Corrupt-a-Wish: Be careful what you wish for!

In this game, you grant somebody's wish, but with an unexpected twist.  Then you make your own wish.

Spoiler: How to play (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Example (click to show/hide)


Other important rules:

The goal: What it is and what it isn't
The point of the game is to be clever and creative.  There are no winners and losers in this game, there are only those awesome enough to win TEH 1NT3RN3TZ.
The goal isn't to make a "foolproof" wish that is impossible to corrupt.  Not only do such wishes have the potential to ruin the game, but they also tend to be quite bland, both in the wish itself and in how its corrupted.  Believe me, it's nothing we all haven't seen before.

Off-topic discussion is bad
Try not to start off-topic discussions.  Believe it or not, just like with every other forum game in existence, this game's number 1 critical weakness is non-game discussion.  It's especially tempting to start an off-topic discussion when you feel your wish wasn't really corrupted.  For instance, if you say "I wish it was 70 degrees outside" and somebody responds "Granted.  Your thermostat is now stuck at 70 degrees.  Kelvin, that is," you may be tempted to point out that your wish was for it to be 70 degrees outside (the astute might also be tempted to point out that there's no such thing as "degrees Kelvin").  But don't.
Unless... (read on)

Side discussion is okay
Let me add an exception to that rule.  Off-topic discussion is allowed as long as you keep the game going in every post.  If you must comment on what somebody said, make an effort to play the game, too.
As long as every post corrupts the above wish and makes a wish of its own, any discussion on the side is perfectly fine.

Don't forget to make a wish when you post!
This is the easiest mistake to make!
If you really want to corrupt somebody's wish but can't come up with a good wish of your own, then just think of an object you wish you had.

But some will still forget, anyways.
In the event that somebody corrupts a wish without posting a wish of their own, and they don't edit a wish into their post within an hour, you can assume they aren't going to, and then you can just make a wish of your own to get the game going again.


Now then, let's begin:


I wish Saira was free.

[mod]Rules update: This topic is sticky, so this post is sticky on evey page. If the previous poster forgot to post a wish, ignore the post. If you don't every post from the moment where it went wrong will be deleted upto the post where things went correct (if any)[/mod]

Granted. It was free a couple days ago in Sweden. Unfortunately, they hit upon a better marketing strategy and now it's more expensive than ever.

I wish for all the money in the world.
Lurk more.

Granted, but because nobody else has any money it looses all value to anybody but yourself.

I wish I could fly.

Granted.  You are now a mosquito.

I wish I was best friends with Mario Mario and Luigi Mario.

Granted, but they're raging and depressed alcoholics after realizing they committed a Turtle and Goomba Holocaust over the past years of their life. With no more turtles and goombas to kill, they were left with a dead-end job of being plumbers in the mushroom kingdom, which unfortunately has no bathrooms or sinks. They constantly need to borrow money from you.

I wish I could go back in time.

Granted. You go back exactly one second just to see yourself disappear.

I wish I had a huge death ray that I could use to enslave humanity.

Granted, but the death ray is attached to a shark. The shark won't let you get near it.

I wish I knew where Waldo (or Wally, if you live in the U.K.) was.
A God, a Messiah, an Angel, a King, a Prince, and an All Terrain Vehicle.

I wish for Christmas not to be secular.

Granted. The year is now 30 AD, back before Jesus' birthday turned into a big sales opportunity for business.  However, it is also before the invention of electricity and/or toilet paper.

I wish Windows 7 file search actually found what I was looking for once in a while. :/

Granted. But now your computer finds a virus, which activates it so that it deletes SYSTEM32.

I wish I could get another peanut from Purple Pineapple.

You sir, get your peanut which I stole from Purple Pineapple, but it is filled with a deadly poison!


I wish I had enough brainpower to take over Turkey (you know, the country).

You buy a plane ticket to go to Turkey. On the way to boarding your plane, you trip on an electrical cord and fall face first, biting your tongue so hard that it is rendered useless forever. You now talk with a funny sounding lisp, and no one can take you seriously. Your plan has failed.

I wish the school year was over already.

Granted, but everything that ISN'T school is now a misery.

I wish Misery (from Cave Story) didn't look like a robot ('cause she does).

Granted. But now she is impossible to beat if you don't have all the available items in the game that still allow you to

And even then her health bar takes 30 minutes to deplete.

I wish for awesmoe to be a real word.
