Constipating Temptation
Instant
Mana Cost: B
Target opponent chooses one — They discard three cards at random; or they gain 3 life and can’t cast spells until their next turn.
Due to how they work, it's impossible to have modal spells and abilities cause targeted players to perform the choice of mode. The player choosing the mode needs to not be targeted.

Is this better? I added a line specifying that you choose an opponent when you cast this spell for multiplayer purposes.
When you cast Constipating Temptation, choose an opponent.
That opponent chooses one — That player discards three cards; or that player gains 3 life and can’t cast spells until their next turn.

That doesn't work. Modes for a modal spell or ability are chosen upon putting that spell or ability on the stack. An ability that triggers "when you cast" a spell will trigger far too late for modes to be chosen.

Try:
An opponent chooses one -
That player discards three cards at random.
That player gains 3 life and can't cast spells until their next turn.
This says nothing about what I think of the ability or power level.

"Any player may discard 3 cards at random. If no one does, target opponent gains 3 life and can't cast spells until their next turn."
"Sometimes, the situation is outracing a threat, sometimes it's ignoring it, and sometimes it involves sideboarding in 4x Hope//Pray." --Doug Linn

This says nothing about what I think of the ability or power level.
Each opponent may discard three cards. Each opponent who doesn’t do this gains 3 life and can’t cast spells until their next turn.
As for the card name, I think it is only terrific if you have a juvenile sense of humor. For better or worse, I do.
