In true genie fashion, the only change in their life is that now, a single occasion where a racist person decided not to hold a door open for them, changes so that they do.

Genies are all about malicious compliance.

I need to watch the wishmaster series. Of all the stuff with the concept of evil genies that twist the meaning of wishes into anything BUT the intention of the wisher, it would be that. Or so I heard.
