they do...but they just dont care:mad:

I wish our team went to the Robotics world championship (Like i said, i dont care if we get pwnd:yikes: )

FreelancerTex 01-04-2009 16:39

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Did you read my message?

Also you make it to the World Championships of Robotics only to find it is the FLL not the FRC and you get powned by sync swimmers that do robotics, and they are nine years old.

I wish people would be nicer and they learned how to listen better.

KarenH 02-04-2009 01:18

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
They are nicer, and they do listen better--but they are also illiterate, and no one can read your posts, so you can't function on the Internet any more. In fact, there is no longer any Internet, and no Chief Delphi--also no FIRST because now no one can read the game manuals!

I wish people would read what my posts actually say, not what people wish they said.

Granted, but they don't like what your posts say, and start going off about you lecturing them and they don't want to be here and things like that. (Sound familiar?:yikes:)

I wish that the piles of snow would melt before the next snowstorm...

flippy147852 02-04-2009 10:11

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
The snow melts, but it all runoff comes into your house, flooding it from top to bottom :eek: . Bummer!

I wish I could go to the Michigan State robotics comptetion instead of going on vacation :ahh:

You know you're a geek if...

ReapersRule 03-04-2009 14:09

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
You go to the competition, you just aren't entered.

I wish my team would win first at BattleCry

Finleym 03-04-2009 14:13

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Wish granted, you go to the Michigan State competition and have a fun time. Unfortunately your team does not win the competition and you return to your home for a long nights rest.

Does it not seem corrupted yet? That might be because I forgot to mention that the destination and date of your vacation changed to the International FIRST Robotics Championship in Atlanta Georgia. At least you had fun in Michigan.

I wish "Microsoft Time" were more accurate.

ReapersRule 08-04-2009 14:25

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. It is accurate to the millisecond in EST.


I wish I was a billionaire

drumfreak 08-04-2009 21:45

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. But you end up getting arrested because all of the money is counterfeit.

I wish I never had to do english homework.

EricH 08-04-2009 22:08

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. You now have two science labs, a pile of math homework that you left from all your events this year, a history assignment that requires research, AND about 3 weeks worth of Spanish homework. All of which is at the college level. Roughly 2nd- semester or above. And more is coming in.

I wish I didn't have class tomorrow.

(Oh, and for flippy147852-- I live in a 5-story dorm with basement, on the second floor above ground level on my side (which means first floor on the other side), a ways up the hill from the nearest floodplain. Corruption FAIL. Or else a 10,000,000-year flood.)

Wish granted, the flippy147852's twelve feet of snow causes school to be cancelled. However, it knocks out the phone lines and covers any exits. Better start rationing your food.

I wish for a Petabyte Flashdrive.

Thing2_1723 09-04-2009 15:33

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. but your petabyte flashdrive crashes your computer and you lose everything.


i wish my science grade was better that a B+...

Cody Carey 09-04-2009 15:35

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Wish granted: Your science grade is now an A. Only problem is that since your increased science ability in the past lead to you earning more than a b+, You forget how to properly communicate, and couldn't write your wish in the first place. Resulting in your science grade once again being a b+, which results in a never ending loop of delicious monotony. We might as well call you Roland Deschain (Hopefully that wasn't TOO nerdy)


I wish that my wish couldn't be corrupted.


P.S. Take that, non circular logic!

dragonrulr288 09-04-2009 15:51

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
wish granted, just please know you ruined our fun.. no more wishes for you!!
;P



I wish Atlanta is fun for everyone that is going/watching/helping/ect....

Finleym 13-04-2009 13:50

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Wish granted, everyone does have fun, no matter what they are doing. However, all that they end up doing is standing in place with a vacant expression and doing nothing.

I wish that my school's Technology department weren't as restrictive concerning in-school network storage and use.

flippy147852 14-04-2009 13:26

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
granted, but every single website with but an ounce of entertainment value will be blocked

THIS INCLUDES CHIEF DELPHI!!! OMG NO!!!

I wish I knew an unblocked proxy site that will let me on www.thebluealliance.net

ReapersRule 14-04-2009 14:10

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. There are now no limits for storage, but now there's so much stuff you can't find anything.

