I wish that the Monkey's Paw had never existed, and therefore that nobody has ever wished on it. (self.monkeyspaw)

Granted, monkeys never evolved. One monkeys hand was never severed and cursed. A different species took its place in its ecological niche. A large lizard gets its appendage cut off and cursed.

You come into possession of a cursed lizard claw that grants you 4 wishes.
