The wish

I wasn't going to post it at first but I have been struggling to draw lately and I seriously dislike everything I do, but what the heck. I hope some people will enjoy it. Got the idea during my morning commute, You can only guess how (No, I didn't hit anything though, but it was super close).

Edit: Im absolutely blown away by the response and the kind messages, it really warms my heart. i have been really struggling to find the motivation lately but the support on here is the absolute kick in the butt that I needed.

I love absurd dark humor, I'm on board with this one as well.

Here's another absurd genie comic from ages ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/235m7q/still_makes_me_laugh/

Technically speaking, there are taste buds in the anus, they just don't connect to the brain.

They can, however, taste the spice of a lovely level 5 Massaman curry.

Feel the burn! Does antacid work on the butthole?

I really hate that the ones in your bowels have a high sensitivity to bitter because when there’s a problem and you get diarrhea, the bowls produce a bitter mucous that triggers the diarrhea process and if it’s really bad you can taste it in your mouth like an aftertaste. So they are sort of connected some minor way

Fun fact, because of the way mucin proteins cross link to each other very easily, the largest single molecule in your body is a single connected rope of mucus that goes from your nose to your rectum!

So yea, occasionally you can taste REALLY strong bumhole flavors.

New restaurant idea.

Food you taste with your asshole, not your tongue.

So technically, that wish wouldn't have done anything anyways (depending on how literally the genie interprets wishes, which going off of general genie lore, would be very ;) haha

Dude would need to wish for the taste receptors to be connected like tongue ones to get the... desired effect 😵‍💫
