They do, but then change the rules. It's now the 100->0 game, or a zero-sum game.
I wish more people would post in threads I create.

Granted. Threadjackers now jack everyone of your threads.
I wish I could go back to the summer, and enjoy my holiday in Kelowna all over again.

You can go back to the summer. Again, and again, and again (a la Ground Hog day). The problem is you never figure out why it's repeating, and are stuck in it forever.
I wish that I was in bed asleep instead of posting like a maniac on these forums.

Granted -- now you will never wake up, ever again, until you are kissed by President Bush.
I wish for voter apathy to be completely eradicated, with 100% participation during elections.

The voters participate, and when they disagree, they do it with a vengeance. A second war between the states results, except this time it's within states and between multiple regions. The United States resembles the Balkans.
I wish I hadn't hit the "my threads" link one last time to show my wife how the evil wish game has been developing.

you hadn't. instead, you hit a "my porn" link that showed her what kind of skanky, dirty, nasty man-ho she married.
i wish that the dining hall food were edible AND palatable. maybe even delicious.

It is. However the staff now bars you from eating there due to 'sanitary' reasons.
I wish for a star trek marathon, and a big tub of ice-cream, and a week to myself.

granted. they show a marathon of Captain Janeway being indecisive for a week, your ice cream is avacado flavored, and your week to yourself is the last hundred and forty-eight hours you ever have by yourself.
i wish miss kitty would reconsider.

She does. However, it's not with you.
I wish my wife would let me post certain pictures like self-biased and zykla do to show how hot she is.

granted, but she decides she rather fancies myself or zylka, and leaves you.
i wish y'all could understand how cool it is to be able to hear the pianist turn pages on a recording.

She likes older men, and considers Harrison Ford and Sean Connery hot. You don't stand a chance.

You have to do it carefully - about like Connery in "Robin & Marion" he was just a little bit older - and I'VE got more hair. Too much grey = tacky (old enough to be her dad). Too little and a callow youth.
Red Robin Hood sampled the three bears. This one is too grey and balding. This one is just a babe and too anxious. And this one is juuuusssttt right.

End thread jack.
We all understand just how cool it is. In fact, it starts a new trend, and all the artists make absolutely certain we can hear those pages turn. They even put a special microphone there. The resulting excesses result in a resurgence in bad heavy metal, blue grass, and electronic new age music. Piano playing becomes a dying art.
I wish I could get my beard color to match my hair color, without the latter being almost solid grey.

You can. Just that the solid block of concrete that was the closest color approximation to your hair has solidified in your beard, making it impossible to lift your head.
I wish for a First Edition Black Lotus.

Everyone's head gets to be a smiley. But they are all this one:
I wish I had remembered I had to post a wish in addition to just answering one before I posted here.

But you did remember. So now you didn't make the wish. So you did forget to make a wish, so you wish you remembered. But you did remember... . God gets bored by the recursive loop. The world ends.
I wish I hadn't tried to install the newest Direct-X on my Windows 98SE machine.

you didn't, but your computer mysteriously stops working for no reason now.
also, i'd like to corrupt shadowstrike's wish too:
congratulations. you're now the proud owner of the Redmption card game's black lotus card from the first edition (ninny. it's alpha you're thinking of).
i wish we didn't keep forgetting about this thread.

Forgot to make a wish...
I wish that asher swung back on his pendulum and developed a crush on Kim Basinger.

The wish is granted; Asher is now inseparably bound to Kim Basinger.
I force you to swap bodies with Kim Basinger. You are now stuck with asher.
I wish for lots of SPAM.

A malicious friend enters you in the Monty Python memorial SPAM contest. You win. You have a lifetime supply of SPAM. SPAM with toast for breakfast, SPAM on rye for lunch, SPAM fritters for dinner, you go SPAM crazy. They drag you away covered in that gelatinious goo muttering SPAM, SPAM, SPAAAMMMM.
I wish all Spammers were fed SPAM until they bloated up and went mad.

They are indeed fed with spam.
Unfortunately, your next-door neighbour turns out to be one of the biggest spammers. Your driveway is constantly blocked by incoming trucks delivering spam. Anything that doesn't fit in his house is dropped off at your place instead. Furthermore, people quickly realise it must be the place of a spammer. But thanks to the excess spam, they suspect you as well, and you also get tons of unsolicited mail and other unpleasantries to cope with. You go equally mad.
I wish my depression would disappear.

Your depression disappears and instead is replaced with flamboyant cheerfulness. You decide to go into the business of aerobics videos, grow your hair out curly and start sporting very short shorts. You are now universally mocked and scorned, as you've become Richard Simmons.
I wish I got a good night's sleep last night.

You did. And you stay sleeping. 50 years later, you wake up, a la Rip van Winkle. You become the feature attraction in a museum.
I wish my girlfriend would get accepted into the teaching program at UBC.
