The Corrupted Wish Game
Granted. But in order to win without actually playing, you need to fix the game. Not only did you steal your ticket (at gunpoint, no less), you carefully arranged for your numbers to come up. The truth comes out just in time for the airport security guards to stop you from getting on your flight to Bermuda. You're going to be spending an awfully long time in jail, pondering the exact cash value of this time. Your winnings have been split among all the losers, who get about the price of their ticket back.

I have Volvox on my pants. I wish I didn't have Volvox on my pants. If you don't know what Volvox is, I heartily suggest you Google it before you answer.

Granted. The Volvox spontaneusly mutates...into Kudzu [yes, I know, it's a plant and not a bacteria. Stick with me here]. You are consumed by the growing green mass.

I wish I had some music to listen to here at work today.

Granted. Would you prefer loud rhythmic screeching metal, loud rhythmic whines, or loud rhythmic saw noises?

Granted. It can also think, move, and see. One day, all the Play-Do in the world decides to come after you. Once you're buried under a deep mound of goo, it ignites. Bye-bye.

I wish I had time to eat breakfast before I leave for school.

Colonial Green Alga...sounds like a great band name to me (hey, it beats some real band names for weirdness, like Steel Pole Bathtub)!

Granted. You have time to eat breakfast; however, all you have to eat is Healthy Sticks™, which tastes about as good as it sounds :wacko:

I wish they would replace all of the motivational posters around here.

granted. After taking some drugs, you feel motivated to run around naked for a few hours.

I wish I could have a hydralisk for a pet.

Granted. Then you reconsider. Unfortunately, you reconsider too late to stop the hydralisk...

I wish I had my own transportation.

Granted. You are magically transformed into a living car (think Knight Rider). Unfortunately, it's a 1984 K-car with duct-tape-and-plastic-sheeting windows, 3 'donut' spare tires and cigarette burns.

I wish that it won't rain this weekend so I can go sailing.

Granted. It doesn't rain and you go sailing. Unfortunately, the sun corroded parts of your sailboat so it starts leaking in the middle of the ocean. Have fun out there. :whistling:


I wish my apartment was bigger.

It is bigger. Your rent just doubled.

I wish I knew who killed JFK.

Granted. You know who killed JFK, but as soon as you try to tell someone else, your teeth fall out of your mouth and your fingers go too numb to type.

I wish popcorn would not stick in my teeth.

Granted. You buy new dentflon ™ (dent for dental, flon for teflon) and spray it on your teeth. Now nothing sticks. Fumes from the spray give you cancer.

I wish I could see infrared rays as well as visible.

Granted. It's too much for your eyes to handle. Your brain is not equipped to deal with input on so many different wavelengths. You can't see anything clearly.

I wish I never had to prepare another wet-mount slide again. Ever.

Granted. You are able to trade your wet mount slide responsibilities for the job of working with ammonia, pure acids, and organic solvents. This is without a fume hood, gloves, goggles, any other protection, at 3 in the morning as you get real sleepy.

I wish birds could fly.

They already can... For insulting them they now fly over your house, your car, your picnic... with great frequency where they leave "deposits" for your enjoyment.

Wet mount slide?

We did something like that in the seventies. It involved hot oil and a twister pad.

Er, sorry back to your wishing.
All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.

And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.

"Isn't this where...."
