okay, so things are slowing down around here lately, so i jacked a game or two from another forum.....

this one goes like this:
you make a wish and the next person grants it, but spoils it. likee so:

i wish i was a fly on a wall at an important meeting

(the next person's response, for example)
granted, but everyone there is armed with flyswatters

so i wish i could twitch my nose and my housework would be done

subterranean

People here are very playful indeed ;)

But still bit blank about what kind of game we play thoug....

verybaddmom
07-12-2004, 09:15 PM
let's see...to my wish of having my housework immediately done, you could have responded with something like:
granted, but you will have ten children to mess it all up again right away
or
granted, but all the mess ends up in the yard

its just a game where you 'grant' people's wishes, but show how the wish could be screwed up.
then, you make your own wish for someone else to screw up for you.

Jay
07-13-2004, 01:26 PM
"i wish i could twitch my nose and my housework would be done"

granted, but then some rude guy blows your house into tiny bits ;)

(if I got it I'm not supposed to make a wish...ruining it is more fun anyway :D :angel: )

papayahed
07-13-2004, 02:12 PM
Jay, I think you are suppossed to make another wish, so that I could ruin it, and so on and so on.....

right VBM?

verybaddmom
07-13-2004, 03:19 PM
precisely. now we have nothing to do till jay comes back and makes a wish....

papayahed
07-13-2004, 03:20 PM
I'll make a wish:

I wish I could go to Mars.

verybaddmom
07-13-2004, 03:23 PM
granted, you go to mars, but then the martians steal your pants.

i wish i could teleport myself anywhere i want to be.

Koa
07-13-2004, 03:55 PM
granted, but then you'll remain stuck in a time wharp or wahtever it's called (no idea why, but you'll be! :mad:)

I wish I was a famous singer

verybaddmom
07-13-2004, 04:03 PM
granted, but someone people will follow you everywhere screaming your name and you will not have a moments peace, ever.

i wish i could win the lottery

Koa
07-13-2004, 04:10 PM
granted, but your winning ticket will be stolen by your worst enemy who'll runaway with it and enjoy richness

I wish I lived in England

verybaddmom
07-13-2004, 04:19 PM
granted, but you cant afford to buy anything because it's so expensive, and it rains constantly and your shoes all get mouldy because of it.

i wish i was finished my degree.

Ender
07-13-2004, 04:53 PM
Granted, but there are no jobs so you're stuck where you are now.

I wish I worked at Marvel Comics

emily655321
07-13-2004, 05:08 PM
Granted, but Stan Lee is your boss. Think about it.

I wish I was the only person in the world who didn't have to pay for CD's.

verybaddmom
07-13-2004, 05:28 PM
granted, but they have to be played in a special CD player that costs you more money than it would have cost had you bought EVERY CD that you could have ever wanted.


i wish that i could fly

Ender
07-13-2004, 06:42 PM
Granted, but you can't land.

I wish I got to see movies for free.

Koa
07-13-2004, 06:47 PM
Granted, but then you'd do that all day till they chain you to the chair and force you to see all movies over and over especially the crap ones, sort of like Alex in the clockwork orange.

I wish I was a cat.
(err...that came to my mind cos my crush loves cats, he'd like me then... but this was just a piece of (too much) useless info...go on with the game)

Ender
07-13-2004, 08:47 PM
Granted, but then your breath would smell like cat food.

I wish Ralph Wiggum actually existed.

emily655321
07-13-2004, 10:29 PM
Granted, but the leprechaun would tell him to burn your house down.

I wish cats could talk.

verybaddmom
07-14-2004, 03:57 AM
granted, but your cat never stops complaining about his food and litter situation and it makes you nuts

i wish i had a life.

emily655321
07-14-2004, 05:46 AM
Granted, but you're too busy to visit the forum!

I wish I could stop thinking of realistic consequences of these wishes and just wish random ill curses on people like everyone else. :p

papayahed
07-14-2004, 09:12 AM
Granted but then you feel soo guilty you smash your computer to bits.

I wish I had the power to read minds.

verybaddmom
07-14-2004, 01:53 PM
granted, but then you are so busy listening to other people's thoughts that you totally neglect your own needs and go crazy.

i wish i had enough money to pay my bills next month

verybaddmom
07-17-2004, 04:06 PM
no one wants to wreck my wish?
fine, i'll do it myself.
granted, but then my bills are ten times as much in September.

i wish that people spent more time on this forum when i am bored ;)

amuse
07-18-2004, 12:04 AM
yes, but then you would become bound to your us and your comp like superglue, and require nail polish to detach yourself. :D

i wish i utilized my time better.

seeker
07-18-2004, 01:07 AM

i wish i were an oscer myer wiener

verybaddmom

(gosh it was hard to keep that one clean!)

i wish that all yummy food was fat free

emily655321
07-18-2004, 07:42 AM
Granted, but then all the food with vital nutrients in it would be ten times more fattening.

I wish there was a god.

seeker
07-18-2004, 01:57 PM
granted, but he is your little brother

i wish Florida had waves like Hawaii, year round

Jay

I wish I weren't dumb :D

emily655321
07-19-2004, 12:19 AM
Hey! :D How am I supposed to answer that one?
Granted, but everyone else in the world would become exponentially dumber. (Well, it's true. :p)

I wish I had all the money I need to pay for college, so I could prepay it all, right now.

