yeah but the range of leg pairs for humans is (comparatively) much more tame. this would be like if humans had 1-12.3 leg pairs. and crazier still, humans were named something like “6 legged beings”
Despite the name, no centipede has exactly 100 pairs of legs; number of legs ranges from 15 pairs to 191 pairs, always an odd number. (wikipedia)

most wikipedia thing ever to start the joke page with a link to the article defining “humor”.
my interpretation of it is: when you ask a genie for something they’ll give it to you, but with a nasty twist. e.g., if you ask for a lot of money they’ll say okay, then give you the money, and then tell you it’s all marked notes from a recent bank robbery or something.
but since this element is so stupid, there’s no twist necessary. the element itself is the nasty surprise.

Similar to megathreads, free-form ads are meant to help readers get the information they need quickly.
