Three Wishes

Let's say you find a magic genie's lamp and the genie makes you an offer of three wishes, however the wishes are for specific things; one for yourself, one for someone else, and one trivial wish(e.g. a sandwich, temperature difference, etc.)

For me I'd pick:
1- Find my true love (corny I know, but my dream in life is to have a family)
2- For my dad to be able to play with a band more often.
3- An extra-large bag of taco Doritos :P

I'm wondering what would be your picks?

When watching cartoons as a kid and the typical 'three wishes from a fairy' popped up, I always found it incredibly stupid they didn't use the last wish to wish for another three (or more) wishes, so that would definitely be one of the three...

1. For my tinnitus (and other ear problems) to go away
2. Some unspecified ammount of money (because it indirectly translates into freedom)

Honestly I don't have a third one. 'Time' would be nice but... it's not really feasible.

Edit: Well ok a third one, I'd wish for Katzenjammer's second album to be better ;__;

Thirded, but I think everybody has this.

1)To find the true love too :)
2)Wish my the whole family live happy and together in a big-big house :D
3)Super Audio/Video System (Video screen, cassette/vinyl/cd player, ultrasound coloumns, almost already existed stationed and portable game consoles)

God...i'm a crazy person :lol:

1- Have infinite wishes.

And that's it.

I would wish that every human now living and every future generation was completely happy and fulfilled. I really want this, because it really hurts me to see how many people in the world are in so much suffering. If that wish isn't possible, I would wish that the world had never existed, for the same reason. Also, I would wish that I was hyper sensitive again. Sensitivity comes with both advantages and disadvantages and the disadvantages are what made it disappear in my life, although it does come back at the right moments.

Perfect teeth
Control of super-speed and flight, while not being motion-sick.
For things to always go right, even if it may seem like everything is the worst (I personally believe the world works like this already, but it can't hurt to wish).

1. You no longer have a head. no more ear problems.
2. stolen from a drug cartel. start running.
3. 'Better' is subjective. and this Genie loves KISS.

1. she's dead already - you die
2. local plague breaks out - your entire family is brought closer together in the hospital.
3. It only plays KISS and KISS-related merchandise.

1- every wish you make will cause you to gradually turn to stone.

Everyone in the world dies instantly.

1- they aren't human teeth
2- I think just giving a person super speed and flight would cause enough collateral havoc that I don't have to add a rider to this one. Please remember to get to a reasonable height before causing sonic booms/entering the speed force.
3- The earth never existed.





personally, I'd wish for a vinyl lathe, an apprenticeship at Electric Audio (where I'd undoubtedly have to record KISS :P ), and for Fred C Koch [and solely Fred C Koch] to never have existed.

If this is the best a Genie can do, then no. I am disappointed with you.



Also, superstitious much?

iunno about superstitious but If I were a genie with nothing better to do, I would dick people around on their wishes that I was forced to grant.

1. To have a pen that when I write someting down it happens IRL, never runs out of ink, and can never be misplaced.
2. A bank account for my family that never runs out of money.
3. A bottle of lube.

1. you lose both arms via getting them crushed in an accident. one of the replacements you choose is said pen-arm.
2. Your wife has a terrible allergic reaction to a new drug; said drug manufacturer pays a gigantic, ongoing settlement but your wife is left paralyzed from the neck down for the rest of her life.
3. caulk can be lube, if you don't dilly-dally.
