Granted. You find yourself able to fall any height, and land safely. You also develop passionate cravings for tinned fish, cream and catnip. You see a rat dashing from a storm drain, and chase it instinctively. A car hits you. The coroner is fascinated by your slit pupils, and puts your eyes in a jar as a marvel.

I wish that everybody in the world had access to clean water, and electricity, from sustainable and environmentally sensible sources.

Granted. The entire human population simultaneously moves to Iceland. It sinks.

I wish my girlfriend would be able to move down to Georgia with me.

Your girlfriend moves down to Georgia with you. She is wonderful, and the two of you are very happy, until she starts listening to the radio, and gets suddenly converted to fundamentalist christianity. She starts to change from the woman you love into a strident, shrill, judgemental freak, who insists that you marry her, and gives you no rest. Any attempt to talk sense into her is met with stony silence, and her fundie friends glare at you as if you were some sort of pervert. Finally, she makes a bonfire of all your gaming gear while you are at work.

I wish that every country in the world would legalise marijuana, LSD, prostitution, abortion, free speech and the right to assembly.

Granted!

The United Nations strips the power from every national government and then legalizes everything. Unfortunately that includes firearms, crack, heroin, and nuclear weapons. The world dies in a ball of fire two days later.

I wish for a harem of intelligent, attractive women to distract me from my studies.

Congrats! You're a eunuch with severe attention-deficit syndrome.

I wish, through perfectly legal and ethical means, that I had the financial means to afford my medication and needed surgery.

Granted. You slip on a wet floor one day, and get a large settelment out-of-court because a janitor didn't put a 'Wet Floor" sign up. You get the money needed for your medications and surgery, but you later learn the janitor had 7 kids and was fired because he forgot to the sign up. He has yet to find a new job.

I wish to be able to breath underwater while retaining the ability to breath air, and no one cares that I can do so.

Morally I guess that works, but I meant that it would be something I was ethically ok with. Although by this point, I'd probably think "my ethics be damned." That's awful for him and his family, but it's also a lot less disturbing than what I had thought up. Still, I was raised RC, so I'll shortly be feeling guilty for hypothetically ruining the janitor's life. :)

Poof! You're now a commercial diver with diving gear, rebreather, and a full tank of air. While at maximum depth, you return to your diving bell to silence. Pirates have captured your surface supply ship. Once they've killed off the original crew, they cut your diving bell loose. At this point, you're the only one left that's concerned with how you breathe.

Now, now. You got the money in a perfectly legal and ethical way. You only learned what happened to the janitor later, and in no way did what happened to him stop the way you got your money from being perfectly legal and ethical.

Touche. I should have specified my ethics, not what the wishgranter considers ethical nor society considers moral.

And I forgot to make a wish (greedy aren't I?)... I wish the Jacks and Poodles would just learn to love one another and to give peace a chance.


Ambrosia Slaad wrote:

Poof. A Jack and a Poodle are forced to live with eachother in a one bedroom, one bath, apartment. Soon hate gives way to neutrality, which then gives way to love. A Poodle and Jack version of Romeo & Juliet ensues, with a very different ending. Your wish(and the Poodle) gives birth to a new type of Alias: The Poodle Jack. The Poodles and the Jacks make amends and give peace a chance.

Afterpost: Ew, just ew. Also, if there already is a Poodle Jack, the above wish is what caused it.

I wish I could fly.

You can. :p Unfortunately, it remains in effect when you sleep, unlike normal sleep paralysis. You find yourself waking up in very strange locations, up until the day when you fly into a jetliner engine in your sleep.

All tourists suddenly become locals. They no longer strut around thinking they own the place. The only problem is that now they stay all year round, so that the entire year your town is clogged with their cars, dogs and whiny kids.

Granted! However, because snadwiches don't exist, creating one has torn a gaping hole in reality that will swallow us all.

I wish all the webcomics I read updated more often.

Alright. All your favorite webcomics' posting frequency increases exponentially. Within a week they begin to update a dozen times per secind, and they keep going faster. Your head explodes from the sheer effort it takes to read them all.

You basement did not flood last Saturday. Instead, a complex twist in spacetime tore open and began spitting out scuttling Things From Beyond. Now your entire house is a non-Euclidean hive of loathsome and blasphemous entities from beyond time and space, and you have been transformed into their flesh-puppet to be their face in the world, gathering their supplies as needed for them to overrun the whole of the Earth.

I wish I lived someplace more pleasant than the desert.

Granted. You now live in the ocean. Regretting that in the desert you never learned to swim, you drown.

Eh, it's not really all it's cracked up to be. Oh, it has great security, but the pay's horrible. Besides, do you really want your office to be shaped like a concentric circle?

You do, but, unfortunately, your powers are so great that they can't focus on just 4E D&D. If you tried to destroy it, you would destroy anything that used 4E, all D&D editions, all people who have played D&D, everyone who has played a fantasy-RPG, anyone who has read fantasy books, anyone who knows anyone who has anything to do with D&D, all movie producers who have relied on D&D roleplaying, all the planets that house creatures who know anything about fantasy, all of the D&D multiverses, all of the multiverses with multiversal travelers from D&D-having multiverses, the entire universe, and the entire supermultiverse.

Granted. Early fish-like life possessing potential chromosomes to evolve into four limb animals are wiped out (made extinct) by jellyfish -- all those potential dogs and horses are selected out of existence -- four limbed mammals never evolve. Eons later, 60-foot long and 4-foot high millipedes sit at the apex of the food chain.

You can. Unfortunately, your social skills disappear completely and you're stuck playing by yourself until you die from diabetes.

That... Is true. I cannot swim. I sink - sort of. Neutral buoyancy is about three feet under the surface...

Granted...Unfortunately, a wealthy fan of the movie buys up every ticket for every showing. This results in thousands of angry fans rioting through the streets when they are unable to get tickets. Hundreds are injured and property damage runs into the millions of dollars. Eventually, martial law is declared, followed by the show being shut down as a public hazard.

I wish that no other Poodle Jack hybrids will ever be created, neither by natural {shudders} nor artificial means.
