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 do get paid to play Sleuth and earn a million dollars - but then the American economic system fails, America is overtaken by a small european nation and our currency becomes useless.

I wish I had something to do with this old pair of T. R. Wexler's glasses that I stole from her and now serve no purpose.

Oct-1-2006 12:32

Yes, alas, you do. You give them to Ben, who transforms them into Rasputin's eggs!
I wish I had enough exp to start a Villan Hunt

You are the most experienced detective in Sleuthville and you chase your villain all around the world, but when you finally find his hideout he escapes to Cairo where you can't pursue him because of the blockade and the prince forbids you to return to Shangri-La forever.

I wish I could collect a book.

Oct-2-2006 00:26

you can, but it's Where's Waldo... you can't enter Cairo until you find him, and he's VERY well-hidden. Oh, and you go blind from looking.


I wish I had a 3rd hand so I could feed my son and type quickly at the same time... :)

Oct-2-2006 03:02

Your wish is granted - you have three hands. However, you forgot include an arm - so the hand just protrudes from one of your wrists and doesn't really do you much good. Now you just look extremely odd. Must be specific with your wishes, dear boy.

I wish I could just put my clothes in the washing machine, head off to the Tricky Mister, and come back home to find them all tucked nicely away in their proper places.

Oct-2-2006 05:06

your clothes are put away very neatly! oh my :) unfortunately they shrunk to the size that they are a proper fit now for 12-year old kids. You desperately excercise to fit in again but your frequent visits to The Tricky Mister make that a mission impossible...

I wish I were God

Oct-2-2006 05:21

All men do!

Horror of Horrors! BadAss is now God of all creation. Unfortunately for him, at that very moment an obscure little atom somewhere in the vast universe begins to morph causing an atomic tsunami wave that unglues the fabric of the universe and all of creation is irretrievably destroyed.

I wish I had picked a cooler name for my detective. :(

you did!!!!! it's BadAss Sindy now :-)


I wish all hippos could fly

Oct-2-2006 17:05

Hippos do fly - they fly right up your nose causing extreme sinus complications necessitating emergency surgery wherein the surgeon mistakenly removes part of your brain, leaving you with the misimpression that you are a famous Western movie star with an attitude.

I wish I lived in the age of the Jetson's where all you have to do in the morning is stand on a conveyor belt while robotic arms get you ready for the day.

Oct-2-2006 17:49

You lived in the Jetson's age but then the robotic arms accidentally beat you up every morning instead.

I wish I had a prince.
