Make a wish...AND HAVE IT HORRIBLY CORRUPTED!!!

[HannahF]

Granted but the townspeople think you are performing dangerous magic and riot, trapping and killing you with pitchforks and torches

I wish I could freeze time

[KarenH]

Granted, but due to a misspelling by the wish-granting fairy, you freeze THYME instead, and while your cooking skills improve, you still have trouble with your TIME management.

I wish I could instantly learn how to play music on my keyboard.

[1168Programmer]

Granted, and you become so good that people only want you to play the piano, so you are forced to quit your robotics team and your team loses because you weren't there to take care of some very important design/build aspect.

I wish our robot wasn't illegal...

[Superllama12]

Granted, but the reason it was illegal was because it was an ALIEN ARTIFACT WITH ALIEN EGG SACKS THAT STEAL YOUR SOOOOOOOUUUUUUL!!!!

I wish I could pull a Jace the Mind Sculptor out of a Worldwake pack...wow, I am a nerd!

[ChaosX73]

Well, anyway, I have no idea who Jace the Mind Sculptor is, so I am going to have to say that Light thinks that taking such an action would be illegal, so he uses the Deathnote to cause you to get the Zerg infection and get torched by the U.S. military. Oh, and a meteor hits.

I wish our bot's CRio wasn't acting like it isn't connecting to my computer, even though it is.

I wish that I could use alchemy the way Ed does in FMA (kudos if you've read THAT)

I have, atleast most of it. My favorite character is Lt. Hawkeye.

[mangagirl41]

Granted, but then your computer would blow up

[ChaosX73]

The fact that you have not made a wish proves your non-compliance. You are promptly assassinated.

I wish Portal 2 was out RIGHT NOW!

[1168Programmer]

It is, but it causes you to waste so much time that your team's robot is an utter fail.

I wish NetBeans would actually work properly.

[Superllama12]

Turns out that they are actually EXPLODING NetBeans

I wish I wasn't a sponge, because filterfeeding is kinda boring

[ChaosX73]

Okay, now you're a three-toed sloth, which may seem kinda boring. However, you have to eat leaves really fast or else the tree will inject them with poison and your limbs will lock up as you fall two stories onto a hard jungle floor and panthers gobble you up. Oh, and you also have to go poop a lot, so panthers can get you then, too.

I wish games would install from steam on my laptop faster! (I also wish I could play L4D without it lagging like crazy.)

[Superllama12]

But then a supervillain would be all like, "Ooh, a fast computer, I need it to use for my evil plans" and you'll be like "Oh no, I'll fight you for it" and he'll throw a bunch of radioactive gerbils at you who bite you and then you'll be like "I'm Gerbilman" and he'll run away with the laptop and then you'll try to become a world class superhero and erase your past so that you can be a cool superhero with a terrible childhood and no parents but nobody wants to be saved by a Gerbilman and you'll become a hobo and ride a train to Guatemala and get bitten by a malaria mosquito and DIE!!!

I wish I was able to post a sentence that wasn't a run on, but then I couldn't say what I want to say, so I should post in a run on, but I don't want to, and hay this is a run on, and uh-oh I spelled "hey" wrong whoops unexpected exclamation point in 5...4...3..!

[KarenH]

Granted. You will never again write run-on sentences. However, now you can only write Dick-and-Jane style sentences: "See Dick run! See Jane laugh! Run, Spot, run!" Moreover, you still can't say what you want to say, because you really don't want to say anything about Dick and Jane, and you can't put enough words together to say anything about robots, let alone have a serious discussion about robotic controllers, drive trains, and the like.

I wish I could have a weed-free yard.

[mangagirl41]

Granted all the weeds will disappear...for 2 days but on the 3rd day giant Venus flytraps will sprout and eat anyone and anything around

i wish i had super speed

[ChaosX73]

Okay, but then you run so fast that you open a rift in time and, because galaxies move so fast, you are transported to the 70s, out in space. You explode due to pressure differences and nobody knows until your frozen remains get vaporized in the atmosphere of some under-developed alien planet. The aliens hail the strange occurences and begin worshipping them, thinking them to be signs from their god. Unfortunately, they are so obsessed, that they wait for another sign, which never comes. They wait so long that they all die of starvation. You just wiped out an entire species, great job hero.

I wish the drive train for our bot was finished so I could test my autonomous program.

[vigkvagkv2]

Granted, but the autonomous is written for a different kind of drive train.

I wish it could be dinner time so my team can sing "Be a Man" together in the pouring rain outside.
