Aaargh! You casted a 3.5 spell on a AD&D 2nd ed. player... Some gods are now really angered :P
However, I can feel the heroic bravery in me! I feel now bold enough to fight a beholder armed only with a teaspoon, and to cast Gender Switch on the next user!

I manage to avoid the spell; however, my non-binary friend ends up getting hit by the spell by accident. As a result, their gender switches to the opposite gender.
There is only one problem: It is not clear what "opposite gender" is in this case. As a result, some undefined behavior occurs. In this case, said non-binary friend gains access to a nuclear weapon. (Will they use it, or instead find a way to dismantle it?)
I cast Nahal's Reckless Dweomer on the next user, and I specify that I am trying to produce the effect of Nahal's Reckless Dweomer. (There, I specified a specific effect.)

Now now. I know the animation for W-Summon + Quadra Magic + Bahamut Zero is long, but it's not THIS long. *pout*

Ah - I am now the admiral of a fleet, journeying to find the edge of this flat Earth of ours.
While alone in my quarters with much time to myself (Where is that damned edge? I swear, we've gone through the Panama Canal six times now!), I create and cast the spell Flawed Logic.

I cast Portable Door on the next target.

Knowledge fills my mind. Clearing up ambiguity at the current thing on my mind.
"That man I gave money to for gas was just taking advantage of me! CURSES!"
The clarity fades and I'm left even more confused than before.
I cast Broken Mirror.

Ah, piffle. That means all mirror magic and reflective magic is broken. Gazing, scrying, and such are likely to be scrambled as well.
I cast…cat!
Just kidding, that's a Unix command, not a magic spell.
I cast Tenser's Floating Disk, just to be oddly specific, but fail to specify if it's a floppy or hard disk.

I decide to put the disk into my computer, which recognizes it as a floppy with 4TB of capacity.
Unfortunately, I can't format it, as this computer expects floppies to use FAT12 format, and FAT12 doesn't support filesystems beyond 256 MB (and that's with a big cluster size). Wait, did I say cluster size? Well, I guess the disk exploded like a cluster bomb, destroying this computer.
I use one of the Pokemon moves that's been nicknamed Super Glitch. (I can't post the actual name of the move, as it (the name) is not stable and can be very glitchy.)

Meanwhile, I'll cast the Spell of Mastery on the next user.
I open a portal to an alternate dimension where magic still exists and cast X-Ultra.

It appears that it's not so ultra, as the Ultra in the spell's name has been X-ed out. As a result, your spell ends up canceling its own effect.
I cast Miracle on the next user, and use it to mimic the effect of the Miracle spell being used to mimic the effect of the Miracle spell being used to... (this continues recursively forever).
