Now the original Monkey’s Paw story features social media posts instead of an actual monkey’s paw, making the name confusing and misleading.
The Monkey's Paw
Want to make a wish? Just ask the Monkey's Paw! No strings attached*.
(*) Satisfaction not guaranteed. Wish may backfire unexpectedly.
Just create a post that starts with "I wish ___" and wait for other users to write how your wish didn't turn out how you expected.
If you're feeling inspired, you may even use the wish as a sort of writing prompt.
Example:
Title: I wish for more wishes.
Answer: Granted. A piece of paper the size of a business card appears in your hand with 4 dotted lines for you to fill out your wishes and a little checkbox in front of each. Now to find someone who will grant those...
People reading the post now understand how it works, but can't see any of the responses.
Can they still write them?
Nope. Tell me if I'm doing this wrong, btw. I'm vague on the rules.
You're doing it right! And thanks, I have added some details in the description to hopefully clarify.
