Greetings everyone! I'm sure many of you are familiar with this gem of a game, but for those who aren't...here's how it goes:
The first person to post (me in this case) will post a wish. The next poster will grant that wish...but in a corrupted/twisted way, for example:
I wish for world peace.
Granted. Everyone on the planet is dead, and the world is now at peace.
I wish for a million bucks.
Granted. Your house is trampled by a million bucks as the result of a stampede.
I wish I could find true love
Sound simple? Let's start!
I wish I had a new computer.
-
Granted, the new computer is so smart it steals your identity and leaves you penniless
I wish I had an ice-cold Nuka Cola.
-
Done, I hand you a can of Nuka Cola cooled to the freezing point of hydrogen, -259 degrees celsius. It flash freezes the skin of your hand before exploding with the thermal stress of being exposed to the much warmer air and the warmth of your body. You scream as pieces of aluminum pierce your body, and you fervently wish to never be granted another wish.
I wish for a bottle that is filled with any liquid I specify by writing on it with a dry erase marker. The filling is to occur after I put it in the refrigerator and close the door.

That.... that was rather dark.
Anyway, I give the bottle to you at high speed, aiming for your head. The mess will take a while to clean up.
I wish I had another wish.

Well, you wished for Nuka Cola earlier, so more violently exploding Nuka Cola for you!
I wish I had a nicer car.

Hey, I was going for dark. I'm an evil genie.. >.>
Your wish is granted! Your current car receives a paint job that is noticeably better than the one you had before.
I wish for an amazing kitchen with all the fixin's
-
Granted, but the kitchen is in North Korea. I hope you enjoy it. :]
I wish I could sword fight.
-

I wish I could sword fight.
Granted, but now you can do nothing but sword fight. Even if you don't have a sword. :)
I wish to live forever.

I wish to live forever.
This is an easy one! You live forever but continue to age, growing old and wrinkly beyond recognition as your bones slowly dissolve, but your body simply.. refuses to die.. Maybe someday you can wish for death.
I wish for a pet dragon that will be nice to me and I can fly around on!
-
Granted, but one day while teaching your pet dragon tricks, it accidentally stomps on you with its foot and kills you instantly.
I wish I could find my flash drive.
-

I wish I could find my flash drive.
Easy :) , granted, you find it but it has been broken beyond repair and you will never be able to use it again.
I wish I knew more languages.
-
Granted. You know every language, even those spoken by animals, and even plants, as you discover. You're seen speaking to animals and plants, and you're quickly locked away because people think you've gone insane.
I wish roses didn't have thorns.
-

I wish roses didn't have thorns.
Roses stop having thorns, everyone rejoices at the beautiful and thornless roses that one can hold in their hands without fear! But now grass has thorns, conservation of energy and all that.
I wish that I could organize my life better!
-
Granted. You have maximised your productivity, only to find yourself finding no enjoyment in life.
I wish I were smarter.
-
Granted, your so smart that you immediately realize that no question will ever interest you and that your life will be a long hunt for meaning that will never come. Yikes.
I wish I knew who would win the next world cup.
-
You learn that the team from Zimbabwe is destined to win the next WORLD CUP!!! Too bad it's the Quidditch world cup, muggle.
I wish I was shorter.
-
Granted! You are now really short! In fact, so short! Oh, I think I can see you down there... just. Perhaps you can travel in my pocket... oh well, at least you can walk over the keys when typing on the Wintreath forums! :P
I wish I had wings.
-
Granted. But they're held together with glue and when you get too close to the sun the glue melts and you die.
I wish for Fish.
-
You get three fish upon your dish! However, they are all great white sharks and still quite alive. While mostly concerned with the fact that they can no longer breath due to the lack of water, their thrashing and biting and mad rage is enough to make quite a mess of your kitchen. Their rotting corpses are extremely hard to explain to the people you get to help clean it up.
Also your magic wishing dish is broken.
I wish for world domination!
-
Granted, but the human population has already left to colonise the galaxy.
I wish the Roman Empire still existed.
-
Granted, they decide to crucify you for fun and frivolity.
I wish I had a piano.
-
A piano falls on you. It is yours.
I wish I had a superpower! That I could use to travel wherever I wish, just by thinking about the place!
-
Granted. You thought of being on the Sun and experienced self-immolation.
I wish that plants were sentient.
-
Granted. The plants realize things you've done to others of their kind in the past and exact their revenge upon you, as well as the rest of the human race. Plants now rule the world, and humans and animals are extinct.
I wish I could visit Italy.
-
Several years from now, on a layover flight to Greece, you land in Italy and get a shot glass with a picture of Italy on it. It's the last time you visit Italy, as your plane crashes on the way to Greece.
I wish I could maintain focus when working!
-
Granted! In fact, you maintain so much focus that you can't focus on anything else, and spend the rest of your life working and working and working and working and...
I wish I could have a glass of water.
-
Granted, you COULD have a glass of water, if you would get up and go get one.
I wish for the perfect wish!
-
Granted, but the price of getting that perfect wish is being transfigured into a mouse, and are banished to a mouse hole. Two years later you get caught in a trap while getting cheese and are eaten by a cat.
I wish that I owned a Death Star.
-
Granted, you appear on a Desth Star and in full command of all its personnel and abilities. Mere moments later it is destroyed by rebels and you along with it.
I wish for free pizza!
-
Granted. However, the pizza is contaminated and by eating it, you acquire food poisoning.
I wish that time would slow down.
-
Granted, unfortunately, all time slows down and you are stuck in slow-mo for the rest of your life.
I wish i had a house elf
-
Granted. You have a house elf.
But one day, when you accidentally hand it your socks while you put your pants on, you forget that by giving it clothes, you're setting it free. You no longer have a house elf.
I wish I had a wand and that I couldn't cause any sort of destruction/violent act with it, and its only uses were to heal the sick/injured when it touches them...without the toll being something that takes away from my own life force or giving me their affliction. :P
-
Granted! It does exactly what you want, and you proceed to go around healing and curing the sick and injured. Word spreads, and people start seeking you out. Soon you have waiting lists and you are earning a great living from this. But there are a lot of health professionals losing out because of your curing prowess, and the health industry is tanking, and the government is forced to take action. You soon find yourself on death row and your wand taken in to be used by the military. Shame.
I wish I had the ability to teleport.
-
Granted! But after teleporting to Tokyo, Dubai, and Moscow, you accidentally teleport into the sun and are incinerated before you know what happened.
I wish for the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything.
-
Granted! You were told about the ultimate question but unfortunately, due to short-term memory loss, you have completely forgotten about it.
I wish for the power to remember everything that I have ever experienced or encountered in my life.
-