Koa
07-19-2004, 08:30 AM
Granted, but then you'll find out your college is a fake one and they runaway with the money :D:D:D

I wish I had the courage to invite that guy out without feeling worse after doing it.

Jay
07-19-2004, 04:21 PM
Granted, but later on you'll find out he's gay ;):D (meanie me :angel: ).

I wish I had a Scotty handy all the time... 'Scooty, beam me to ..., Scotty, beam me back' :p

Koa
07-19-2004, 05:13 PM
Jay, I already think he's gay... how can he not want me otherwise? :D:D:D I just wish I could enjoy his presence without feeling worse afterwards.

And I don't understand your wish so I'll let the next one play...

papayahed
07-20-2004, 10:20 AM
Granted but it breaks in mid transport and you stuck in a million different pieces.

I wish I could live on a beach and go to work in a boat.

amuse
07-20-2004, 01:25 PM
granted, but your boat always leaks.

i wish i could understand what cats are thinking/meowing.

verybaddmom
07-20-2004, 03:29 PM

i wish that i could fly anywhere in the country that i wanted

Lothwen
07-20-2004, 04:09 PM
granted, but somebody may kill you as a bird

I wish I could live without air, water and food

verybaddmom
07-20-2004, 07:12 PM
granted, but then you will experience no pleasure from good food, or clean water or breathing deep on a spring day after rain.

i wish that my computer had more hard drive space and speed.

(ps. LOVE YOUR AVATAR!!)

Miranda
07-20-2004, 07:28 PM
Granted..but a virus will soon sort that one out!

I wish I had a plate of pizza and chips..and icecream for afters..n..a strawberry or two - with lots of sugar on mmmmmm

Ender
07-21-2004, 12:55 AM
Granted, but you will be lactose intolerant and get indigestion

I wish I wasn't lazy

verybaddmom
07-21-2004, 10:22 PM
granted but then you would be so busy all the time and never stop to smell the roses (or talk to your friends online)

i wish my bf was back from ontario already.

evulik
07-22-2004, 01:26 PM
granted....(why do you need him? you have us online ;) )

I wish it was saturday morning, forever, well at least soon if it is not possible to have it forever

verybaddmom
07-22-2004, 01:40 PM
granted, but then there is no work days left, and your bank account slowly drains and becomes a negative number and there is no way to earn a living.....

i wish i had an ice cream cone right now.

(and i hate to say this, but there are many many needs that he is able to fulfill that you online folks are unable. ;) and besides, i love him.)

Stanislaw
07-22-2004, 02:30 PM
granted, but it is pistachio flavour.

I wish that I had divine powers.

verybaddmom
07-22-2004, 02:44 PM
granted, but, like bruce almighty, you would be constantly bugged by people asking for stuff and would never have time to use your powers for yourself.

i wish that i could golf well.

papayahed
07-22-2004, 03:22 PM
Granted but then golf is outlawed and replaced with Frisbee (Disc) Golf.

I wish broccoli tasted like cheeseburgers

emily655321
07-22-2004, 03:53 PM
Granted, but then everything else would taste like broccoli.

I wish my new keyboard would get here.

verybaddmom
07-23-2004, 02:17 AM
granted, but it is dyslexic so everything you type comes out backwards.

i wish that there was a 24 hour store open near me (i really want some dorito's right now)

nome1486
07-23-2004, 02:24 AM
Granted, but they no longer stock Dorito's...this game makes me feel so mean!

I wish I was a master athlete

verybaddmom
07-23-2004, 02:28 AM
granted, but then you slip and fall when you are running and have to take up fishing......

i wish i had a video phone

nome1486
07-23-2004, 02:31 AM
granted, but it makes you look like (insert ugly person's name here) and gives you a voice like a cheese grater against rocks

I wish I could stop hiccuping

verybaddmom
07-23-2004, 02:44 AM
granted but you start sneezing immediately and cant stop and then get the world record for consecutive lifetime sneezes....

ive said it before and i'll say it again, i wish i had a teleporter!

nome1486
07-23-2004, 02:50 AM
ah, one wish unequivocally granted! (the hiccuping, I mean)

no, your teleporter wish is granted but it doesn't work properly and you end up looking like a cross between a Picasso and a Seurat

I wish I could jump into a book or movie

emily655321
07-23-2004, 04:27 PM
Granted, but the book/movie is "It."

I wish clowns didn't exist.

nome1486
07-23-2004, 07:04 PM
Granted, but then neither does laughter

I wish I could talk to animals

Max Whittaker
07-23-2004, 08:54 PM
Granted, but then you uncover a secret plot by the animals to enslave the human race and they are forced to kill you to protect their secret.


I wish I could see the future.

evulik
07-24-2004, 02:27 AM
granted (get in touch with me then pls, would like to know what's out there ;) )

I wish day has 30 hours (I need 15 for sleep)

verybaddmom
07-24-2004, 03:16 AM
granted but then you have 36 hours worth of stuff to do, and still end up not sleeping enough...

i wish people did what they say they are going to do

Jay
07-24-2004, 01:27 PM
Granted, but then the number of murders would rapidly increase ;).

