Granted, a delivery truck carrying speaker magents accidentally crashes into your house, managing to cause a collapse of the house which crushes your cds, and the magnets erase all your magnetic media. Now you have 0 mp3s for which you need to add cover art. On the bright side, as wish corruption goes, you got off pretty lightly by only losing some personal property.

I wish I had a sleep schedule which was considered normal for the majority of sane humans of this era in my time zone and hemisphere.

edit: post collision! oh, noes!

So: granted. We all live in the Eighth. Sadly, the strange gravity which allows the Eighth to exist as such is incompatible with our laws of physics and implies the rest of their physical laws are pretty much whacko, too. Our bodies, our molecules, indeed our very atoms decohere rather suddenly. It's tragic that we didn't even exist long enough to hate you for wishing us into oblivion.

Granted. Everyone (save for you and me) now sleeps 2 minutes. Per year. Thus, your sleeping times are more sane.

I wish that the laws of physics were altered to allow us to live in the Eighth.

I'm tempted to reply to that, but one shouldn't reply to one's replier in this thread. So I'm not.

Granted. The laws of physics have been altered to allow you to live on the Eighth. Unfortunately, you're still on earth and thus explode into a fuzzy blob of quantum fuzz due to incompatibility.

I wish for a hug.

Bang! you're in the eighth, unfortunately you're now in a dungeon filled with giant roaches and other monsters, with no way to defend yourself.
I wish the drive from here to redding wasn't so long.

Granted, but now a Giant roach comes up to you (because you are in the eighth!) and eats you.
I wish I would think of a uncorruptable wish.

Granted. You have thought of an uncorruptable wish. Sadly, you only get to make one wish, and you just used it up, and can't make the uncorruptable one.

I wish that when true was false, false was true, but truthfully would be falsely false except when truly false (but not when falsely true) or truly true.

I wish I hadn't had to wake up at 7:45 this morning.

Granted! You would; however, you're trying so hard, too hard, to think of a clever wish to see the sheer simplicity of the solution, thus you never actually come up with the wish you seek. If only you hadn't tried so hard! Too late for that now, though. You spend the rest of your days on a wild goose chase while everything you cherish in your life crumbles to dust around you.

I wish I didn't have to make a wish, hoping despite myself for happiness even though I know beyond doubt that an evil genie will crush the wish into a horrible twisted shadow of its former self before granting it, forever dooming me and everyone else the wish touches to a lifetime in despair.

Granted! Unfortunately, you can only play well if your opponent makes a particular opening... which by a matter of sheer coincidence, they never do.

I wish upon a star.

Granted. They all consist of you, a roach, and the staircase. In each level save the last. That one has an evil eye instead.

I wish to be in the world of Zork.

Granted. But it's pitch black, so you're likely to be eaten by a grue. (Didn't see *that* coming, did ya? )

I wish there were clone potions in real life.

np: Gas - Track 6 (Gas)

Granted. They are used so much that an assasin kills everyone because there are aprox. 1000 of themselves and they can only control one at a time.

I wish that I was at the peak of my time.

Granted. You can easily support 16 pounds, and that's all. I'm going to wildly guess that your body weighs somewhere in the 80-500 pound range, so you collapse under your weight and suffocate.

I wish you had gotten my hint when I said, "I'm not replying to this because one should not reply to one's replier" because the point was that the game should be played by many people, not bounce back and forth to one person all day.

I wish I could live in space, and on the land, and in the water.

Granted. Unfortunately, the worlds are inhabited by little green men, and they have little nukes. Their arsenal destroys your face and much of your skull.

I wish I had more time.

I wish those $%*@! (no, not BBC) program planners hadn't dropped House MD off the TV schedule today to show, of all $%*@! things, soccer...
