The Monkey's Paw Game

[Kristina]

You get it - only, you turn into the LEGO statue. Moreover, the OPEC stops all oil deliveries, and for that reason, your government decides to have you recycled to fuel a '56 DeSoto.

(Yes, manuscript was what I meant, but the monkey's paw still works - J.K. Rowling could probably lock me up in The Closet under the Stairs on 4, Privet Drive until July 21 so I couldn't tell anyone.)

I wish I could meet Benjamin Franklin.

[AKAArzosah]

You do. Unfortunately, in 2007, there's not much left of him. Sorry.



I wish everything in life was free.

[Tate]

It is. As a result, all forms of currency become worthless, causing widespread panic, turmoil, and the collapse of every economy in the world. Execpt for the Elbonian economy, which is based on mud.

I wish I could think of a clever wish for this thread.

[Nate the Great]

You do, but your brain is so overtaxed that it overloads, fusing your hair into one of those hairstyles that cartoon characters always sports after stepping on an exposed wire. Sooty cough optional.

I wish that the tenth "planet" and it's "moon" were really named Xena and Gabrielle.

[AKAArzosah]

They are. Unfotunately, Gabrielle was just knocked out of it's orbit by a really large asteroid, and is on a collision course for Earth (Paris, more specifically).


I wish Firefly would get renewed for another ten seasons.

[NeoMatrix]

It does, but they kill off all the main characters and they bring in the cast from Voyager.

I wish star trek DVD sets weren't so expensive

[Nate the Great]

The sets are reduced to ten bucks apiece, but are bought by the underground DVD black market and resold to the public at twice the amount they used to be.

I wish that someone would invent Dave Barry's Morning Time Machine. As originally designed, you would enter a chamber every morning at seven o'clock and spend a few hours stretching, burping, yawning, and so on, and when you come out again it'd still be seven o'clock and you'd be bright-eyed and ready for the day.