I wish I could do more than just sit here wishing I could do more.

verybaddmom
07-24-2004, 02:57 PM
good thinking jay...would never have thought of it that way.

granted, but then you are really overwhelmed by the amount of things you have to do and have a nervous breakdown.

i wish i was better at this game.

nome1486
07-24-2004, 03:18 PM
Granted, but then you get really bored with everyone else and can't enjoy it because no one else is as good as you

I wish...I had a thousand wishes

verybaddmom
07-24-2004, 05:25 PM
granted, and one day you slip and fall and drop them all over the place and then people come running and steal your wishes, and you are left with none.

i wish i had a fax machine

Miranda
07-24-2004, 05:41 PM
granted..but then you forgot to wish for some paper to put in it.and you aint got none..so tis a fact your fax is useless I'm afraid.

I wish I could be where I want to be

Koa
07-24-2004, 06:00 PM
granted, but then you would like to be in too many cool places and you'll be split in many bits and each one of them ends up to a different place

I wish I was 2 metres tall ;)
(no idea of how much 2 metres is in your weird ways of measure... that's very very tal anyway ;))
(edit after converting: that's 6' 7")

nome1486
07-24-2004, 06:03 PM
Ah, I know the agony of being short...although I'm not really that short (5' 1"), but people say I am. Your wish is granted, but on windy days you can't stand up straight and end up humpbacked.

I wish I could time travel

Koa
07-24-2004, 06:07 PM
(I'm not short, I just didn't know what to wish ;))
(edit after converting: I'm almost 5' 7" apparently)

granted, but then you'll do something wrong in one era and mess up the whole course of history (like in movies)

I wish I could spray my brother's cat PURPLE!!!

nome1486
07-24-2004, 06:12 PM
Well, technically you could, but...assuming you mean you wish you could do it without killing the cat or being arrested for animal cruelty, I'd say your wish is granted but then the cat gains superpowers and turns you into a dancing banana.

:banana: :banana: :banana:

I wish stupid TV shows didn't exist

Koa
07-24-2004, 06:16 PM
granted, but then you'd have nothing to laugh at when you're extremely bored

(and yes you got my point in my wish...I've been called a criminal by the guy who haunts my dreams when I expressed that wish ;) :D)

I wish I was living in the 1800s

nome1486
07-24-2004, 06:21 PM
(that's horrible! did he mean it seriously?)

I share that wish...somewhat...but I must point out that when granted, we would be using chamber pots and wearing corsets and around a lot of really smelly people.

I wish my dog could live as long as I do

Koa
07-24-2004, 06:31 PM
(well don't think it was serious no...;))

granted but then your dog will be all wrinkled... (and btw, are you so mean to make him live a long life even if he's not purple? life has no sense when you're not purple... ;))
(i will probably soon regret being so silly :blush:)

Ok a classic now...I wish I could take my a*s away from this chair and go to bed

nome1486
07-24-2004, 06:36 PM
Haha...granted, but then you lie awake all night wondering what wonderful thought of mine you're missing (actually, I have to leave soon too).

I wish I had telepathic powers

Koa
07-24-2004, 06:42 PM
granted, but then you'd get interferences with satellites and radio transmissions and such and it will be a mess

I'm really off to sleep now...
I wish tomorrow I won't feel guilty when I get up laaaaaate in the morning
(and I also wish this forum wasn't SO addictive...does double wish count???)

evulik
07-25-2004, 04:02 AM
just because it is you KOA, granted granted granted ;)

I wish I was in better mood

Jay
07-26-2004, 02:40 PM
Granted, but then being in a better mood is soooo wide in meaning, you might end up having giggling fits. Owie stomach, face, all body, been there, done that, got the T-shirt :D.

I wish Chris was still here. (Let Eva grant it as she's never granting the wish and spoiling it afterwards... pwease? Or I should wish for something else... ack, someone turn brain off! Too noisy in there today)

Ok, changing the wish, suppose I shouldn't have wished that anyway.
I wish distance was a nonexistent issue.

verybaddmom
07-27-2004, 12:48 PM
granted, but then you could literally run, but never hide

i wish that i didnt have to spoil wishes....

Koa
07-27-2004, 03:43 PM
granted, but then we wouldnt be playing this game...

I wish cats didn't lose all those hairs :mad:

verybaddmom
07-27-2004, 04:02 PM
granted but then your cat would end up just being this huge fluffy ball of hair, and you wouldnt even know which end is worth cuddling

i wish i could selectively not feel pain

nome1486
07-28-2004, 12:09 AM
granted, but then the pain you do feel is 10 times worse and the pain you don't feel leads you to hurt yourself without knowing it (you make me into a sadist!)

I wish I were better on the violin :)

simon
07-28-2004, 12:16 AM
Well consider yourself suddenly the most talented and reknowned violinist in the world the only problem is that all your lovers turn into untuned violins that you are forever condemed to retune when not performing.

I wish for truth and freedom.

nome1486
07-28-2004, 12:26 AM
Granted, but then beauty and love disappear from the earth

I wish that I could watch great movies over again without knowing anything about them, to get that wonderful first-viewing feeling

amuse
07-28-2004, 12:39 AM
granted, but then you would never remember anything about them either.

