Corrupt a Wish

[Arwen_Daeneri31]

You now can do so but only with difficulty as you can play the clarinet with one hand and the Harp with the other, it doesn't quite sound the same.

I wish I owned an island.

[Courtenay]

You now own an island... a very, very small island that disappears at high tide.



I wish I could visit Narnia!

[Arwen_Daeneri31]

You can now visit Narnia, but only on weekends.

I wish I could visit Camelot.

[waggawerewolf27]

Yes, you might visit Camelot, having visited the Tintagel ruins. But the time machine you found there doesn't go back in history further than the reign of Athelstan, the first king of all England.

I wish newspapers would report good news for once.

[King_Erlian]

The newspapers report good news for once, but only once, and then it's back to the bad stuff again.

I wish I had superhuman strength.

[Courtenay]

You now have superhuman strength, but as you keep on inadvertently knocking down walls just by leaning on them, breaking chairs when you sit down, pulling doors off their hinges when you open them, snapping mature trees when you brush against them, etc., nobody likes to have you around.

I wish I had power over the weather.

[Arwen_Daeneri31]

You now have power over the weather, but it's only cold weather so now you've plunged the world into a winter wonderland; forever.

I wish I could go to Disney world for free.

[Courtenay]

You can go to Disneyworld for free, but only when it's closed.

I wish I could own a (friendly) dragon!

[King_Erlian]

You own a friendly dragon, but the amount you're spending on food for it has bankrupted you.

I wish I could travel back to 1871 and meet Gilbert and Sullivan.

[Courtenay]

The wish fairy is having a bit of trouble with her hearing today, so you've just been transported back to 1971 to meet Gilbert O'Sullivan.

I wish I could automatically understand every language in the world.

[waggawerewolf27]

Hurrah! You can understand every language in the world, but the moment you try to speak any of the languages to native speakers, they get grossly offended by your pronunciation.

I wish it would rain on Sunday, all day.

[King_Erlian]

It rains all day on Sunday, but only where I live in England.

I wish I could have a holographic projection of a car to place outside my house in order to stop other people from parking there.

[Arwen_Daeneri31]

You now have a holographic projection of a car which fools people from a distance, but then it glitches during windy or rainy weather which people begin to notice and park there again.

I wish I owned a castle.

[waggawerewolf27]

Ta Ra, Ta Ra...You own a castle. But it is a ruined castle & to put a roof on it would cost a fortune, to have adequate guttering, lead piping etc and so forth. And that doesn't include the up to date plumbing you'd need to install

I wish there would be no more bushfires to the end of summer.

[Courtenay]

Hooray, there are no more bushfires to the end of summer... only constant rain, so you end up having to build an ark instead.

I wish the weather in England could be nicer!

[waggawerewolf27]

Your wish is granted. But before two or three weeks of really nice weather pass in UK, the inhabitants will start complaining about disastrous droughts & not enough rain to keep the rivers flowing.

I wish I could get my work done more quickly.
