What if: You die in 24 hours with a twist

Mondor

The Freak
Banned
BROB has decided to kill you in 24 hours, but he grants you one last wish (It won't let you stop it from killing you).


What I'd do? I'd do what the 10th Doctor did during the End of Time:








Basically, I'd go throughout time and space helping or visiting friends and acquaintances, some of the people I treated like shite and just help them before they met me.


Edit: If your last actions are noble enough, BROB will not only let you continue your life but reward you with whatever you want. For the sake of the thread, you don't know this until the end.
 
I'd probably wish for a die hard like situation where all my loved ones just so happen to end up at some fancy party together when terrorists take the whole building hostage, I pull a John Mcclain and save the day, but unlike John I die in the end.
 
I wish for a almost clone of myself with all of the relevant memories... without the Y chromosome. Yes, basically a genderbent clone of myself (so basically different enough so I won't get accused of trying to rules lawyer my way out of this), at the moment I die, all relevant legal documentations will be changed to accommodate my clone.

Weird enough for y'all?
 
Complete plans for an easy to build with cheap modern components inertialess gravity drive. I got a guy or two I trust in the government who'll be able to make a correct use for it and maybe even give my name some modicum of immortality.
 
Something like a modernized version of Midas' Touch (lottery numbers I pick wins, people get inspiration when I touch 'em, etc) and the ability to teleport. Go see my friends and family, use my touch to gift them one last gift and teleport myself to some place with a beautiful view to wait for my end.

The Right Man in the Right Place at the Right Time Makes All the Difference in the World.

I do not consider myself the Right Man. Nor do I think I should mess with the free will of other human beings by messing with the past at the Right Time. Nor do I know exactly what are the Right Places.

So? I don't wish for any fame or acts that would make me famous like me time traveling around and solving issues. Instead? I would just slightly alter the odds and probability of the character of the cosmos, of events in the now and near future in favor of Humanity surviving this and future eons and not being killed off by the Great Filter, progressing both technologically and socially towards the closest one can get to an utopia and general true happiness and the universe not ending in a Big Rip of tearing Space-Time but allowing Humanities descendants living in Black Hole Powered Dyson citadels, to leave the Universe, as it cools down for a Big Freeze 10^20 years in the future, for other Universes in the Multiverse.

No one will ever learn I did this. I will find that good. Just the knowledge in my head that Humans or their Post-Human descendants will exist at the end of time and beyond is the greatest "HUMANS! FUCK YOU!" one can give to the uncaring universe.

There is a magnificent manga titled Ikigami I recommend people fascinated with this idea check out. It's this exact scenario, sans the wish. People are just notified that they were randomly destined to die and have 24 hours to live. The whole society is shaped around this.
Image result for ikigami the ultimate limit
Emotionally, one of the most moving mangas I've ever read.



OK, that out of the way, I solve poverty before I die.
 
I request my physical and mental speed be sped up by a factor of 1 billion without any negative side effects, what constitutes negative will be decided by me. This will allow me to live for what i will perceive as over 2.7 million years. That should be enough time for me to get tired of life.

You then burn up due to friction
 
An evil genie principle, whatever you wish for will be inevitably twisted and make things worse.
Well then wish for something bad and see how they can twist that!

pretends to be a racist, wishing for all the Jews to be gone from Earth

Wish being granted in the form of all Jews being taken to a paradise far away from Earth, while the gap in economy they left behind are not replaced.

Theoretically, you can wish for a genie / BROB not twisting any wishes and always following the spirit of the wishes while wishes should benefit large amount of people etc. i.e. don't wish for things to happen, but for genie to follow different rules.

It does nothing that mess with the genie, and it could be theoretically argued you did what benefit the larger amount of people as you preventing the loose genie to cause even more havoc
 
I would wish people killed by direct act of BROB to be reincarnated as in Real Life as Slimes with powers like those of Rimuru Tempest, then I'd become a post-mortem pornstar.
 
Simple, guaranteed Isekai with all of BROB's power in the next life. Then wait on the road for BROB/Truck-kun to arrive 80 mph
 
Delete my history to save my family the horror of looking through it. I should get 5 wishes for that alone and a chance to reincarnate to another world with anything I want lol.



Jokes aside... Well I wouldn't really care if die. (Im gonna die someday so if i die then i die. Nothing i can do about that.) Especially if I could help this generation and my family with one wish. I would wish for the worlds resources,nature, to not be declining wherever my family lives and that anytime one of them gets hurt from external means (attacked or something of the like) it would decline. Call me selfish but my family comes first and foremost in everything. If my family dies out then I have no reason to help.


I wish for humanitys ascesion to the highest form of godhood.
That would be a terrible wish. Imagine having to deal with being a pantheon and we all literally kill ourselves with all the murderhobos that will spring up because of this
