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 master the art of bladder control, but your mastry is so good, you now find it impossible to relieve yourself. You bladder continues to fill for the rest of your life causing excruciating pain, until you die a horrible death as your bladder explodes, taking a whole city block out with the force of the explosion.

I wish I could travel back in time.

Arrrrr you survey seadog, you wish to travel back in time do ye? Think ye might find me treasurrree?
Aye, ye travel back into and become my cabana bo arrrrr cabinboy.

I wish I was actually speaking like a pirate. Arrrrr.

Sep-19-2007 15:44

You arrrrr speaking like a pirate. What's more, Fizzlewigs wish sends you back in time as well. Now you speak so authentically that they actually mistake you for a real pirate.

Unfortunately, they executed pirates back in the old days....

I wish for world-domination. I would be a kind and just ruler.

Yarr you can have yer world domination. Yer King of the Pirater Nation. Yarrrrr. Avast ye yer majesty would yer like yer wooden leg polished. Yer hook seems a bit rusty, I think ye been wearing it in the shower again haven't ye. Yarrrr, and it be past it's warranty date too. YARRRR!

I wish I had a pirates costume. Yarrrr.

Sep-19-2007 18:04

You get a pirate costume, it's definitely authentic looking, so authentic that a group of ninjas attack you at once and all you have to defend yourself with is a polished wooden leg and rusty hook. Good luck my friend!

I wish I was a ninja!

Sep-19-2007 20:06

Yarrr, yer a ninja. Too bad yer a seagoing ninja! An' yer swabbin' the deck! Because yer a ninja on a pirate ship! Arrrrrrr matey, ye be a fine swabbie even if'n ye be a scurvy dog. Yarrr!

I wish the pirate craze would die, already. Yo ho ho and a Long Island Iced Tea.

Sep-20-2007 21:42

Yarrr.....Arrrr....uulllkkk. The pirate craze is dead, unfortunately it has been replaced by the cowboy craze. Yeehaw. Howdy pardner. You are walking down the street when a man in black shoots you dead with his six shooter, just because he can.

I wish I could email myself across the internet.

Sep-21-2007 11:01

You spread yourself across the internet in the manner of an email worm. Very soon afterwards, Norton & MacAfee are responding with new virus definition downloads. Microsoft is issuing a new software patch for XP & Vista. The 'Fizzlewig' worm phenomenon, as devastating as it was, it quite short-lived as you're now deleted to near extinction from servers across the globe. Yet it doesn't end there: the FBI, CIA, Interpol, and other worldwide anti-cyberterror units are on your tail, looking for the person who wreaked all this havoc. You even have Sleuthers after you, annoyed to have woken up one morning to find their Sleuth Mail inboxes flooded with 'Fizzlewigs'.

I wish I understood the game cricket. What sort of a sport has a single match lasting a week or a month or as long as necessary to determine the winner? And what sort of a sport uses a statistical model to determine the outcome if the match gets rained-out?

The lovely and talented Lady Emerald Devon does her very best to explain cricket to you, here...

...however, enraged that you don't understand her explanation, she totally loses it and shows up at your door with a menacing gleam in her eye and a blood-stained cricket bat in her fist.

I wish I had a pet cricket.

Sep-21-2007 16:16

You do have a pet cricket, well, you did.
I took it and used it for bait. Caught a nice one too, thanks crunchpatty.


I wish I could cook this fish I caught with crunchpatty's cricket.