I wish for the power to remember everything that I have ever experienced or encountered in my life.
Granted, you remember all the horrible memories you were repressing and the pain causes you to enter a deep depression.
I wish I knew what question 42 is the answer to.
-

Well done. I was trying to make it as loophole free as possible. :P
Granted: You now know. However, it's not the question you were hoping for, so you find yourself on the ledge, realizing that everything at that point is meaningless. You jump. You don't survive the fall.
I wish the world was black and white.
-
Granted, but everything is black. Pitch black. Except for dog shit left on the sidewalks but owners too bored to pick it up, which is blindingly white. Upon seeing an instance of this you go blind. And then. Everything is black. Pitch black.
I wish I would always get to everything I planned exactly on time...

Granted, its the time I chose and I chose never >:D
I wish my priest was less boring
-
Granted. You discover your priest is secretly a warrior monk from Tibet, but as you have discovered him, he can no longer pretend to be a priest as his disguise. He relocates to a location unknown to you and is replaced by a priest more boring than the first seemed to be.
I wish I was omnipotent.
-
Congratulations, you become omnipotent! You can do literally anything, as you have all power! Too bad your brain can't handle all the new abilities it has. You quickly go insane as random synapse firings cause inexplicable changes to your environment, quickly culminating in the destruction of the entire universe! You're gonna have to start over.
I wish for 20/20 vision!
-
Granted, your vision becomes perfect! Unfortunately you get in a bicycle accident two days later and you fly into rose bushes, which blinds you.
I wish I was Q from Star Trek.

Seems like we've dropped this for a few days. Still, I might be able to scrounge a little bit of fading pixie dust to... yes, I think so...
*Flash* Granted! You have the powers of the Q! Unfortunately, the Q Continuum seems to dislike your sudden appearance into their midst, disrupting the same dusty road they always travel down, and you are imprisoned by them in a nearby galaxy strung to the inside of a quantum flux and your powers stripped. Damn.
I wish I had the strength of ten thousand men, all with abs and wearing nothing but shorts.
-
Granted!
You now have 10 thousand men with abs and shorts lined up to lend you their strength. Unfortunately, they realize that you're not the person directing the Mr. Universe competition, and so they leave before deciding to use their pooled strength to destroy your house for deceiving them.
I wish today was Friday.
-
Granted, today is Friday, everyday, which means you have to work forever and ever and ever.
I wish for a loophole free way to wish for a wish.
-
Granted! You receive your wish for a loophole-free wish, but unfortunately that used up your wish and your life continues with exceedingly bad luck.
I wish for the Millennium Falcon.
-
Granted, you get the Millennium Falcon! Unfortunately, Emmet stole the hyperdrive and you get eaten by a giant space worm.
I wish Forever had not been canceled.