(felt awful writing that - i liked your wish.)

i wish i could see what air looks like.

nome1486
07-28-2004, 12:44 AM
aaw, thanks...actually, I really like yours too. Now, how can I mangle it?

I guess if you could see air, you could never see anything else.

I wish I could speak all languages

evulik
07-29-2004, 02:44 PM
wau grant it to me, I will grant it to you :D seriously, granted

I wish my dog starts talking... (you know, every time he looks at me with that wise look and I wonder what he thinks - probably sth like "you silly, I understand what you tell me and you do not understand me... if you could see how awfully good/bad you look naked hihi) ;)

Taliesin
07-29-2004, 05:43 PM
Granted, but it would mean that you and your dog would make a body-switch and you were in the body of a dog and he were in the body of you and could talk. But you couldn't.

I wish I could compose great music. And that my life wouldn't be spoiled by fans. And that I would be happy about my life.

Try to spoil this one

nome1486
07-29-2004, 07:24 PM
I have a way to spoil it...not to grant it! :lol:

All right, I'll play by the rules even if you won't (just kidding ;) ). So, if being happy about your life is part of your wish, your great music ruins everyone else's lives by making them despair of ever doing anything so remarkable; people lose all interest in life and simply spend all day listening to your music. The entire world is, in effect, hypnotized by your music, and you don't care because you are blindly happy with your life, which consists solely of making music for everyone else to listen to. Doesn't sound like much of a life to me...

Okay, that maybe wasn't so good, so I'll pass it on to the next person to give their spin on it. If we work at it, we'll somehow find a way to dash your dreams.

By the way, there is something about the word (name?) "Taliesin" that is very familiar, and it's bugging me that I can't remember. Where did you get it from, if I might ask?

Miranda
07-29-2004, 07:35 PM
Well I think taliesin wish should be granted..but the great music she makes will just sound like a discordant din to her, which will make her all hot and flustered..without a single fan anywhere to switch on and cool her down.

I wish I had a beefburger with onions and tomato sauce and then some banana flavoured icecream for dessert. And I wish I could motivate myself to bed....

nome1486
07-29-2004, 07:41 PM
Oh, that sounds delicious. I'll grant both wishes, but then all that sumptuous food would unsettle your stomach and keep you up all night. The sad facts of life...

I wish I could transport myself anywhere in the world (to visit all these wonderful places where people in this forum live!)

Taliesin
07-30-2004, 05:02 AM
By the way, there is something about the word (name?) "Taliesin" that is very familiar, and it's bugging me that I can't remember. Where did you get it from, if I might ask?

Taliesin is the name of a legendary bard. You can read about him here. (http://www.pantheon.org/articles/t/taliesin.html)

And your wish is granted too, but you would have to sell every single thing you possessed and you would see the place through the eyes of a slave.


My wish would be that I could live at the time when Sokrates did, so that I could talk with him. (I really wouldn't mind if he made a fool out of me)

nome1486
08-01-2004, 03:59 PM
Thanks Taliesin, that eases my mind considerably. Otherwise that would have been bothering me for weeks. :) Interesting story, by the way.

Well, I'll grant your wish, but your boundless wisdom is such that you confound even Socrates, and he retreats to a cave as a hermit to meditate for the rest of his life on his conversations with you, cutting short his teachings and taking away the basis for modern philosophical thought. And you were afraid he would make a fool out of you...

I wish you could see the stars at night without "light pollution" no matter where you are.

Jay
08-02-2004, 11:45 AM
Granted..... actually don't want to spoil your dream :). K, granted, but guess you might grow bored of seeing the stars all the time you'd realize it's too comon to be considered a dream any longer.

I wish all your dreams (within reason though :)) would come true for you all here.

Liina
08-02-2004, 04:17 PM
That`s a really nice wish but ok then: people`s wishes can be worst nightmares to some other people.

I wish the rain would stop.

Taliesin
08-02-2004, 04:37 PM
Granted. It will stop after three years.

I wish that my holiday would last a bit longer.

Jay
08-02-2004, 07:49 PM
Granted, you got yourself one more day ;).

I wish to get rid of the headache and toothache... hope I will NOT have to go to the dentist's again this year ;). Swear the guy's a sadist :D lol.

Taliesin
08-03-2004, 05:12 AM
Granted. When you go to the street and cross the road a car will put end to your misery.

I wish I could fly.

Jay
08-04-2004, 09:43 AM
LOL Taliesin, you're very kind :D hehehe. Don't tempt me though lol.

Granted, just keep an eye out for missiles...

I wish I could live with Bekki. (best friend)

evulik
08-04-2004, 03:14 PM
granted, but be careful once you get to live with him/her your friend might become an enemy... ;)

I wish my dog does not make mess once I get out of the house :rage:

Jay
08-04-2004, 08:15 PM
Granted... you never get to leave the house ;)

I wish I could understand people.

*Bekki's a she, and I doubt that Eva :)*

nome1486
08-04-2004, 11:30 PM
Granted, but then you wish you didn't because some things are better left unknown.

I wish every Royals (baseball) game could be as good as the one tonight :).

