*ZZZZZZAP!!* Your number is drawn. You are now hundreds of millions of dollars richer, and as you cross the street on your way home from claiming your fortune you're suddenly the victim of a hit & run, thereby paralyzing you from the neck down for the rest of your life. But that's okay, isn't it, because you never have to work again and your fortune will help pay for your medical bills.
I wish I lived alone so I could hire a handsome, hunky, and generously well endowed male masseur for the night.

*poink!* You live alone... in an extremely right-wing conservative town where you won't find a male masseur for miles and miles.
I wish I were a superhero.

It's so quite, Crickets are chirping from your neighbors apartment every so ofter. But then every so OTHER often, their noise levels are increased by 100 decibels that every piece of glass in your house shatters into small tiny bits and pieces. I wish I could leave work early today.

You get a time machine to go back in time to undo yesterday but instead you unravel the space time continuum and we all cease living. I wish for a cup of coffee

You get a very hot cup of coffee.... spilled on your lap while you are driving. I wish I had a nice big house, 1 cat, 5 million dollars, all the time in the world, and good health (no physical disabilities).

*Hu-zhaaa* Suddenly you think of the most perfect wish, a wish you know will create an uproar among the other forum members, but alas, it's no longer your turn to post, and before someone posts a new wish you can answer to, you've forgotten it..
I wish someone could create a post about which movies I should see this year..

*Kaching*
the web gives birth to the best post ever about which movies you should see this year. The catch??? The post is in Klingon I wish I can go in a time machine into the future and learn about our future. Probably in the process, seeing which stock will hit it big, so I can invest in it today.

But of course your wish is granted sire! You come back in time and invest heavily in that area, only to find that your investment events in the present changed the events of the future. The board loses majority holdings and folds, leaving you with empty paper. I wish I had diversified before the tech stock bubble burst. |

Pfwut! You've diversified now before the stock bubble burst. However, many other people also diversified, so the stock bubble didn't blow up so large and didn't burst. You make a nice profit, but not spectacular.
I wish I had the time and healthy body to do everything I want to do. |

Your Long lost unce dies leaving you a vast fortune and a book of magic. You cast the spell for a long life and a healthly body. After the smoke clears you Look in the mirror you see a healthly body of a teenage girl staring back. I wish someone would Kill the Thread.

*zzzzziiiinnnnnggg* your wish is granted
You get the bright idea to strap explosives to "the thread" and blow it to little pieces. I wish to be smarter

Flup! Your wish is granted and you are the smartest peron around now. Everybody asks you questions, the answers to which are so blindingly obvious to you that you get mad at them. Eventually everybody hates you. I wish I had a new job. |

Not like them!

You've been hired as a security guard for the least-used building in the world. Your contract stipulates that you remain alert at all times, and to enforce this there's a security camera watching you so that your employer will know when you're doing anything at all. If you are doing anything (sleeping obviously included), you don't get paid. Your contract also says that you've got this job for the rest of your life (20 hours a day), and you are forbidden (legally) to get any other job as long as it is in effect.
I wish there were a comic store near here. |

You, sir, are cruel. But I'll get you back! I wave my little wand, and UCH!!! Now there is a comic store just 50 meters away from your place. Unfortunately, they only sell everything Bananaman.
Edit: oops, forgot the wish... I wish I could quit this crappy security job! It drives me nuts! |

*grakowshee* A cliff appears nearby. So you certainly can quit now...
But otherwise, you're still stuck with the job. I wish for the superpower to be able to give anyone I choose, temporarily, any superpowers which I think up and wish to give them. |

Chnoinklablung! You have your superpower. You use it to make me temporarily invincible. I jump in the cliff, and everyone thinks I'm dead. My employer replaces me with... you! Since you were so conveniently close when I killed myself.
I wish there was a way out of this canyon I suddenly find myself in. |