I wish my team had a meeting this week

EricH 14-04-2009 14:13

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. The meeting turns into a big argument, nothing gets done, and the team splits. Neither half of the team competes next year due to the ongoing squabble, or the year after, and then it's a feud, and now nobody remembers the fun they had in FRC, only the battle within the team.

I wish that circular logic didn't exist.

Finleym 17-04-2009 14:16

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Wish granted, now logic is full of angles and no one can keep on subject.

I wish that there was no snooz button on the alarm clock.

BuddyB309 19-04-2009 17:48

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Now the ringing is constant and eventually the sound waves from millions of alarm clocks synchronize into one giant pulse, RIPPING A TEAR IN SPACE TIME CONTINUM! Cybermen come out from another dimension along with roman cyborg seagulls that shoot laser beams out of their eyes.

I wish FIRST would acknowledge animation more.

flyingcrayons 20-04-2009 18:15

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
granted, but then they lose focus on robotics, and FRC becomes FAC (FIRST Animation Competition) and no one remembers when robots were a part of FIRST

i wish i could have more than 2 hours of sleep last night

BuddyB309 20-04-2009 21:29

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
granted! but in order to grant your two hours of sleep of the previous night, you are sent back in time to last night only to sleep for two hours. Then you are woken up and have to experience the same day over again. Expect now you are even more tired because technically, you only received two hours of sleep after a days events.

I wish for a red tornado that will fly me to the moon and I will dig up cheese to sell back at home.

I wish Andy Baker could have saved 1529's robot from catching on fire back in IRI of 08

BuddyB309 21-04-2009 08:26

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Wish granted, unfortunately the only thing Andy Baker had handy was a bucket of water. So all the robots electronics are ruined anyway.


I wish for a red tornado that will fly me to the moon and I will dig up moon cheese to sell back at home.

Finleym 21-04-2009 14:12

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
wish granted, but since you were unprepared for the lack of oxygen, the sudden temperature and pressure changes, and the force required to reach the moon, you cannot breath, freeze, and shatter. Your remains however complete your wish by slamming into the moon's surface and effectively dig into the rock, reching an unkown pocket of red cheese. (Don't underestimate physics.)

I wish that I could convice my friend that they need more than twenty hours of sleep a week.

BuddyB309 21-04-2009 18:14

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Abra Kadabra! Your wish is granted! You talk to you friend and actually convince him/her to get some more sleep. That night, as your friend is driving home, his/her vehicle is struck by a rampant Moose with a serious overuse of cologne. The malodorous moose's fumes enter your friend's nasal passages and completely override his/her olfactory system. The surge in electrical pulses in your friend's brain causes him/her to seizure, soil himself, and have a slight taste of mild cheddar cheese in his/her mouth before collapsing unconscious on the ground. Your friend now spends the next three months in a coma, you have to give him/her sponge baths and change the bed pan.

I wish my roomate's cat would stop stinking up the place each time it took a poop.

dragonrulr288 22-04-2009 17:25

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
granted, but there are 15 more cats now. at least it not the origional's fault!!!

I wish I could play the piano...

Taylor 23-04-2009 09:15

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
You become a virtuoso, but your dragon eats the piano.

I wish my cold was gone.

BuddyB309 23-04-2009 09:21

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, Your cold is now replaced with hot.

SPONTANEOUS HUMAN COMBUSTION!

I wish I could have more time to animate.

dragonrulr288 23-04-2009 22:23

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
granted, but now you have forgotten how to eat, breath, ect. and arent in very good shape.....

wait.. I have a Dragon???? Sweet!!!

hmm... then I wish to have annother piano...

sgreco 24-04-2009 15:47

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Wish granted, but it grows teeth and eats all inanimate objects in your house.

I wish I had a cow.

BuddyB309 24-04-2009 23:39

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
granted you get a cow. but

OMG! IS THE HOT GIRL'S OBNOXIOUS FAT FRIEND!:ahh:

I wish stupid drives did not have cars.

Finleym 27-04-2009 13:56

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
wish granted, now they all have tractor-trailers (a.k.a. 18-wheelers).

(Wow, ROFL to my last wish that was corrupted, just wow, ROFL. Not because they would be injured, just ... well... ROFL.)

I wish my avatar would actually work. (It's a .gif file, but it isn't playing for some reason.)

BuddyB309 29-04-2009 00:29

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, Your Avatar pops off the screen grabs a little hat and briefcase kisses you on the cheek and says "Bye honey I'm off to work." You have to take care of the Newborn.

