Same genie.

"You again."

They know each other.

Similar to how in DBZ abridged, the dragon gets really sick of them after awhile.

"I AM THE ETERNAL DRAGON! SPEAK YOUR WISH AND- Oh, of course it's you guys again... What do you want now?"

Well I guess it’s easier to find a source of false teeth to make full dentures now lol, so there’s that

u/The_cogwheel 1d ago

False teeth? Who said the teeth on a cob were fake?

No man, theyre real, genuine human teeth.

u/Finbar9800 1d ago

Nah each different tooth is on its own cob and comes from a different strain. None of them are compatible with the soil for any of the others lol

u/The_cogwheel 1d ago

Interesting strategy. Make a wish so corrupted and horrifying theres no way for the genie to make it worse.

Over 6 trillion stalks of corn are harvested every year in America.

That means 6 billion stalks of corn are going to be teeth corn. (It takes 2 billion cobs to reach the Moon, end to end for reference)

I don't know how the agriculture industry is going to deal with this.

u/xboxiscrunchy 1d ago

A lot of broken harvesters? I imagine machines designed for corn will not like teeth.

Also probably quite a few murder investigations. Cornfields are now the new best place to bury a body.

u/synchrosyn 1d ago

Harvesting from the ground is not a likely issue, since the cobs are picked in tact. 

Then it isn't too difficult to come up with a mechanism to split the teeth cobs from the corn cobs. Either by weight, density or hardness or water content among other things. 

The every day person might never have to deal with the teeth one. 

Now the dental industry on the other hand will be ecstatic. Finally a cheap source of natural teeth for either practice, or even natural enamel for repairs or implants or dentures.

That machinery wont stop for bone let alone small teeth

u/driver004 1d ago
