wishes the human can live forever.
I'm willing to bet the comic came out first.
I found a thread discussing this and the claim is that a tweet came first, but i wasn't able to open the imgur link provided. Either way, i definitely saw the comic and not the tweet
That's nice. I'd wish for the scientific knowledge to create sustainable fusion. That way I could be rich, famous, and save humanity.
"I wish I had my balls back"
"I wish for the humans balls to be removed"
BALL. I WISH FOR BALL.
This is where two balls comes in handy.
Granted. One of your testicles grows back.
I SAID BALL NOT TESTICLE. JUST BECAUSE I CAN TALK DOESN'T MEAN I UNDERSTAND IDIOMS.
If you understood genies, you would know that twisting your words is par for the course, if not the whole point (⌐■_■)
Why would a dog understand genies if they don't understand idioms?
Good question. They don't. Neither do people, hence the ironic consequences.
Testicle
Twisting your words
So the genie is technically committing linguistic torsion

Dog: I wish my human was never sad and will live forever.
I wish we could eat poop together
Just make sure you don't try this with your cat
Technically it can already talk using its own language.
To talk with human words requires a bump in intelligence which would end up in severe depression once it realises the dynamics of ifs existence.
As you didn’t wish for that intelligence you’re now stuck with a dog that barks with human vocal cords. Its first wish was made using body language for the genie to pet them. The second wish was to trow a stick.
Tell that to LLM bros 🙄
They know. They just don't want to admit it because of investors.
Lmao. I remember when they got mad because an atari beat up chat-gpt in chess. "Chat-GPT is not a playing-chess thing"
CHOW-DEH!
To talk with human words requires a bump in intelligence which would end up in severe depression once it realises the dynamics of ifs existence.
A bump up in intelligence that allows for speech, doesn't mean it inherently becomes aware of all the existential dread in the universe or becomes unhappy with its station.
See: children.
all the existential dread in the universe
See: children.
Man I had existential dread at like 3 or 4 when I started wondering what happens after death and what the meaning of this existence is if it's limited to one lifetime... I'm not even bullshitting.
Technically non-human animal communication isn't language.
Here's the real genie answer, complete with ironic consequences based on a literal interpretation.

"I wish for a litterbox with infinite cat poop."
- Dog
wish one: I want to be the best boy/girl
wish two: I want to overcome my fear of the demon cat
Dog: whatever it is you’re trying to say, I don’t understand you.
