        Wow. You're good at this.

        I'm going to use my wish to talk you into hiring me as your personal driver for like a year, so I can learn your wisdom.

        That's so well played.

            Jokes on you, I'd probably enjoy that so I wouldn't argue. Especially if I'm crazy rich, what else would I have to do?

              Dumbass.

              I am entitled to infinite wishes.

              Shit, I argued with you.

                  IF by winning you mean that everyone listening agrees with me, then I'll take on anyone on Fox News.

                      It's a monkey paw of an outcome.

                      You win the argument; but it does not change his mind on the subject. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

                        Yeah, this really depends on what you meant by winning here. Are we actually changing the other person's mind or do they admit we are right, but still believe otherwise? Are people who witness the argument included? Do people continue to agree indefinitely? Does it change reality to match?

                          Definitively? Like everyone agrees I won the argument and it causes anyone who witnessed it to rethink their stance on the topic and actually fucking change the way they think and behave? An occurrence so rare I'd might as well play the lottery?

                          If that were true... I guess I'd argue Donald Trump about addressing and curbing Climate Change...and second choice would be arguing Elon Musk on the merits of developing actual empathy.

                          Genie wishes...pipe dreams in a lamp, lol. Anyways, thanks for inducing a small indulgence in some fantasy.

                            I think you would have to argue with quite a few people to even get access to trump.

                                      The OP's what if scenario is already well outside the realm of potential reality, might as well go hard into the imagination space.
