Granted. You now spend all of your time frantically ping-ponging backward and forward in time - never staying in one period long enough to even talk to the other people in that time. Enjoy!

I wish all of my med school loans were already paid off.

Jill

Granted! A well-meaning relative comes in and pays all of your debts. Unfortunately, he borrowed money from the mob to do it, and now they're after both of you for the first high-intrest installment...

I wish...

You know what? I'm sensing a trend here.

You people are never going to give me what I want, are you? You're just going to take whatever I ask for and ruin it. Is that it, huh? Is that your game? Do you find this amusing?

Okay, well, if that's the way it's going to be...

I wish Lex Luthor was alive and well.

So there.

If that's the way you want it, Paul...

Granted. Lex Luthor is alive in all his glory, able to use the Internet. However, he is very displeased that a Google search of his name gives as top result a number of L&C sites, where he is always portrayed as an evil villain, not to mention that a good number of FoLCs hate him. And because he can't be bothered to look up who hate him and who don't, he decides to have all known FoLCs around the world murdered. Including you.

I wish my Advanced Mathematics homework for tomorrow morning would do itself.

See ya,
AnnaBtG.

Granted. Ever see Fantasia as a kid?

I wish I were Spider-Man.....

Granted! It's an awful shame that something went wrong and you look more like a spider than you do a man. But hey, I'm sure all those extra legs are useful when you're running away from the giant Nike in the sky...

I wish I could find this CD I've been looking for.

Granted, but your attempt to steal it from the US National Music Museum 's Hall of Rare Albums pits you against their surprisingly good security system. You did indeed find the CD, but weren't able to get your hands on it before you were caught and turned over to the police. Your hearing is scheduled for some time about 6 months from now. Good luck.

I wish the various companies I deal with (McAfee, Comcast, Dell, etc) all had free, readily accessible technical support, provided by a friendly, helpful, and competent* US-based staff.

Paul

*Like Karen...

Granted! But can you speak Punjabi, Gujarati or Urdu? Because the Indian computer industry has become so amazingly successful that they've taken over all those firms and outsourced their tech support to the US, but haven't taught their staff English yet.

I wish the forthcoming Superman Returns film didn't have a plot derived entirely from its name.

Granted! It now has no plot at all, and consists of 90 minutes of pointless fight scenes in which Superman gets beaten up by every known villain in existence, each of whom is in possession of every known form of Kryptonite in existence, while Lois Lane stands on the sidelines and screams inanely.

I wish I'd finished my coursework for the week.

BTW... now in Manchester, Phil? Changed jobs?


Wendy

Granted, but the it allgets destroyed in a freak acident. You get thrown off your course and can never get work again, ending up living on the streets and eating McDonalds.

I wish Adolf Hitler and Joeseph Stalin were never born.....

Granted. But the socio-economic forces which they harnessed are still in place. Someone else rises to power, and things go a little differently. WWII still happens, but this time it goes on for over a decade and ends in nuclear war, with bombs going off in cities around the world. Even more people die, and the survivors have to contend with radioactive fallout and nuclear winter.

I wish quality education was freely and readily available to everyone in the world.

Granted! However, because everyone is now intellectual, toilets back up, there's trash in the street, and world war 3 is started over arguments in evolution. Cockroaches take over, learn to read the textbooks, and laugh at we call "knowledge".

And thanks, Paul, for the compliment! I like being called competent.

I wish.. hmm. I wish Godiva's hot chocolate and Bailey's irish cream liquor tasted good together.

Granted. Godiva chocolates and Bailey's now taste great together. So great in fact that you indulge in a disgusting amount of them both, causing your stomach intense distress, eventually resulting in severe nausea AND being hungover. To top it all off, you have an important meeting with your boss at work the next day so you have to go. But you're so sick, you end up losing it all over your boss and getting fired. So now you're so poor you couldn't possibly afford Godiva chocolates or Bailey's, even if you wanted them, which you now don't b/c just the thought of them makes you feel ill.

I wish I didn't live so far away from my husband so I could spend his birthday with him.

Granted, your husband moves to where you live (Why don't you live together if you don't mind me asking?) but he dies in a car accident on the way there. (Too harsh?)

I wish Buffy Summers never came to Sunnydale....

Oh no wait, that's someone else's wish.....

I wish I had a million dollars (American dollars). In cash, in a safe, hidden where only I can get to it, completely indestructible and completely legally mine.

Granted! You do! One million US dollars, all in lovely crisp Monopoly money.

I wish I could think of something interesting to cook for dinner.


Wendy

How about turkey with mashed-peas-and-aubergine filling and pineapple-and-whiskey sauce? Sounds interesting enough, no? Too bad it tastes horrible. Four hours of cooking gone to waste...

I wish that the snowy weather we're having will not lead to power outage or water frozen in the pipes.

See ya,
AnnaBtG.

Granted! No sooner has 20 feet of snow fallen than a warm air mass moves up from the south, and there's a massive thaw. All you have to worry about now is flooding -- but not anywhere where it will cause the power to go out. Of course, a lot of people die of electrocution when the water hits live power cables...

After a day of marking which was rather depressing, I wish more of my students had passed their exams. :rolleyes:

Granted. They passed them right on their way to the local pub. Oh, you wanted them to sit the exams and then pass them? Sorry!

I wish my feet weren't like blocks of ice despite being huddled up beside a radiator.

Yvonne

Side note before granting this wish, know the feeling of freezing feet!

Granted your feet are now warm to bad it is caused by the radiator catching fire and burning your feet now they are not only warm but defintely toasty too!

I wish it would rain so the drought can finally break

Granted! It rains! The drought is over! Everyone is so happy about this that they all immediately fill up their pools, water their dying lawns, and take nice long showers. Within a week, the drought is worse than it was before.

You wish for it to rain again, and it does! Only this time, it rains so hard that it's dangerous to go outside. Some of the more fragile things take heavy damage. Of course, it's acid rain, too, so you're even worse off. Then the harbour floods. Dams overflow and then start to break. Soil is eroded and washed away. Oh, and there's mud all over the place.

Among those who did go out in the rain were the rugby and soccer teams. It's too bad that such dedication is so poorly rewarded. Seems exercising in the rain like that isn't so good for your immune system. Most of them come down with a particularly bad strain of the flu, and are unable to play for months while they recover not just from the illness but the ensuing dehydration and such.

But hey, no more drought problems!

I wish humans could read and project thoughts and feelings at will, so that there would be no more lies, no more misunderstandings, and no more prejudices based on superficial differences.

Granted, too bad terrorists can now read the thoughts of those in charge of sercurity. Millions die as a result.

I wish someone would write one of my suggestions on my "Fanfics I'd Like To See" thread.......