Jay
08-05-2004, 03:13 PM
*true nome, very true :)*

Granted... could a good game get boring if it's good for too long? ;)

I wish I owned more good music :p

evulik
08-09-2004, 02:51 PM
granted.. I wish the same, but it would be boring if I post it again.

I wish I owned all books from J.M. Simmel (I love it!) :thumbs_up

Jay
08-11-2004, 06:47 AM
Granted, but then a huge fire burns down your bookcase but oddly enough nothing else.

I wish I wasn't tired ;)

Taliesin
08-23-2004, 03:39 AM
Granted, you tiredness will vamish after three weeks.
I wish that USA would sign the Kyoto protocol. (this is not political, is it?)

bbq13
08-28-2004, 02:21 AM
granted... but you'll have to grant me my wish...

i wish this thread would never end... (bwahaha...)

Jessika
08-30-2004, 11:20 AM
Granted, but then we all forget reality because of the great amount of wishes we are thinking for this thread :P


I wish work didn't occupy so much time daily!! When do we live??

bbq13
09-09-2004, 08:19 PM
granted... but then you would have to play dodgeball for the rest of your life... (bwehehe)

amuse
09-09-2004, 09:44 PM
what is your wish? :)

i wish that global warming would slow down.

Taliesin
04-23-2005, 03:46 PM
It will.
The global warming will stop. It will be hit by an giant asteroid and be split into small pieces that will go cold very fast.

We wish that this game would be transported to the "Games" forum.

Koa
04-23-2005, 05:13 PM
I don't have that power but I think that could happen quite soon...but then all the people would start wishing and the Genius would be too busy and spoil all the wishes...no wait that's the game...:D

I wish I talked less and acted more.

Bandini
04-23-2005, 05:22 PM
Granted...but...did you see the episode of Teilight Zone where the boy wished for the girl to shut up and she ended up with no mouth. Very disturbing.

Jay
04-25-2005, 07:17 AM
You're supposed to make a wish now, Bandini :)

Scheherazade
04-28-2005, 11:04 AM
I wish Bandini didn't forget to make wishes or ask questions while playing games! :p

kilted exile
04-28-2005, 12:34 PM
Granted, but the questions he poses are completely unaswerable, resulting in the death of the thread.

I wish I could afford to buy a car.

Loki
04-29-2005, 03:23 AM
I wish my poem would be accepted for publication.

Scheherazade
04-29-2005, 03:33 AM
For the new members of the Forum, here is how we play the game:
this one goes like this:
you make a wish and the next person grants it, but spoils it. likee so:

i wish i was a fly on a wall at an important meeting

(the next person's response, for example)
granted, but everyone there is armed with flyswatters

imthefoolonthehill
04-29-2005, 04:00 AM
loki: your poem is accepted for publication,

but the magazine went out of business before anyone but 4 people on an editorial board could read it.

I wish to never lose ambition.

amuse
04-29-2005, 10:39 AM
fool, your ambition will remain with you throughout the rest of your days; you will, however, lose your mind.

i wish to never grow 35 - i mean old. :p

Jay
04-29-2005, 10:51 AM
Granted, but of course, then you realize 25 is way too old as well...

I wish I could understand people ;)

Helga
04-29-2005, 12:22 PM
Granted, but then you realize we are all simple and boring and you can't get away from anyone cause finally someone understands them and you'll never be alone.

I wish I could go 10 years forward in time so I can be a writer and a teacher in a good University in England and live in a windmill.

imthefoolonthehill
04-30-2005, 03:18 PM
granted, but by going forward ten years in time, the space and time collapse behind you, killing everyone but the time-traveler.

you live where you want, and have to teach an classroom filled with scarecrows.

i wish i could see little numbers above people's heads that give their IQ.

Bandini
04-30-2005, 03:19 PM
You can - but you look in the mirror and see '86'!

I wish I could fly, high up in the sky...

Bandini
04-30-2005, 03:21 PM
Obviously that would not actually be the case Fool. Incidentally, is the 'fool' tag in honour of Shakespeare's wise fools?

Helga
04-30-2005, 06:33 PM
Granted, but did you know how freezing it is up there, you won't make it for more than 2 minuets....


I wish I could speak German

baddad
05-01-2005, 05:08 AM
wish granted, you are completely fluent in German. However, everyone else on earth only speaks english and lack any ability to learn another language.

Even in jest I shrink from wishing. To me, wishing is a negative, an attraction for receiving without any effort on our part. *end of mindless spew #13764*

*mentally preps for the 'Salem' solution to this occurence*...I wish I had magic powers.

Jay
05-01-2005, 06:59 AM
Granted, but you don't know how to use them anyway ;)

I wish I wasn't tired :p

Koa
05-01-2005, 10:12 AM
Granted, but then you sleep all the time and never are online anymore :D

I wish I had stayed in Hungary one more semester.

mono
05-01-2005, 10:17 PM
Granted, but fate would pre-suppose you to have kidnappers from another country steal you away to their rich, yuppie loft where they would consult you of spying for another country, mistaking your accent for another's. They would question you vaguely of bomb threats at popcorn stands, until, realizing their mistake, would abandon you in the Ural Mountains, where you would make a living trading asbestos, mountain goats, and yaks to keep warm while consuming the softer parts of coniferous trees and shrubs.

