Corrupt a wish

[Kekec]

Granted, but an hour lasts several minutes.

I wish the Earth was attracted to me instead of vice versa.

[Krisje]

Granted, now you have to carry it's entire weight on your shoulders

I wish all food and drink packages would automatically disappear as soon as you empty them

[Shadowclaw]

They disappear... onto an alien world, who eventually tracks down where its coming from and declares war on us.

I wish I could find the perfect avatar....

[Krisje]

Granted, but the site won't accept it

I wish I could fall asleep already

[Hazel]

Granted, but you plagued by extremely lucid nightmares.

I wish I could fly.

[Krisje]

Granted but you fly right into an aircraft's turbine

I wish I didn't have nightmares

[Hazel]

Granted, now you can't sleep.  8-)

I wish I could fly a plane.

[Krisje]

Granted but you are put on the no fly list.

I wish all my work would be finished in just one hour

[Kekec]

Granted, but you start sleeping with your boss.

I wish I could remember everything I read.

[Hazel]

Granted, but that's all you can remember and think about.

I wish all actors did their own stunts.

[Krisje]

Granted but because they kept dying while attempting to do stunts, no more movies could be made

I wish someone would come and clean my house

[Kekec]

Granted, but you have to pay him sexually.

I wish fire could freeze.

[Anjelita]

Granted. But then fire starts freezing everywhere until even the sun and the stars are nothing but ice and the world is dooooomed.

I wish I could crank out posts by thought alone.

[Kekec]

Granted, but only your most private thoughts get out.

I wish elephants could talk.

[Hazel]

Granted, but they only talk about how much they love peanuts.

I wish the moon was made of cheese.

[Krisje]

Granted and because of that it falls down on earth, wiping out all life.

I wish I never have to pay again when I go shopping for clothes and shoes.

[Hazel]

Granted, but everything you take from the stores catches on fire when you walk out the door.

I wish I was fire proof.

[brokenvegetable]

Granted .... but fire has been replaced by water..... you still get burned

I wish for the ability to create things from nothing

[cptBacon]

Granted, but the only things you can create are Furbies. And only one can exist at any given time. While this isn't inherently useful, it does allow you to be a jerk to children.

I wish I could fly.

[AmberStarfire]

Granted, but there are a couple of flaws that make your attempts at flying bloody terrifying. 1) every so often, purely at random, you lose the power for 8.83 seconds. It can be hard to know if it's better to be way, way up in the sky or closer to the ground when that happens. 2) you're lacking superhuman vision, so if you put on a burst of speed, it isn't always possible to foresee buildings, birds, bats, planes or bugs. Combined with 1, you may encounter problems from two separate trajectories.

I wish I had the power to bestow or cancel wishes as I see fit, with no side-effects, disadvantages, limitations, lack of control, retribution or misperception by the universe.

[Kekec]

Granted, but you can't. ;-)


I wish it was 1920's.

[SereneRemembrance]

Granted... you'd probably see your grandmother as a little girl..

I wish for a winning lottery ticket.

[Immortal]

Granted, but it gets stolen by your best friend.

I wish I was a potato.

[FionaM]

Granted, you are the last potato in Ireland during the famine.

I wish I was a mermaid.

[Nic]

Granted, except a real mermaid is a manatees!

I wish I  could sing
