The Corrupted Wish Game

The Corrupted Wish Game

A new forum game!

Since everyone has such enthusiasm for the "You're banned!" game, I thought I'd start us off another favorite forum game, the corrupted wish game.  Each poster starts by granting the wish of the poster before them, but then corrupting the result to be something not quite what they were seeking.  You then finish up by making a wish of your own.

For example:

Poster 1: I wish for a Space Pony!

Poster 2: Granted, but it has a wicked temper and taste for human flesh.

Poster 2: I wish for a new computer.

Poster 3: Granted, but you get it off e-bay and the FBI comes knocking at your door over some files the previous owner left on the hard drive.

These are weak examples, but should give everyone the general idea.

 

So, with no further ado, I wish for a Humanscale Freedom chair, red, with headrest and electrically-cooled beverage holder.

It does. It also files taxes, cooks your family's meals, makes you coffee in the morning. Eventually, everyone you love loves your computer science homework more. You become a hobo.

I wish I had Percival the Pocket Knight, who'd be loyal and come charging out of my pocket and kill all my enemies.

Percival the Pocket Knight comes to your aid and your life becomes a living paradise.  Then, one day, Percival charges out of your pocket to defend you against a traffic ticket.  The officer thinks you're flashing him with, er, Percival, and you're charged with assaulting an officer.  The judge belives your misbehavior is due to too many video games, your computer is off-limits as a condition of your probation and you can't play Elemental when it goes gold.

I wish my back didn't hurt.

It doesn't hurt...it's all in your mind.

I wish that in Sins 2 that we'll find out what is chasing the Vasari.

Granted. But you discover that they are actually rinning from a giant vacuum-breating Paris Hilton clone. (And isn't it Versari).

I wish I had been allowed to take calculus a few years early.

You did. You just suffered amnesia...

I wish I had a new car.

You do have a pink plastic toy car with a length of 1cm now instead of your old car.

I wish I knew the universal antidote for all diseases.

You know the universal antidote for all diseases. Problem is, you die of smallpox before you can actually make any of it.

I wish I didn't have swine flu.

Granted. You have the more dangerous normal seasonal flu now.

I wish I could stop time to have lots of free time whenever I want.

Granted, but you still age and in one of the instances that you pause time, you find you can't unpause it.

Nope, it's Vasari, as on page 2 of the training manual in the table of contents. Also here in the first paragraph: https://www.sinsofasolarempire.com/lore.aspx

 

I wish that Mars will be colonized during my lifetime.

Reply #37 Top

It is. By a nuclear-weapons-capable religious sect who sees it as their duty to create Armageddon at the earliest point possible.

I wish I had a Star Trek TNG boxed set.

Reply #38 Top

Granted, but you must by me the complete seasons before I give you one boxed set. Here, have season 1.

 

 

I wish that more people liked Stargate Universe, as I think it is fairly cool so far.

Reply #39 Top

Your wish is granted--I'm sure there are more people that like Stargate Universe.

I wish my copy of Windows 7 was already here.

Reply #40 Top

Granted. Your (buggy, non-working, DRM-filled) copy of Windows 7 is already here.

I wish I had had Rotolos pizza for dinner instead of undercooked chicken cornombleus.

Reply #41 Top

Granted. Your pizza just tasted like undercooked chicken cornombleus.

I wish the weekend was here already.

Reply #42 Top

The weekend is here. But you would have won a billion dollars on Friday.

I wish I could stay upright for more than a few minutes right now.