I wish I could own a more comfortable chair for my computer.

amuse
05-01-2005, 10:56 PM
granted, but it will be so wonderful that you will never want to leave it; in fact, you will spend the entirety of your life in it.

*okay i thought that was funny until i contemplated on all the repercussions of THAT thought! :p

i wish i were not a hopeless romantic.

Jay
05-02-2005, 09:20 AM
Granted but... what's wrong with that? ;) Ok... hmmm... granted but if you weren't you'd end up falling for very random guys ;)

I wish I knew better :D

Scheherazade
05-02-2005, 09:31 AM
Granted; you will know better but you will be distraught to discover that you don't do any better...

I wish I were more disciplined.

Jay
05-02-2005, 09:49 AM
Granted, but then you'd turn into an inanimate thing ;)

I wish I knew and did better ;) (hope I'm not breaking the game's rules :p... not :D)

Scheherazade
05-05-2005, 01:11 PM
Granted but you will find life very boring then because you know and do better... always... all the time.

I wish chocolate was a kind of low fat, low calory fruit. Oh, even better! I wish chocolate helped you burn fat... the more you ate, the slimmer you got!

Taliesin
05-05-2005, 01:16 PM
This is way too easy.
You become addicted to choclate and die of malnutrition.

We wish we could find medieval clothes for a LARP.

Scheherazade
05-05-2005, 02:54 PM
Granted but the costume is enchanted actually and will take you back to the Medieval times as soon as you put it on and you won't be able to come back.

I wish trains did not break down or got canceled or delayed.

Helga
05-05-2005, 03:12 PM
granted, but then your future husband a train-repairman never gets a job and sits at home all day drinking beer and complaining about the fact that you can work and he can't.

I wish I could read faster.

Koa
05-05-2005, 05:28 PM
granted, but then you'd read so fast that you'd run out of books in 2 hours then get bored as hell

i wish i was more impulsive when it's about making decisions.

kilted exile
05-05-2005, 05:31 PM
granted, but you become so impulsive that you constantly make decisions which turn out badly.

I wish I could live in outer space.

amuse
05-05-2005, 05:37 PM
granted but you will live an abnormally long life all alone because no one else can.

i would like all a's in my classes this semester

Helga
05-05-2005, 05:51 PM
Granted but then they decide to have a system with numbers and noone understand why the heck you always get a's...

I wish my bedroom was clean...

Koa
05-05-2005, 06:53 PM
granted but then where's the fun? ;)

i wish i didnt need any sleep

mono
05-06-2005, 02:32 AM
Granted, but then you would have no great potential chances of dreaming.

I wish I could sleep. :goof:

Jay
05-06-2005, 04:38 AM
Granted, but you'd have nightmares everytime you're asleep and you'd wish you didn't make that wish ;)

I wish I could master time.

mono
05-07-2005, 01:39 AM
Granted, but then you would have less room for spontaneity, and, truly, "spontaneity is the fruit of life." :D

I wish I could play the piano better.

Jay
05-07-2005, 10:06 AM
Granted, but after you find out you're suddenly a piano genius, all the pianos just... WHOOSH! disappear from the face of Earth! :eek2: :D

I wish a day would have more than 24 hours if it's a good one and not even 2 hours of it's a REALLY bad D day.

Helga
05-07-2005, 10:21 AM
Granted, but you do realize that when your having a good day I may be having a bad day so you'd be putting a curse on all living creatures and no one will be able to enjoy a day with you unless they are as happy as you are...


I wish it was winter all year long here on the Ice

Koa
05-07-2005, 11:04 AM
Granted, but then you would have no great potential chances of dreaming.


I never remember my dreams anyway.
--------------------------

Helga, granted but then everytime you go out you fall on the snow.

I wish the sun was purple :D

mono
05-08-2005, 01:56 AM
Granted, but then everything already purple would turn a neutral color.

I wish I had an extra day of my weekend to have off from school. :(

Helga
05-08-2005, 10:48 AM
Granted, and I really don't want to ruin your wish because I know you've been working hard the last few weeks :)


I wish I hadn't spilled Coca Cola on my laptop (I hope it's not ruined)

Taliesin
05-08-2005, 01:07 PM
Granted. You spilt Fanta.


We wish that we would do well on our flute exam tomorrow.

mono
05-08-2005, 02:52 PM
Granted, but then you may never discover your natural talent for another instrument, being more and more focused on the flute.

I wish I could wish someting witty. :p

Koa
05-08-2005, 03:46 PM
Granted, but then we wouldnt know how to spoil it

I wish I had a pet monkey :D

Helga
05-09-2005, 12:14 PM
Granted, but he had a shot, minuets before you got him and he will bite you and you will go all berserk and attack everybody like in 28 days later.


I wish it wasn't raining

Koa
05-09-2005, 12:24 PM
Granted, but then the sun gets warmer and warmer and you find yourself in 50 degrees and that might be not pleasant.

I wish I didnt have to study for the exams

mono
05-09-2005, 05:44 PM
Granted, but then, if you required no studying, and if you knew everything already, what seems the point of attending school?

I wish I did not wish so much. :p

Helga
05-09-2005, 05:50 PM
Granted, but if you had no wishes you wouldn't know what you want to do or to happen in your life.


