You are granted 3 wishes...

[MournSanity]

1. All the money I would ever need just magically appears when I need it (like that other person said).
2. The ability to bend time and space in order to do cool stuff like travel back in time or go to a far away galaxy.
3. Imortality.

Therefore, I can travel back in time, sustain myself with whatever money I need, and never die. And I could always revisit the past. Maybe start a whole new religion by going to the past and doing something with my space-time shifting abilities. Mwahahaha all hail Sir Hyper Sonic The Fifth!

1) A few billion dollars. That ought to hold me.
2) To have instant succes at whatever I do. What would be better than a life where you're always good at everything?
3) To know all of lifes secrets. Ie; Are there aliens? Who killed JFK? What's up with Stonehenge?, etc..

Or, more simply, I'd ask for the ability to have whatever I wanted simply by imagining it. Or speaking the request. Kind of like in the book Sphere. Except I'd put in some kind of failsafe where I'd have to think or say it a certain way. That way neither I, nor my subconsious, could conjur up something accidentally.

The billions of dollars are because you are a drug dealer (big time), and you are probably just about to be raided by the government.

Instant success? Wouldn't that make life pretty boring?

All of lifes secrets sounds interesting.

Even if my money had come from drugs, #2 keeps me safe. Part of being a successful drug dealer is not getting caught

Then everyone would hate you for being so good at everything.

they'd all die in car accidents.

I would wish to find, within the next 5 years, the perfect woman for me and marry her. She would have to think that I am the perfect man as well She would have to be around my age.

it would end in divorce.

My last wish would be to find, and get the perfect job. I would want a job that I love, and a job that pays excellent so I could buy my future wife everything she wants. I would want to also have job security within that job so that I could, if I choose, work there until I decide to retire.

job security isn't really an issue. you'll kill yourself after the divorce.

I have success at being loved by everyone I can't lose with that wish

bummer

 

[TheBoyBlunder]

1) Perfect health and long life.
2) No more worrying about money. If I want something, I buy it, and I always have enough money to pay for it.
3) Teleportation. Think of a place and I will be teleported to it.

 

[cloude27]

i think i would have to go with these wishes....

<a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.penny-arcade.com/view.php3?date=2004-04-10&res=l
">my wishes</a>

 

[rh71]

Yeah I'm sitting here thinking infinite money would be so good right now...

 

[Chaotic42]

#1-For the combined wealth of the CEOs of all Fortune 500 companies to be legally transfered to me, to avoid a glut of money in the market.

#2-To be immortal until the time that I choose to be able to die.

#3-To be incapable of getting a girl pregnant or getting any STD.

 

[sandmanwake]

I'd first wish to know everything--that way I'd know best then how to use the last two wishes.

I dunno about #3...at some point i would like some kids.

Otherwise,

one and 2 sound good.. i would keep my last wish until i needed it.

 

[DrNoobie]

#1 - I wish that all things bad that happened in the previous 3 days would be erased, and life would be like it used to be.

#2- I wish that I had more time for my girlfriend without losing my current job or giving up my position at school.

#3 - I wish that I had a genie that would allow me to cast one wish everyday with no tricks, consequences, or malintent attached.

 

[Cerb]

1. I wish for you to say the exact wish that I should wish for that will benefit me the most, out of all posssible wishes.
2. (that wish)
3. I wish the next person to find you will truly need you.

 

[Wuffsunie]

To those wishing immortality, what good is that without eternal youth? :Q The Greeks have a wicked legend about someone who asked for the former but not the latter and REALLY came to regret it.

DrNoobie's #3 is certainly clever Unless some of the more catastropic aspects about physics are true.

As for SirDude's #2: That fails because you can only play it on your armpits. While being able to play it on a violin was implied, a violin concerto is still nothing more than a piece of music.

seems like you would do a lot of accidental teleportation.

 

[Batti]

>>1. The Garden of Eden. 2. A good Woman. 3. A big fence around my fookin Apple Tree. <<

ROFL!

 

[Xionide]

RIAA TO DIE MUHUWAHAHAH!

Lots of teh monies

Everything to go perfectly

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

I only want one single wish.

 

[notfred]

1) The same thing the FFMCobalt wants for his wish.
2) That the next lottery ticket I buy (which coincidentally, would be the first) is the winning ticket.
3) I'd actually be pretty happy with the first two... let's just say... that scientists discover a way to travel, safely, faster than light in the next 5 years.

1. I want to know how and why the universe was created, and if it was by who. Let's say I would want nearly infinite knowledge.
2. I would wish for perfect health for my entire family and anyone I choose for the rest of my life!
3. I would wish for a large box that will create anything I want from thin air just by saying the phrase: "oh great box of greatness, make me -insert item name- now please kthx". This box can create anything.

You'd go insane from knowing everyting. There is no way the human brain could hold that much data.


#1. I'd wish to be a trvial psychic. I don't want to know things which would be disturbing to me or would get me in trouble.

So I'd be able to guess the color of girl's panties at parties!

#2. good health for myself and my family for the rest of our natural lives.

#3. To have a strong and long lineage and for them to be good, sucessful, content people.

 

[selene]

1. Super Sayian 5
2. Peace in the world
3. Good health for family

 

[Red Dawn]

I wish they all could be California Girls

I wish that those who start wars would have to fight them themselves.

I wish I knew back then what I know now

We all know the story. You get 3 wishes and you aren't specific enough or you wish for the wrong thing and everything blows up in your face. You end up using your last wishes to undo the damage caused.

Keeping that in mind, if you were granted 3 wishes. Anything in the world (short of more wishes), what would you wish for?

To make this more interesting, other people can critique your wishes and point out the flaws, or problems that your wish could cause. So by the end of this thread, if you are ever granted 3 wishes, you will know exactly what to wish for.





If I were granted 3 wishes...

1. I would wish for myself and my family members (present and future) to have incredible health and never have to suffer health-wise. No diseases, no cancers, no viruses, etc...

1. I would wish to find, within the next 5 years, the perfect woman for me and marry her. She would have to think that I am the perfect man as well She would have to be around my age.

1. My last wish would be to find, and get the perfect job. I would want a job that I love, and a job that pays excellent so I could buy my future wife everything she wants. I would want to also have job security within that job so that I could, if I choose, work there until I decide to retire.

Those would be my wishes. Pretty selfish, but at least I'm not destroying the world or anything.

hmmm the one with your family not having any diseases, viruses... the only way that is possible is if they are gone... to other side...
rethink that one.
