    Owing to the open-ended wording of your wish, since there are no ants inside your body, all ants in a 50-radius have instantaneously taken residence within every available cavity of your body. You find yourself amazed by just how many ants that actually is in the few seconds you have before your body bursts and you die in horrific but brief agony.

    Granted. The mass of 1 million ants teleported to the exact same spot has created a singularity that has destroy the universe.

    Granted. The conservation of entropy theorem that is the backbone of teportation means that upon teleport, the difference in entropy between origin and destination measured in mass-energy-entropy would have to be “antimatter ants” for each equivalent unit of mass-energy-entropy as you specified only a destination, that means that you probably only 10x’d the net quantity of ants whenever this teleportation is used.

    Lol, I wanted a power like that affecting all insects for years. I hate insects.

    Okay, all the ants in a 50 ft radius appear 60 ft above your head and start falling.

    I’d be careful with this one. Like the others have said the ants would for sure appear 60ft above your head. Instead of raining down on you though, they would teleport back once they fall 10 feet. They would keep falling 10 feet over and over again, gaining speed each time, until they eventually reach the speed of light and travel through time to all bite you at once right before you buy that damned monkeys paw in the first place…

    This will create a paradox because the ants couldn’t have traveled through time in the first place if you don’t buy the monkey’s paw though, and this paradox will create a singularity in space time which will slowly consume the entire universe

    All because you think bugs are icky
