This is a rather prolific Internet meme and a damn fun one.

Here's how it works.

You grant the wish of the person above you but grant it in such a way that it is more trouble then it's worth and you make your own wish.

Example

Person 1: I want a new gaming computer

Person 2: Wish granted, but it's the demented lovechild of HAL and SKYNET.

I wish I was genius

Person 3: Wish granted, but the knowledge drives you insane

Try to keep it funny

I wish for a new car.

Granted, but it is a new car from MI6, the wiring is all wrong, so when you pump the accelerator, it might just activate the driver-side ejector seat.....and this car has no slide-back roof.

I wish for....immortality.

You live forever, but you still age. And you don't want to know what a 1,000 man looks like.

I wish for a new guitar.

((Off-topic Flagg, sorry to interrupt the flow, but I do know what a 900 year old looks like if they had their capacity to resist aging removed. Observe:

Well?))

granted, but the strings are made of razor-sharp wire that shreds your fingers when you try to play it... and it doesn't stay in tune... and the strings are proprietary so you can't switch them out... :twisted:

I wish for a million dollars

Granted, but you lose everyone close to you in a train crash.

I wish for the ability to possess bodies and stretch my conscience into all the bodies that I possess.

Granted but in being able to ignore gravity you end up flying off into space... oh wait.. you can't breath vacuum

I wish I could read minds.

I wish I could fire fart.

Done. However, the cost of constantly replacing your pants leaves you homeless on the street begging for quarters or at least used pants that are minimally soiled.

I wish I could control time.

Wish granted but your inexpierence with time causes the universe to end

I wish that Games Workshop miniatures weren't so darn expensive.

Granted, but thousands of people lose their jobs due to the outsourcing...

I wish eternal suffering upon the wicked.

No problem. However, it is decided that you are among the wicked.

I wish that true talent and ability were recognized.
