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.

Italo Calvino comes back to life! Unfortunately he suffers a severe personality change and now writes bodice-rippers featuring winsome eighteenth century maidens and heroes with testosterone problems.

I wish I could take the rest of the day off.

Jul-11-2007 08:51

You do get the rest of the day off, but all your friends thought you were still working and forgot to invite you to a cool party that day. Your friends are having a great time, but you are stuck at home with nothing to do.

I wish my friend would call me.

Jul-11-2007 09:19

After months of not hearing from your friend, she finally calls you. Unfortunately, she has been sleeping with your man behind your back!! They are running away together and you will never see either on again.

I wish my dog would put his toys back in his toy box.

Jul-11-2007 09:36

(side note: there is a command called 'clean up' where a dog will clean up their own toys)

Your dog does put put his toys back in his toy box. And he also cleans the entire house. But when you want to play with him, he just lays down and growls at you if you apporch his toy box. He also bites you if you drop a crumb on his nice clean floor.

I wish I had a man so I could be mad about Lailani's corruption.

Of course you have a man, you must have forgotten. Ahh, that poor Ken doll. It doesn't matter anyway, as he's secretly been sneaking off to canoodle with Barbie - and after all you've done for him!

I wish I had a maid.

Jul-11-2007 20:31

You do have a maid! But she's the most horrible maid in the world. Instead of cleaning everything, she makes an even bigger mess and steals all your most treasured items!

I wish that I could talk to a cute guy without being shy.

Kapow! You're Chatty Cathy! And Johnny Dimples, starting quarterback of the football team, yet still so in touch with his feminine side that he bought front row seats for all his aunts to a live production of "Sex in the City: The Best Shoe-Related Outakes, is all ears. For you and you alone. Sadly, that's partly because in addition to those darling cheek-mines, he's got ears that would make Prince Charles replace the batteries in his cellphone with Viagra pellets and most of what he says back to you is some version of "yeah, but do you have a Q-tip?".

I wish mosquito bites weren't so itchy.

Jul-12-2007 02:46

Mosquito bites are no longer itchy. Just huge, pus-filled and pus-leaking boils that last for weeks.

I forgot to make a wish :) So here goes:

I wish that all violent conflicts and all wars ceased (as violent conflict and wars are NOT a necessary evil, only conflict and that doesn't have to hurt anyone) and that humans could resolve their conflicts through other ways utilising Galtung's Conflict Triangle and other Conflict Resolution Methods.

Jul-12-2007 10:10

Wow, that's a tough one...

Well, there are no more wars, and no more violent conflicts. The good news is I get to home and get on with life. The bad news is that soon after the cessation of all hostilities, the world gets taken over by aliens who use their mind control abilities to make us their slaves.

I wish I were an Oscar Meyer Weiner (that is what I'd truly like to be)
