This is a game where someone will make a wish and then the next person to post will grant their wish, but corrupt it in some way.

Example:

Me:I wish for a cookie!

NextPoster:Wish granted, but the cookie is poisonous and results in food poisoning and later death muahahahahah!

Ok now that you got the I will go first.

I wish for an iMac and tickets to Macworld!

You get the camera, immediately followed by a visit from the local police to question you about what someone saw you taking pictures of at the local park near the elementary school, with the camera. The camera reveals some highly questionable pictures. You spend the rest of your life in prison.

I wish the earth would explode.

The world explodes but quickly pieces itself back together?

I wish for food.

Unfortunately the food is delivered by a drunk driver that doesn't stop in your driveway, but runs his truck right thru you house killing your pet gerbil, Harry.

I wish I was rich.

You get all the money, you are now rich. However you develop an unhealthy drug habit and also spend a lot of money on your new friends and their habits.
You marry a bit of gold digging trailer trash, who soon divorces you and takes most of your money.

Meanwhile one of those new friends of yours is busted for drugs and squeals on you. You are raided by the police and are now in jail.

I want a Volkswagen Camper Van

You go camping in your Volkswagen Camper Van and get eaten by a huge grizzly Bear.

Wish granted, but this just happens to be the week the good 'ol Steve gets kidnapped by angry widows Fanboys and is tortured by having to do Bill Gate's Excel spreadsheets and use window movie makers to make movies of bill and his wife going at it... he later kills himself! :D

Granted. But some 11yr old kills you with the elite sword and proceeds to call you all kinds of names that 11yr olds shouldn't know.

I wish I could pay off my credit cards.

Granted, you get what you wanted.

The universe has just popped out of existence, now there is only the void (well not even that)

You get your wish. Five minutes later a Shiite Muslim accidentally shoots a Sunni Muslim during target practice and the middle east descends into chaos.

I would like a PS3.

You get the PS3, but a faulty power supply catches fire. The fire is put out, but not before destroying your entertainment system.

I wish I could retire.

Wish granted, but soon after you retire you realize that someone "loaned" your retirement savings to "Nigerian Royalty" because they thought they would be able to get a share of his "inheritance" when he came to the U.S.

I wish I didn't have to work tomorrow.

You get your G4 CPU upgrade, but your video card dies, leaving you with a black screen.

I want to never go out to sea again.

PS3 doesn't have a powersupply that would catch fire :p

Ok, you'll never go to sea again. However, you shall be confined to your home until you die and possibly later.


I want my authoritaw to be respected.
