But genies aren't real, right? I mean yes [url=http://taylorlegalnc.com/]http://taylorlegalnc.com/[/url] made some references to the genies but it wasn't literal. So there can't possibly be a lawyers vs genies.

Do you have an agreement or at least some documents that determine the rights and obligations and each of the partners? It is very dangerous to start work when this is not documented in any way. I advise you to check the site [url=https://make-forms.com/joint-venture-agreement-template]https://make-forms.com/joint-venture-agreement-template[/url]. If I need information about certain documents, their preparation or templates, I'm looking for it there.

I have a startup that I started with my friends some time ago. Now we have disagreements, and I have no idea how to solve them. Can you advise a good lawyer?

xkcd has terrible comics too. I would wager that every comic that has produced a substantial amount of material has some absolute crap. I've yet to find anyone who is perfect at their job, I don't know why people keep expecting entertainers to be.

I don't see why it's surprising; xkcd is not on an every-day schedule and so he can actually think of good ideas instead of having to pump something out every day.
Hell, even at that rate it's not great;
Cyanide and Happiness has plenty terrible comics and those guys alternate so they do like 1 every 3 days-ish

So that teapot in outer space actually has a genie inside. Now it all makes sense!

If I could have a fictional job, I would like to be a wish consultant.

Eventually we'll make them bow to our will.

Look, this isn't that complicated.

Bertrand Russell has you covered.

Never mind lawyers, the genies should have consulted a [i]mathematician[/i]-- all you need is a type system. SImply only accept wishes phrased within a constrained grammar which prevents self-referential statements by requiring for example only 2-sets can contain 1-sets. Then specify the genie will grant any first-order wish.

There, was that so hard?