I wish I wasn't alone all the time...:(

Jay
05-10-2005, 11:44 AM
Granted, but then you'd be crowded with lots of people and not much of them relativelly nice.

I wish I didn't have to sabotage Helga's wish. :(

amuse
05-10-2005, 01:29 PM
granted but then the game will end
:eek:

i wish i didn't have my fingers crossed behind my back like a pre-teen when i said that, thereby nixing the wish. :p

Chava
05-10-2005, 01:52 PM
granted, but then this link will be un jinxed.

I wish this wish weren't jinxed...

Helga
05-10-2005, 02:10 PM
Granted, but then I wouldn't have try to unjinx it by making a happier wish that was easy to ruin.

I wish I wouldn't have to go to work tomorrow

amuse
05-10-2005, 03:05 PM
granted, but the love of your life may come in tomorrow to see his great-grandma.

i wish i didn't have 8:00 classes this summer

Snukes
05-10-2005, 03:41 PM
Granted, but then you'd have to have a class that started at 6am. :)

I wish I knew something about the thesis I am supposedly writing.

Helga
05-10-2005, 03:47 PM
Granted, but you forget everything else.

Amuse, cross your fingers for me :)

I wish my bedroom was clean....

Jay
05-11-2005, 08:29 AM
Granted, but then only way to achieve that would be having a bare room with nothing in it (personal experience :p)

I wish I knew what I wanted.

kilted exile
05-11-2005, 09:03 AM
granted, but it is kept in a locked room which everyone has a key to except you.

I wish I didn't have to go to college this summer.

Snukes
05-11-2005, 10:08 AM
Granted. Instead you get to go to boot camp.

I wish someone would come cook me dinner.

Jay
05-11-2005, 11:10 AM
Granted, but then you realise it's the only meal you hate the most and only the sight of it makes you so sick you'd opt to go to bed hungry instead :p

I wish it stopped raining already!

Helga
05-11-2005, 01:33 PM
Granted, but you didn't say it should start again someday so it will be so dry you won't get water and the WORLD WILL END!!!! :)


I wish I wasn't so cold.....

Scheherazade
05-11-2005, 01:37 PM
Granted but then you will be so hot that you will be sweating profusely, making it impossible for anyone to get closer to you.

I wish nobody ruined my wish! :D

Jay
05-11-2005, 01:38 PM
grrrrr

Granted, but then I'd be more than eager to tell you you're posting in the wrong thread :p

I wish we would have that lit forum meet-and-greet thingy.

Snukes
05-11-2005, 04:26 PM
Granted, but then you'll have to deal with too many of us LIVE will scramble your brains.

(Not so much a spoiler as a prediction. :D)

I wish I had some M&Ms.

mono
05-12-2005, 02:08 AM
Granted, but then, when you get them, and eat too many, you will wish you would have asked for Skittles. :thumbs_up

I wish I could sleep.

Koa
05-12-2005, 03:26 PM
granted, but then you should wake up in 100 years but the prince loses his way so he doesnt wake you up

i wish i had turned the light on

mono
05-13-2005, 01:13 AM
Granted, but then your eyes would have to irritatingly adjust to the light, walking blindly for a few bothersome moments.

I wish I did not have to wake early tomorrow morning for school. :eek:

Snukes
05-13-2005, 09:38 AM
Granted - you will not have to wake up because now you will never be able to sleep again!!

I wish I had some self-discipline.

kilted exile
05-13-2005, 03:36 PM
granted, but you spend the rest of your life bored out of your mind.

I wish I had even the slightest degree of musical ability.

Helga
05-13-2005, 05:39 PM
granted, but you have so much musical ability that you won't be left alone for the rest of your life.

I wish I lived away from home

Snukes
05-13-2005, 06:23 PM
Granted. I hope you don't mind coping with no air and zero gravity. :p

I wish I had a magic pen that would write papers for me.

kilted exile
05-13-2005, 06:27 PM
granted, but it only works with invisible ink.

I wish I was in Scotland.

Keltic Banshee
05-16-2005, 01:05 PM
granted, but then you'd have to leave again to not return in a really long time...

(I know this one is really easy to spoil but... )
I wish I could read other people's minds... at least of those who are really dear to me...

Snukes
05-16-2005, 03:44 PM
Granted. You will soon know so much about those people you hold dear that you won't be able to stand them anymore.

I wish the weather would get just a little bit warmer.

mono
05-16-2005, 06:40 PM
Granted, but then the tolerance of warmer weather would also increase gradually, and, as more people wish and wish for warmer weather, you will find yourself in a downward drift of the hottest and least tolerable climate possible. :eek:

I wish I did not have a required evening class tonight.

kilted exile
05-16-2005, 10:40 PM
granted, it's at 3 in the morning instead.

I wish I had superpowers

amuse
05-17-2005, 03:43 PM
granted, but so does everyone else, so you never notice them.

i wish i could take back everything i said saturday night/sunday morning. i don't care what the 'but' part of your answer is!

Snukes
05-17-2005, 07:07 PM
Uh oh amuse! Uhh... Granted, but instead, someone will have said some horrible things to you.

I wish it wasn't past my bedtime.

mono
05-18-2005, 02:17 AM
Granted, but then you would have never procrastinated in giving us the pleasure to see you post this message. :)

I wish I had not taken such a long nap earlier today, the reason of which I feel so awake now.

