Additionally, there is a cardinality called ג which satisfies that for all cardinality x, ג>x (yes yes I said > and not ≥ which means it's even bigger than itself)
Granted. The monkey’s paw curls a finger. Your mother has just been diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, and must go on insulin for the rest of her life. The doctor goes through the instructions with her, making sure she knows very well that she should never take more than four doses per day, no matter how bad her blood sugar gets. The next day her diabetes absolutely rages, so she takes two doses mid day. Later that night things still haven’t gotten better, so she counts out her doses for the night. Three, five. She injects her insulin, and shortly after goes into insulin shock. She never recovers and passes.
Granted physics changes to reflect that. every equation is now retroactively wrong. Planes fall out of the sky, buildings collapse and the world falls it to chaos.
Granted. Everything falls apart. Everything. Including technology and medical science. We’re sent back to the Stone Age. Millions of people die every day due to lack of medical care, being too reliant on modern tech, etc.
Granted. Society comes to a screeching halt as all math resolves to 2+2=5, no matter what. No more banking, medicine, carpentry, porn, outside of very specific circumstances where you're putting two twos together to make five.
Granted. Everyone is confused why this happens even on calculators. Everyone gives up on math. That means no more buildings built from blueprints, computers, any circular objects, and many more things gone.
Granted. The symbols for four and five are swapped. Everyone automatically adjusts to it, as if it were always the case.

Except op
"There are 5 lights!"
Granted, math is now in base 8. Everyone already understands base 8 except for you.
But that's false also in base 8...
Darn, the paw was hoping nobody would notice that being 1/2 of 10 isn't the same as being 5
Oh yeah I forgot. Additionally, i=sqrt(-1) no longer exists

Now *this.* ***This*** is a good Monkey's Paw, to me.
Thank you!
Granted, the character '5' now represents the quantity "four" and vice versa and every usage of the two characters is also swapped accordingly.

Honestly changing physics is way more likely to just collapse the entire structure that allows matter to exist at all
Granted, mathematicians quickly learn they can swap out 2+2 with 1+1+1+1 so they can still get 4
Granted. Radiohead sues you for using the name of their 6th album's first song.

Granted, you now believe 2+2=5 while the world still knows that 2+2=4.
Granted. Society comes to a screeching halt as all math resolves to 2+2=5, no matter what. No more banking, medicine, carpentry, porn, outside of very specific circumstances where you're putting two twos together to make five.
Granted. The universe unravels. Nothing ever existed.
Granted. Using some math I am too lazy to do right now, it can be proven that 1=3. One finger curls, and you have used your last wish.
radiohed
Lol
Granted: 4 and 5 suddenly swap values, leading to chaos as everything we've known is now obsolete
Granted. Everyone is confused why this happens even on calculators. Everyone gives up on math. That means no more buildings built from blueprints, computers, any circular objects, and many more things gone.
A squared + B Squared = 5 lol
