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.

And you do. You know more than you ever wanted about SoM - Science of mind that is. In fact, it is all that is ever on your mind. Unfortunately this helps you very little in terms of gaining entry into a business school program. Unwilling to relinquish your desire for material things, nor fully endeared by your new-found knowledge, you are unable to reach a sensible compromise and instead fritter most of your life away in a constant state of indecision.

I wished the hobo wandering the streets outside my apartment would stop singing the same bit of a song at all hours of the day and night.

He does stop singing the song, but then you get that bit of song stuck in your head and you can't stop sing it.

I wish that everyone on Sleuth was my friend.

My dear friend your wish is granted! We are so friendly here to you and everyone embraces you as a brother. You now feel cradled in the bosom of Sleuth. In fact you are so closely cradled that you begin to feel suffocated from all our affection and you begin to have panic attacks whenever you see us online, which is all the time.

I wish I knew how to make Phở.

Aug-16-2007 21:30

You do know how to make Phở. but none of us know what the heck it is so you are forced to try and educate us and we bother you incessently with PM's much like Henry Walker bothered everyone else with PM's and made a pest of himself.

I wish I knew what to wish for

Aug-16-2007 21:35

Oh, you'll know what to wish for. In fact...you'll know everything. So much, that we all become jealous and banish you from Sleuth forever.

I wish that I could write good.

Aug-18-2007 07:43

You write good but then you become an English teacher to 13 year olds and the stress of trying to make them write good sees you winding up in the school hall rocking back and forth muttering and writing over and over I iz an good ishlish teecha

Aug-18-2007 07:43

I wish I didn't keep forgetting to make a wish everytime I post on this post!

Aug-18-2007 07:44

You can now write the word 'good'. Unfortunately, it's the only word you can write.

I wish I could remember what day of the week it was.

Aug-18-2007 21:50

You remember what day of the week it is, however you remember it's the day to pay your rent, but since you didn't know what day it was...you forgot to go to work and so you have no money. The landlord kicks you out and you have to live in a cardboard box for the rest of your life.

I wish that I didn't have to go back to work.

Aug-19-2007 00:17

You dont have to go back to work but as a result you have no money, and are relegated to holding up a sign in sleuthville that says "Will solve cases for food"

I wish I knew wheter to got to Shanghai or New York