Keltic Banshee
05-20-2005, 12:11 PM
Granted, but then you would have to stay awake late tonight for some strange reason...

I wish... I wish people around me stop lying to me...

Nightshade
05-20-2005, 01:02 PM
granted but now people will always tell you the bitter horrible truth (ever seeen liar liar)

I wish exams had never been invented

Snukes
05-20-2005, 05:45 PM
Granted. Now the guy you visit when you're sick is only reliable if you *think* he's reliable...

I wish I could speak any language without having to learn it first.

Keltic Banshee
05-21-2005, 04:43 AM
Granted, but you would mix them all when speaking and people wouldn't understand you...

I wish... I wish I had a remote control for time...

Nightshade
05-21-2005, 07:29 AM
Granted but it would get stuck on pause.
I wish I could stand on my head.

mono
05-21-2005, 05:05 PM
Granted, but then you may get stuck that way - like what parents tell you when making a silly face. :p

I wish I did not have so much paperwork due for school on Monday.

Nightshade
05-21-2005, 05:09 PM
Granted instead school starts sunday and its due tommorow.
I wish I wasnt so bored...

Snukes
05-21-2005, 06:20 PM
Granted. And now you'll never ever be able to leave the forum again! :D

I wish I had Keltic Banshee's stuck-on-pause time remote!

Keltic Banshee
05-22-2005, 02:56 AM
Granted, but then it would start working and i would want it back....

I wish... I wish flights were cheaper, so that i could visit my friends easilier

Jay
05-22-2005, 06:27 AM
Granted, but then you'd be stuck flying once the teleportation device is invented.

I wish teleportation device to be invented... let's say, within the next week :p

mono
05-22-2005, 09:56 AM
Granted, but then researches will choose you as their first tester, and you will find yourself lost in space. :eek:

I wish summer would approach already!

Koa
05-22-2005, 05:34 PM
Granted, but then it gets sticky hot for 3 months without stopping and you'll want to be in the Siberian Winter instead (why does this remind me of reality)

I wish I didn't have to re-take half exam just cos the teacher is a moron

Helga
05-22-2005, 05:59 PM
Granted, you have to re-take it because he is a genius... (I have no idea what I'm talking about)

I wish I had money to buy books tomorrow when I go to town.

Keltic Banshee
05-23-2005, 06:17 AM
Granted, but then you'd spend all your money on books and wouldn't have any left for the rest of the month...

I wish I was back in Ireland with someone who loved me...

Nightshade
05-23-2005, 09:17 AM
Granted but then you could never leave them!
(this is reminding me about some quote about the prisons we choose?)

Anyway I wish I didnt have to go study now!

Jay
05-23-2005, 11:38 AM
Granted, but if you don't, you'll fail the exam :D

I wish I could pass the exams without studying for them :angel:

Nightshade
05-23-2005, 02:35 PM
granted but then you would never feel happy about passing.
I wish I knew what to wish for

amuse
05-23-2005, 06:13 PM
granted, but then you will never be satisfied with what you already have.

i wish my saved homework had not just disappeared from word

Jay
05-24-2005, 07:17 AM
Granted, next time you're gonna play it safe and e-mail copies of the homework to dozens of people in case Word goes all Microsoft on you again ;)

I wish I passed my phonetics exam *crosses fingers* :D (hint, no one's allowed to ruin this wish :lol: )

kilted exile
05-24-2005, 04:30 PM

I wish I was finished college

Nightshade
05-25-2005, 08:23 AM

granted, but it's no use for the rain.

I wish I had a better computer

Keltic Banshee
05-26-2005, 03:32 PM
Granted, but then it would crash every few minutes and become even more annoying than the one you have (believe me... crashing computers can be really annoying)

Hm... I wish people stopped making decisions "for my own good" without even asking...

kilted exile
05-27-2005, 11:15 AM
granted, people ask. Then make the decision for you anyway (better?)

I wish it wasn't so warm outside.

amuse
05-27-2005, 06:28 PM
granted. it will become so warm inside that outside temperatures will be likened to swimming naked in antartic waters.

i wish that all men (except my brother, of course) would ignore me.

Koa
05-28-2005, 03:40 PM

I wish men cared of me instead :D ;)

Keltic Banshee
05-28-2005, 04:21 PM
granted... but then they would all end hurting you...

I wish... I wish I was a truthsayer... or, in other words (for those who haven't read or seen Dune), I wish I could tell when somebody is lying to me...

Miss Darcy
05-29-2005, 02:35 AM
Granted. (Dune - I thought Dune was a perfume? ;)) However, you won't be able to tell a joke from a lie.

Now, what do I wish...umm...I wish there was less suffering in this world...

Nightshade
05-29-2005, 09:58 AM
Granted but then all the interesting times would be over!

I wish I had a red Che Gevera t-shirt (my current obssesion) ;) !

chmpman
05-30-2005, 03:17 AM

Jay
05-30-2005, 04:32 AM
Granted, you find her, but she's not interested in you at all.

I wish I wasn't too lazy to prepare a breakfast today in the morning, hungry :D

Helga

Well it is almost what's happening... :blush:

Helga
