This is a very simple and fun game. The first person makes a wish, and each following person finds some way to corrupt the wish and then makes a new wish. For example:

Person 1. I wish I had a dog

Person 2. You have a dog, but it dies the day after you get it

I wish I had a muffin

Person 3: You get a muffin, but you drop it and have to throw it away.

And so on.

Your firt wish to corrupt is this:

I wish I had a new car.

You see the world 20/20, but have to poke out one eye when you realize how ugly it all is. Now everyone calls you Ravenpatch.

I wish "that lady" had been more honest about the moustache....

She was more honest about the moustache, it was the hairy back, the baseball bat and the twins that she lied about.

I wish i live in a giant castle atop a hill so i could look down at all the little people

You are Gulliver living in a castle looking down at the Lilliputans, but there is a giant living in a much bigger castle atop a much bigger hill and looks down at you.

I wish I could go on a cruise.

Sep-25-2006 14:23

You decide to take a Transatlantic cruise, excited at the hype surrounding the ship's maiden voyage. Unfortunately, it's 1908.

Say hi to Leonardo DiCaprio's frozen corpse for me when you hit bottom.


I wish all my "busywork" for my job would just do it self.

Sep-25-2006 14:39

All your work does do itself, so you get the sack.

I wish I could afford to pay for university.

Sep-25-2006 16:20

You make it to university but are utterly disappointed in the knowledge they're teaching you there.


I wish it we could just skip the upcoming autumn & winter with them dark gloomy days.

Sep-25-2006 18:11

It's now summer, there's a heatwave, there's a global shortage of ice-cream and the air conditioning's broken.

(pedant's corner: 1912 not 1908?. Sorry. Can't help it.)

I wish I could freeze time while I snooze.

I wish I was married to Anthony Hopkins so I could lay in bed at night and listen to him read Shakespeare Sonnetts to me.

Sep-26-2006 01:12

Oops - forgot a main ingredient:

Times feezes while you snooze, but only for you - the rest of the world moves on.

I wish I was married to Anthony Hopkins so I could lay in bed at night and listen to him read Shakespeare Sonnetts to me.

BAM! Sir Anthony= your squishy hubby but he sleeps in theHannibal Lecter mask and murmers, "...with a nice chianti f,f,f,f,f" when he gets restless.

I wish clowns were a bit less scary.
