I wish my birthday was on a different day of the year.

They say "life is pain," and everyone is cursed by a lot of it. It's a long, slow time in dying. Except you. You die in the next 20 seconds.

I wish you changed your name to enema nova.

Granted. Unfortunately, you start having problems with it, and the instruction book is in Klingon.

I wish Apolyton would forever cease to exist.

It does. The Artificial Intelligence running that portion of the Matrix gets bored. All users are deleted along with it.

I wish somebody sold a nice, inexpensive, reliable 500 watt power supply, that I could order, for my ill computer.

Granted. You get your power supply, and it works very well. Unfortunately, the hard drive goes bad.

I wish the Corrupt Wish thread would go on forever.

Granted. Now some of the greatest minds the world has to offer spend their entire lives posting here. The world descends into mutiny and financial ruin.

I wish I was still 10 years old.

You do. The maintenance costs drive you into bankruptcy. You sell it on ebay, and discover you just sold it the the PRC. You are arrested on espionage charges, and spend the rest of your life at in prison.

I wish Firaxis would release the source code for Alpha Centauri.

Granted. It turns out they wrote it in assembly. Good luck with it!

I wish the source code for Civilization II was released , and several (former) developers decide to help out the community and volunteer to help improve it in their spare time.

Its released, but their "improvements" include the suggestions that went to Firaxis for Civ3. Basically Civ2 becomes Civ3 and everyone is angry.

I wish nuclear power wasn't dangerous.

Granted. Nuclear power becomes such a great form of energy, since it is no longer dangerous, that a nuclear power plant is built in your backyard.

I wish my dog wouldn't try to French-kiss me. Ewww.

I wish that cottage cheese would stay fresh forever.

Granted. But now milk goes bad after ten minutes, and after an hour you find that the milk in your fridge has turned into cottage cheese.

I wish all poetry had to be written as a pi mnemonic (i.e. Poe E. Near a Raven... = 3.1415, see poetry thread...)

edit - crosspost...

ICBM: Now only mathameticians read poetry, and bored ones at that. It becomes a dead artform. Less than 1% of 1% bother to read it.

I wish that all cats were genuinely nice, affable creatures who were generally well-behaved (toally well-behaved is just impossible )

Granted. However the definition of "genuinely nice, affable... [and] well-behaved" is modified to fit the behavior of cats, meaning "loony, fur-brained beasts that claw your eyes out if you don't feed them in 15 seconds."

I wish my cat would quit chucking up hairballs.

You cat stops upchucking fur balls. Instead they get stuck on the way out, and you have to give it enemas (no joking, this has happened to someone I know - cat's DO NOT like enemas)

I wish Theban decided to become a male stripper, and make Ecthelion HAPPY.

Shawnmmcc is cured of his partial dsylexia - and you discover how really obnoxious he is.

I wish Theben was a genuinely nice, affable creature who was generally well-behaved (toally well-behaved is just impossible )

Granted. Theben becomes a genuinely nice, affable ... well-behaved creature, and this change in his behavior causes him to leave Apolyton forever. Normally, this would be a good thing, but it causes the corrupt wish thread to sink to page 100 of OT.

I wish Theben would change his name to Th*b*n, to allow for the spelling mistakes of people pretending to be n00bs.

Theben's name changes to Th*b*n and Ming thinks its such a good idea that no one is allowed to use vowels in their name anymore. *CBM, *cth*l**n and sh*wnmmcc are irritated.

I wish staplers never had to be refilled with staples in order to work.
