Not Taking Over the World
Racktip_Oddling17y00

I have been granted almighty power, constrained only by the most fundamental laws of reality (which may, or may not, correspond with what we currently think about such things).

What do I do? Whatever it is that you want me to do. (No sweat off my almighty brow.)

You want me to kill thy neighbour? Look, he's dead. The neighbour doesn't even notice he's been killed ... I've got almighty power, and have granted his wish too, which is to live forever. He asked the same about you, but you didn't notice either.

In a universe where I have "almighty" power, I've already banished all contradictions, filled all wishes, made everyone happy or sad (according to their desires), and am now sipping Laphroaig, thinking, "Gosh, that was easy.".
