Twisted Wish Game

Postby MrNumbers » Tue Apr 30, 2013 12:58 pm

A personal favourite forum game of mine.

Essentially everyone answers someone else's wish in true genie fashion before making one of their own.

A quick run through:

Person One: I wish for a good cup of hot coffee.



Person Two: Granted. It's a beautifully made mug, very high quality, but the coffee tastes like watered down fertiliser.

I wish Cracked stopped saying "Mind Blowing" and "Won't believe" and "Insane" in their titles.



And now, my turn: Granted, the titles, and articles, are now all entirely in latin. It's totally non compos mentis!

And my wish, thus starting the game in earnest is:

I wish I had the ability to save and load points in my life like a video game, retaining knowledge of my errors in video game fashion so as not to cause an infinite loop of fail-load-fail.
(A good wish makes sure it's specific, to discourage laziness in the granter and to make the twist that much more spectacular!)

Your wish is granted. However, your new life is an ongoing escort mission. You must protect your idiotic and slightly suicidal twin from all harm.

I wish I had a really good ham sandwich on rye, with onions, tomato and lettuce, some horseradish and spicy mustard, with maybe one of those little olives on a toothpick sticking out the top (where I can see the toothpick, so I don't bite into it and stab myself in the mouth.)

You are granted your sandwich containing good ham, rye, onions, tomato, lettuce, horseradish, spicy mustard and a stab-proof olive but it also contains tar, electronic components and someone who wished for me to make them a ham sandwich.


I wish my kidneys would stop imploding and my liver would stay put.

Granted, your liver starts imploding and your kidneys won't stay put.

I wish I wasn't the sort of person that suddenly got very hungry for thinking about that.

Granted. You now get hungry every time you think about pregnancy.

I wish I had a suit made of red velour.

Granted! Shame Red Velour won't be dancing at the local strip club anymore, but, what can you do, right?

I wish I had the powers of invisibility and flight.

Granted! Unfortunately, in order to gain the powers of invisibilty and flight, you must first relinquish depth perception and spacial orientation. Look out!

I wish I had an undending supply of chocolate-covered espresso beans...that don't, say, taste like crap, and aren't covered in crap, or...well, you get the point.

Granted! Now expresso covered crap will forever rain down on you.

I wish I were linguistically omniscient.

Granted. You can now understand any and every language. But you are STILL a bear, so people still run screaming from you and wave flaming campfire logs and growl to scare you away- and never stop to talk to you.


I wish heroic music would play whenever I enter a room.

Granted. Unfortunately it only plays in your head and people will look at you like you're insane when you pose dramatically.

I wish I could fly

Granted, but you didn't specify which room, so now dramatic blaring music will play every time you enter a bathroom. Whilst this has the whole 'Just made it in time' effect, and makes deification a lot more enjoyable, the music is very loud and people will come to associate it purely with your bowel movements.

I wish for the ability to use telekinesis at least as strong as I currently am.

Sorry for accidentally skipping yours, I'll go on to answer yours whilst keeping my own question.

You're given the ability to fly as good as, if not better than, Superman for 95% of the day. You'll never know which five percent of the day that you can't, and you'll get no warning... Gee, I hope you're not too high up when it happens!

"Deification"? Holy shit!...we now return you to your regularly scheduled thread.)

*sizes up MrNumbers before granting wish, squeezes bicep, takes blood pressure, gets urine sample* Granted. For better or worse, you now have the telekinetic strength... of someone who can bench-press 57 lbs. Have fun almost slowing people down on their bicycles, and breaking a sweat levitating more than one shopping bag with your mind. ;)


I wish for... World Peace!