I wish chickens were pink and the sky was made of huckleberry fin.

Finleym 28-09-2009 10:55

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Wish granted, the sky is now made of huckleberry fin's skull, the earth his flesh, the mountains his bones, the seas his blood, and the stars his eyes. The chickens have been stained pink from their frequent dust baths in huckleberry's flesh. Creation Myths to the rescue!!!

I wish our high school marching band improves and fixes the mistakes that we are making.

delsaner 28-09-2009 11:59

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
granted, but only 25% was granted... the 75% needs to go to my schools marching band....

I wish my homework would do itself. X__X

EricH 28-09-2009 13:37

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, but now you don't know the material and your tests are 75% of the grade. You fail every single one of them miserably, forcing you to stay in high school an extra year. You are also not allowed on the robotics team due to lousy grades.

I wish my school day was over...

NorviewsVeteran 28-09-2009 14:35

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, but it's only Monday, you still have the rest of week to trudge through.

I wish more of my friends could come to the state fair this weekend.

Samheartsrobots 28-09-2009 15:38

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, but at the fair there's a horrible accident involving some 1,000 chickens escaping and most of your friends have some deep peck wounds.

I wish my sprained foot would heal faster.

KarenH 29-09-2009 00:11

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. Your sprained foot heals instantly, but while leaping for joy, you slip on a banana peel and break an arm.

I wish I would spend more time thinking about important things.

Finleym 29-09-2009 10:39

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Wish granted, you now think about important things constantly. One day you sit down to find the question to 42 and lose track of time. When you finally find the question you discover that centuries of mineral deposits have have formed on your skin and you are unable to move. How ironic that you had assumed the position of "The Thinker" when you first sat down.

I wish will get well soon, and in the mean time that they take this chance out of school as an opportunity to get some sleep (they have probably had only four hours of sleep in the past four days).

Katie_UPS 29-09-2009 23:05

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
They finally get sleep, but you all over sleep kick-off, ship, and all the regionals plus atlanta.

I wish meetings weren't so long and pointless.

delsaner 30-09-2009 12:34

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
granted, but your team would do horrible, and your board of education cancels the team, and leaves every 1675 member out on the road with nowhere to go... and no one wants that.
>__>


I wish I wasn't in french class.

EricH 30-09-2009 13:48

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. You're in Japanese class, and you have to read CD in Japanese.

I wish that I had more free time.

Finleym 08-10-2009 09:58

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Wish Granted, you now have all the free time in the world. Unfortunately, due to the insane amount of free time you now have, you are taken to a mental institution, given a nice, new, clean jacket, and placed in a nice, softly padded room. Oh well, you still have all of that free time. Then again, the only things in the room seem to be you, the jacket, and the pads. Hmmm, that's strange. Why can't you move your arms?

I wish my school offered German, Latin, and Japanese as foreign language classes.

Chris is me 08-10-2009 11:30

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, but English is dropped and you have to learn all of your other classes in those languages.

I wish life (or Chief Delphi) had an undo button.

KarenH 08-10-2009 17:01

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. Your life now has an Undo button, but in your haste to use it, you hold it down too long, and your ENTIRE life is undone. Congratulations! You no longer exist, and your family and friends miss you terribly.

I wish our street weren't being paved on trash pickup day.

Ryan Simpson 08-10-2009 22:28

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. Right as the garbage truck arrives to pick up your trash, it pops a tire on the rough pavement on your streets. The truck must be towed away, so your garbage will not be picked up and the street is still not paved.

I wish I would stop procrastinating.

Samheartsrobots 09-10-2009 19:16

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, you now you anything you ever wanted/needed to do as soon as possible, but now you no longer have anytime left for FIRST. You also don't have anytime for friends or family. You have won several awards for discovering new things, but you now can't remember your middle name, your mother's birthday, your favorite food, etc.

I wish I could go out and stare at the stars.

Molten 09-10-2009 22:31

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, you go out to stare at the stars...but the only star in the sky is the sun. You stare at it for so long you turn blind.

I wish I got an interview with Rolls Royce.

