Granted! Your computer now has the most stable wireless connection that NASA ever dreamed of. The bill is about 250$/hour and the connection is so stable that you cannot switch off the computer (since that would cut off the connection).

I wish I had a free-of-charge wireless connection in my computer, as good as the one mentioned above.

Granted! The wireless network is so powerful, everyone in the neighborhood gets wireless cards and starts leeching off of it, driving your bandwidth through the roof.

I wish I had a full paying scholarship for U of I.

Granted! You receive a full-paid scholarship... but in order to keep it you must maintain a 4.0 average GPA, perfect attendance for your entire duration, and major in Latin. Oh, and room and board is not included.

I wish for a free thin crust pepperoni pizza to be delivered to my door this evening.

Granted. The neighbor's dog knocks over the garbage cans and drags a disgusting assortment of trash onto your front steps, including a three-month old thin crust pepperoni pizza that somebody finally got around to throwing out. (Oh, and while the pizza might be free, the dog insists on a tip. :wink: )



I wish to get over this cold immediately, then remain perfectly healthy all summer.

Granted! At exactly 12:00 on the first day of Autumn, you instantly drop dead.

I wish Star Wars Episodes 1-3 would be stricken from the records and never spoken of again.

Granted. Lucas attempts to make another prequel trilogy, and that one is even worse.

I wish my GF a didn't have to leave for the summer.

Granted! Your GF leaves for good!

I wish this thread would end so I would have the time to design a Taco golem.

Granted, but you can only find burritos.

I wish I wasn't hungry.
Pinky! Are you pondering what I'm pondering?

I think so, Brain, but didn't we give up ritual murder for Lent?

Granted! Someone performs The Aristocrats in front of you and you lose your appetite.

I wish the factions would come back to Sigil.

Granted. The players get into a stupid argument about their PCs' ability to float in quicksand wearing heavy armor, attempt to prove their point via demonstration, and thus drown their own PCs before they ever reach the crocodile encounter.

I wish my laundry was already done.

Granted, you now have a brand new disease that just evolved from the ebola virus.

I wish I had gotten more sleep last night.

Granted, you wake up in the year 2107. Everyone you knew is dead.

And Eberron is the only setting still supported. :P

I wish I had a $200 gift certificate to EB Games.

Granted. You now hold in your hand a $200 gift certificate to EB Games, which expired in August 2004.


I wish I had some tasty (and non-toxic) chips and dip to snack on.
