Corrupted Wishes

Granted. but she'll be incredibly annoying during her stay. (Annoying, Louisa? YOU?!)

You forgot to leave a wish, Lilli!

I wish my work day was over already.

Granted, but you will come home to a dreadful mess.

I wish - oh - I wish I was better at my piano lessons.

Granted, but you will forget how to walk.

I wish there was less traffic when I drive home from work.

Pffft - walking is overrated

Granted, but it will because everyone ran out of gas.

I wish people didn't screw up 2 month old, carefully laid up birthday plans .... (just happened to me )

Ah, Lilli, I'm sorry to hear that (and I just posted that I hope you have fun at your party in the "banish" thread . Seriously, I hate to hear that. For what it's worth, when your birthday does come, I'll look in what I hope is the direction of Taiwan and, out loud, exclaim "Happy Birthday, Lilli!")

For now, I suppose I have to answer in keeping with the spirit of this game...

Granted, but you will find out that your birth certificate is wrong, and that you're actually turning 15 instead of 16.

I wish I could make connections with some old friends again.

Granted, But your friends are going to hate you and won't recognize you anymore..


I wish I could meet the kind Peter Facinelli

Granted, but it will be in a alternate universe and he will be cruel and unfriendly.

You didn't leave a wish, Lilli!

Anyway, I wish my lawn would mow itself.

Aw, crap, not again!

Granted, but it will be because your lawnmower is full of freaky AI and will then proceed to try to mow everything else.

I wish I just had a windfall of incredible books.

Granted, but it will be a literal windfall, and you will be buried under tons of classic literature.

I wish all my pending issues at work will be resolved when I go back on Monday.

Granted, but you will stuck in a traffic jam related to the one in Beijing. http://articles.latimes.com/2010/aug/25/world/la-fg-china-traffic-20100825

I wish I could get good grades in my upcoming exams.

Granted, but it will be because you have to sleep with the scary old examiner.





I wish I just got a brain boost. Like in Forbidden Planet.

Granted, but the brain boost would make you forget all the "useless" trivia you love to remember.

I wish my stomach would not feel crummy every time I eat something, like it seems to be doing lately.

Cruel, Paul, very cruel. I looove trivia!

Granted, but it will because you're only eating bland, yucky food.

I wish that I could say 'no' easier. I'm such a pushover.

Granted, but as soon as you are offered a fantastic, high-paying job you will say "No!"

I wish the research for the next story I am writing was already done.

Granted, but you will have writer's block.

I wish that I was done this homework assignment already. (yes, procrastinating)

Granted, but then the power will go out, and you will have no computer or light to read by.

I wish I could resist temptation better!

Granted, but then life would be boring.

I wish I could go to Europe tomorrow instead of in 1.5 years.

You're going to Europe in a year and a half? Nice! Which countries?

Anyway, granted, but the weather in every country you go to will be lousy.

I wish I didn't have to get a new downstairs toilet (the tank sprung a leak ).

Oh my God! I've been planning this trip for forever. I have a little money saved for it that I haven't touched even when I almost didn't have enough money to eat a few months ago. $4,000. I'm finished with undergrad and before I start grad school I decided to spend 3 months traveling around Europe. I thought that plan was going to be put on hold with everything that was going on recently. But now that I don't have to worry about taking care of anyone but myself, I can realize my dream.

No! No lousy weather! pure evil.

Granted, but then your garbage disposal will go on the fritz. or if you don't have one... umm.. your toaster will burn all your bread.

I wish....I could meet you guys for real.

Granted, but we will all be psychos in real life. Heh - didn't even need to invent that. I'm one already.

I wish I could twirl. Don't ask.

Aw, c'mon, now I want to ask!

Granted, but you would never be able to walk straight again.

I wish we weren't getting a snow storm on Sunday night like they're predicting.

Granted, but it will still snow a LOT.


I wish I could stop wearing these bloody facial masks.

Granted, but you will never be able to cover your face ever again for the rest of your life.

I wish I didn't have to take 4 final exams at the end of every semester!