Finleym 12-10-2009 10:48

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Wish granted, you got an interview with the CEO of Rolls Royce. When you get home you see a perfectly maintained, vintage Rolls Royce parked in your driveway. It must have been a gift from the CEO. Unfortunately, you are so surprised that you faint and smack your head on the pavement. When you come to, six months have passed. You find that your team, while you were in a coma, won both your regional and the championship. In addition to that, to afford your hospital care, your family was forced to sell your Rolls Royce. Oh well, at least you got to interview what's-his-face from Rolls Royce. Say, what did you two talk about again?

I wish that I could find my class ring. (lost track of it about three months ago, and I have been looking for it ever since.)

delsaner 12-10-2009 17:17

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted... You have your middle school class ring. You try it on and it no longer fits. You just wasted a wish.

I wish I did not have so much work due this week.

EricH 12-10-2009 17:45

I wish for more wishes.

Taylor 13-10-2009 08:45

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, but you do not receive a whole number of wishes. You slowly drive yourself insane trying to figure out how to make 0.324 of a wish.

I wish I had two rolls of black gaffers tape, two rolls of white gaffers tape, one roll of red, one roll of blue (all 2" X 60'), one roll of bidirectional filament strapping tape (3" x 60'), and a whole lot of 7" and 14" zipties.

EricH 13-10-2009 08:58

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. You fell asleep near them, and now you're in them. Pesky students.

I wish I was more awake.

BrendanB 03-11-2009 22:32

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. But then you have to get up at 3 am the next morning and can't sleep at all.


I wish that my sister would finally get a new car. (sharing a 1990 camry is fine, but she has 12k for a new car)

delsaner 04-11-2009 08:33

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted... She has a little toy hot-wheels car.

I wish I had straight A's in my classes.

JAZAD1 04-11-2009 10:11

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted... you have A's in all of your classes until they realize they made a mistake

I wish i had a cookie

J93Wagner 04-11-2009 13:01

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted ... And then you find out you are allergic to macadamia nuts.

I wish our design team (myself included) would work on improving our crab drive.

JAZAD1 05-11-2009 08:46

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
granted...you make the perfect crab drive and this year is a water game

I wish kick off would come faster

BrendanB 05-11-2009 09:12

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted... FIRST comes out saying that kickoff will come sooner. You are then glued to your computer eagerly awaiting kickoff. Kickoff comes Jan. 7 and you have missed Christmas and a chance to be on TV in times square demoing your robot to thousands of people in between stage performers.

I wish that I didn't have to drive 45mins to get to robotics.

J93Wagner 05-11-2009 13:24

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted... you invent the first practical teleporter only to have a technical malfuction leave you half of everything.

I wish I could go to sleep in a car.

KarenH 05-11-2009 17:38

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
You go to sleep in a car... at night... while driving on a road through steep mountains. You are critically injured, and your friends riding with you end up injured, killed, or comatose. Then your friends' families sue you for enough money to pay for 100 FIRST Robotics entry fees.

I wish I wasn't so quick to think up morbid endings to other people's wishes.

EricH 05-11-2009 18:06

Granted. Your dreams now get all the morbid endings, turning them into nightmares--as if they weren't already!

I wish for more time in the day.

BrendanB 05-11-2009 19:54

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. Scientists come up with a way to stop the earth from rotating around the sun adding 3 hours to our day. However, this process destroys life and the world fails to support life and we all die. Thanks for wishing Eric.:p

I wish that school was easier.

J93Wagner 10-11-2009 20:10

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted... and you are transported into the world of Fahrenheit 451 to do nothing and have censorship pressed upon you...

I wish I could figure out how to uninstall my Anti-Virus... and install a new one! :D

Finleym 16-11-2009 10:55

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
wish granted, you now know how to uninstall your old anti-virus and how to install the new anti-virus, which to your amazement is free, so you download it at school onto your flashdrive. Excited about your new-found knowledge, you decide to put it to use and you proceed to uninstall your old anti-virus. Once you are done with this you plug in your flashdrive to install your new anti-virus to find that your school network had what would normally be a rather harmless virus which has now transferred to your computer. Too bad you don't have your old anti-virus.

I wish that my AP Lit class had a lighter workload.

EricH 16-11-2009 11:01

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. The workload is now in all your other classes, and every other teacher gives you an amount of homework such that you can only do one class's homework per day, every day. You wind up flunking all your classes just because you wanted a lighter load in one--which you still don't pass, because you aren't doing the work for it.

