Currupt a wish | Imamother

One person posts a wish. The next person answers that wish, but adds negative consequences. And they post a wish of their own. Here are some examples:
PERSON 1: I wish I had x-ray vision
PERSON 2: Granted, but it only works in nursing homes. I wish I were rich.
PERSON 3: Granted, but after a few months of having anything you want, you don't want anything any more.I wish I had a new house.
PERSON 4: granted, granted but you have to live next door to Micheal Jackson.

I'll start:
I wish I had a day off.

Granted, but it becomes permanent--you've been fired.
I wish I looked like Michelle Pfeiffer.

You look like Michelle Pfeiffer - the way she looked in the movie Stardust, a several hundred years old witch. (Sorry)

I wish I had live-in help.

Hey, Michelle Pfeiffer as a 400-y/o witch still looked awfully darn good for her age. Consider what your average woman looks like at age 400.

I'm sorry every one, I didn't realize this gave would have this kind of reaction. I saw it on another forum and it was a big hit there. And I thought that, everybody wishes for something they don't have as if they are entitled to it. But if someone shows you that that wish is not as gratifying as you thought it might be, you could say that you are happy with what you have already.
Sorry again. If I could take it off I would.

Now how do you like that? I was going to post that clearly Yulka's point of this exercise is to realize that you must be careful what you wish for, because things are not always all they're cracked up to be. Then I thought, naaah, reading too much into it. Glad to see I wasn't.

Well, I liked your idea. I got that it was NOT about being mean. Oh, well.

Hey, I just thought it was a game. You think you're getting what you want, and uh-oh. You marry the man of your dreams...and it turns out to be Barbra Streisand dressed as a yeshivah bochur.

People are taking games way too seriously these days. People are taking everything way too seriously these days.

More importantly, it gives you the opportunity to mock what others want.

I was playing around, like saying that it's fun to mock everyone else's dreams. Well, I was sort of playing around. I'd be happy to mock most peoples' dreams.

Got any dreams that need some mocking?
