Granted! Your next argument results in your opponent conceding the correctness of your ideas and converting to your point of view. However, you immediately have a hostile visit from the Prince of Insufficient Light asking you about the sudden cold snap he's been experiencing.

Granted, you now live in the Buffyverse. The catch is, you know that hell dimension that Buffy sent Angel to at the end of season 2? Welcome home.
I wish that I could get out to the store to replace my TV this week.

Granted. You awaken to discover that your visit to the Buffyverse was all a bad dream ... instead, you're now a living, two-dimensional, big-eyed anime character, surrounded by insufferably-cute pokemon.
I wish I'd made more useful progress on the netbooks this weekend.

Granted. All series like Buffy and Pokemon disappear from the TV, but at their place are only interviews of Britney Spears and Paris Hilton who are trying to talk about serious matters!
I wish one of my favorite TV programs is still on TV.

Granted. The new Ravenloft TV show finally comes on air, and in spite of all worries, is extreamly good, managing to maintain its gotic roots whirlst not going overboard on the Gore, in spite of one corpse, mangled beyond reckognition, in episode one.
The catch? well, as you just pulled me out of one TV world(quite literally), you had to go into another. Balance and all that. Guess which?
I wish for suficiant technical skills so I am able to build a machine that alliows me to safely grant my own wishes.
Try twisting that.

Submitted for your approval, Moral Machivelli, aptly named for intelligence and ambition, has a vision of a machine the likes of which the world has never seen. But to make that vision a reality, he'll have to take out a loan at the first national bank... of the Twilight zone.
[Moral Machivelli:] Eureka! I understand everything now. I can finally build my Infernal Machine. Oh wait, I now also know that to build it, I'll need a billion dollars. Hmmm... how high is my credit limit?
[Mysterious Banker:] Greetings, Moral, I'll gladly front you the cash. For a piece of the action, of course.
[Moral Machivelli:] Sweet.
27 days, 18 minutes later....
[Moral Machivelli:] The machine is built. I'm ready to make my first wish.
[Mysterious Banker:] Then I don't need you anymore. (Pulls out gun).
Blam! Blam!
The machine is mine. I'll activate it now.
[Infernal Machine:] One wish in que. "Wish my machine was a bomb". Granting...
Submitted for your approval, Moral Machivelli, a man who's every wish came true. But wishes have a way of getting twisted... in the Twilight Zone.
[Car honking in background]
[Angry Customer:] Hey! You open or not?
Sigh... I wish I wasn't a gas station that had to stay open at night.

Granted. In the frigid darkness of Pluto, the world you now occupy, it's very peaceful indeed. (I don't say, "where you now live" for the obvious reason.
I wish my neighbors would stop making so much racket in the middle of the night.

Granted! But your credit card gets tired of only doing all the paying while you make all the purchases, so one day it goes out on a shopping spree, maxes itself out, then makes the payment late, causing you to get a huge late fee, and your credit score takes a big dive.
I wish I could find a non-bootlegged copy of Suikoden II, in English, in good condition, for under $20.