I wish my Dynamics professor would show up for class today.

KarenH 17-11-2009 03:23

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. The prof. shows up, but forgets which class he's supposed to teach, and starts lecturing on grad-level petrochemical engineering. The students get totally confused, can't convince the prof. there's something wrong. Eventually, this prof. gets fired for incompetence, and the school can't find another, so you can't finish the class, and can't finish your degree.

Meanwhile, the prof. was out last week because he had extreme drug-resistant TB, and by showing up this week, he infects all the students in class, causing an epidemic that makes swine flu look like a mild cold.

I wish weather forecasters could be 99 percent accurate.

Chris is me 17-11-2009 07:13

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. They are 99% accurate within the hour of the weather happening.

I wish my team could find $6-10,000 in the next month. Just to have on hand, you know.

Ryan Simpson 17-11-2009 07:20

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. The weather forecasters are 99% accurate, but in the other 1%, they fail to mention a blizzard. Since you do not realize the severity of the storm, you decide that it will be fine to drive your car. On the way out, the storm gets worse, and you are unable to continue to drive. You are then stuck in your car for a few hours until a snow plow finally reaches the street you are on.

I wish I did not have so much to do today.

delsaner 17-11-2009 08:15

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, you were supposed to do it a month ago. You fail all of your classes.

I wish I wasn't sick.

But if you weren't sick, you would have to go school.

I wish I knew what the game this year is going to be.

GRANTED. But in the process of sneaking into FIRST HQ, listening in on several GDC meetings, you get hungry in your hiding spot and eat a Snickers, upon learning as much as you can you go home, design, and build a robot all by Christmas and spend all of build season perfecting it. However FIRST already knows that someone had been "in" on one of their meetings and eagerly search for clues as to whom was seen on the security cameras jumping out of the building. The find the Snickers wrapper, get your DNA, and test every person at each event and you are nailed. And FIRST automatically disqualifies you and your team mates from participating in FIRST again.

I wish that I get a much better score on my SAT's this time around.:o

Seeing as two wishes haven't been granted:

Sure, you have $10,000 in the next month. It's stolen, and what's more, the team credit card is charged for $1 million and you can't prove that it was not done by the team.

And, granted, you get a much better score on your SATs. You get a perfect score, in fact, leading every college and university in the country to send recruiting material to you. You're swamped for weeks, and when you finally dig out and eliminate most of them from your list, the remainder won't offer you and scholarships because you took too long to respond. You can't afford them, either, so you wind up not going to college.

I wish that the R/C airplanes my Aero Design team is building (5 are under construction) would be finished soon.

Granted, but your team totally gives up the project (we're finished/ loss of will)...

I wish that Kickoff was closer (time wise)...

Samheartsrobots 17-11-2009 18:53

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, you have traveled through time. It is now January 11th, but you don't know where you are and why all these men dressed in green are calling you "Sweetums".

I wish that I could make up all my sick work.

delsaner 17-11-2009 20:18

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. All of your sick work has been completed, and handed in. You receive many 0's because you did not learn the material on the homework, because you were sick.

I wish I had more motivation to complete my homework.

karatekid 18-11-2009 08:47

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. But now you are so motivated that you don't have time for CD or robotics and your robot blows up at competion.

I wish the game hints were more obvious.

EricH 18-11-2009 10:57

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. They're obvious to everyone else, who starts building at Kickoff while you're still trying to figure out what the game is. You lose miserably every round.

I wish that people wouldn't make such easy-to-corrupt wishes.

delsaner 18-11-2009 12:54

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, this thread comes so incredibly complicated, that people decide to give up and don't try. Everyone now forgets about the thread, and is never resurrected... ever again.

I wish I my GPA is higher than it is now...

J93Wagner 18-11-2009 22:21

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. You hack into your school's computer mainframe and raise your grades. However, the intrusion is noticed and you end up in jail...

I wish that I could learn Java...

Ryan Simpson 18-11-2009 23:06

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. You become an expert coffee brewer.

I wish that I would never have to go to sleep.

karatekid 20-11-2009 08:59

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. You now complete everything you ever wanted to, get bored with life, do drugs, and get arrested.

I wish that today was tomorrow so I could go ski

Finleym 23-11-2009 10:32

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Wish granted, however once it becomes tommorrow, tommorrow is now today and the cycle continues until the Big Crunch,

I wish that people wouldn't underestimate the distortion of the space-time continuum.

J93Wagner 23-11-2009 17:13

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. Someone overestimates the space-time continuum and Einstein's theory of Relativity and therefore come to the conclusion that Earth can not possibly be rotating around the Sun, and therefore, must be the center of the universe (1500's Christian theology).

drumfreak 23-11-2009 19:08

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Hmmmm...He didn't have a wish.

I wish I could think of what to wish for?

delsaner 23-11-2009 19:17

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. You found something to wish for, but you wasted your wish, and cant wish for it anymore.

I wish that Thanksgiving will come sooner.

Ryan Simpson 23-11-2009 19:22

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. It comes sooner, and then ends sooner as well.

I wish that my wish wouldn't be horribly corrupted.

Finleym 24-11-2009 10:31

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Wish granted, your wish is granted magnificiently well, however this contradicts the laws of the universe. To correct this, the next day the universe horribly corrupts your wish. However this contradicts your wish, so your wish takes over the next day and is, again, granted magnificiently well. After about two months of these daily cycling grantings, the stress of changing from one mental extreme to the other is too much for your brain to handle. In order to deal with this mental stress, you become increasingly delusional. On the bad days, you believe that a litter of puppies is waiting around every corner to lick your face. However you balance this out by believing that, on the good days, a host of demonically possessed half-rabid kittens are waiting around the next corner to leap upon you and tear you to bits.

(don't try to resist the corruption... trust me, it doesn't turn out well.)

I wish that I could go to my friend's tabletop gaming party tommorrow.

karatekid 24-11-2009 16:41

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted-you go and find your friends doing various illegal activites, and you go to prison for life.
I wish that there was an uncorruptable wish.

delsaner 24-11-2009 18:35

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. *read Finleym's corruption*

I wish I will do well on my physics quiz tomorrow.

BrendanB 24-11-2009 20:40

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted... us CDers do your test for you after sneaking out your test and redoing it. You receive an A+++ as you not only get every question right, but we also go extreme by righting a 1 page essay for each question on why the answer is correct. Your teacher is exstatic and decides to make that standard on all homework assignments and quizes. And all the other teachers decide to do the same as well. You then become the most hated kid in your class and become a social outcast. GOOD LUCK WITH THAT:yikes:

I wish my more people would show up to go grocery shopping tomorrow so that i don't have to pick trash out of the woods like i did today... true story and much much more!:o

Taylor 01-12-2009 12:13

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, but the trash piles up in the woods, is ignited by a carelessly discarded cigarette butt, and burns down not only the woods but your home as well. Unfortunately, caught in the blaze was Bambi's dad. Down two parents, Bambi comes to you as an orphan and expresses her gratitude with kicks to your face.

I wish the game hint released for this year's game is the actual name of the game.

Joe Schornak 07-12-2009 19:34

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. Nobody notices, and the hint is treated as any other game hint. Deep analysis is done into the numerical values of the letters in the phrase, and books using all or parts of the hint are collected and torn apart in search of some sort of meaning.
Then Kickoff rolls around and the entire CD community executes a simultaneous facepalm as the game is revealed. D'oh!

I wish that today had gone exactly as it actually went. (Ha! Corrupt that!)

Ryan Simpson 07-12-2009 19:46

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
It did, so you are dissapointed by my lack of an original corruption.

I wish that tomorrow MIGHT go exactly as planned.

delsaner 07-12-2009 20:52

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted, it might, but maybe i will try to ruin it tomorrow in band... ;)

I wish that I would find a way to ruin Ryan's day tomorrow.

Joe Schornak 09-12-2009 23:29

Re: Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!
 
Granted. He returns home from school to discover that his house no longer exists, having been transformed into countless tiny particles gradually settling over an area the size of Nebraska.

I wish I didn't have an exam tomorrow.

Granted. It was moved to today. Not only that, but you have 2 pop quizzes and 3 surprise exams, one of which is 50% of your grade and happens to be in your worst class, which you haven't been studying for anyway, so you totally flunk it, in addition to the zero for missing the one today. Say goodbye to your GPA!

I wish that circuit board bases would be made more quickly.

(There's a story, but the short version is that a class project for which 60 of an item are needed by Friday if possible, won't have 60 of that item by then. Guess what the item is...)
