it's the revival of the corrupt wish game (II) - Page 17

She's accepted and you find out the teaching program at UBC is educating women how to control and manipulate men. She brings her work home, much to your chagrin.

I wish my computer had speaker input device instead of using a keyboard input device.

Whoha · February 14, 2004, 20:51

it does, but the computer can't find the drivers for them(you didn't install them, and none exist), and your old keyboard is gone.

I wish I did not have to take this tech writing class.

Mr. Harley · February 15, 2004, 04:17

You don't. The department head decides you are SO good at writing, you get in the grant writing class instead. Now it's boring as well as being tedious, and you don't dare drop it.

I wish this year's USA election results in the highest voter turnouts in since WW2.

self biased · February 15, 2004, 04:30

granted. the entire nation turns out on election day, but elects a homless man from austin tx, by the name of 'leslie' president. he shows up to inaugeration wearing his signature tiara and tu-tu. but on the plus side, he's had a bath and has shaved his legs.

i wish layne from alice in chains didn't commit suicide, and was still making albums with his bandmates.

He goes on Prozac. All his albums are now happy songs, for children.

I wish I could afford to go away for my reading week to Kelowna.

MrFun · February 15, 2004, 05:22

WTF is a place called Kelowna??

Mr. Harley · February 15, 2004, 05:56

You can afford it now. Unfortunately, after the frontal system dumps two feet of snow before moving south, with the -40F temperatures of the polar air mass behind it, you car decides enough is enough. You are stuck in a little hamlet on the highway staying in the back room of the local bar, and you don't have your girlfriend to keep you warm.

I wish you could average the summer temperatures of the southern US with the winter temperatures in Canada, making both places perfect locations to live.

Weird, isn't it? Seems like the writers of Stargate SG-1 can't be arsed to make up names for planets, so they just nick them from towns in British Columbia.

Granted. The tropical resorts AND the snow resorts of both regions close, causing swathes of annoying and stupid bible belt residents to emigrate to to find a better place to live.

I wish this thread was sticky-ed.

Shogun Gunner · February 21, 2004, 14:53

The thread is stickey-ed, but with peanut butter. Its hard to read now.

I wish every avatar was a live webcam shot of the 'Poly person.

Mr. Harley · February 28, 2004, 20:07

It is, and Alinestra accidently forgets to turn it off one night. After she steps out of the shower and into the room with the computer, the exponentially increased number of hits causes all the Apolyton servers to crash. Ming decides this is a bad idea, and we end up with NO Avatars at all.

I hope we can go over 500 posts on this thread this weekend.

self biased · February 29, 2004, 03:59

granted. we do, but nobody cares.

i wish i could stay motivated and finish my marines before my birthday.

Inverse Icarus · February 29, 2004, 04:40

granted. but on their way out, your mother encounters the several remaining marines and storms into your room, to find you covered in man juice. she scolds you for your sexual deviance and and she forces you to spend the next month at a retreat with several catholic priests, where you engage in more sexually deviant activities.

i wish i was asleep right now.

Mr. Harley · March 5, 2004, 22:19

You fall asleep randomly and unpredictably, you have narcolepsy. You ARE asleep right now.

I wish everybody posts just as we reach 499 and we gain a new record before UR shuts us down.

Shogun Gunner · March 6, 2004, 02:06

granted, but UR doesn't care.

I wish nothing bad, or good ever happened to me.

Theben · March 8, 2004, 19:33

You're placed in a stasis field. Nothing ever happens to you again, for all eternity.

I wish I hadn't found this thread while searching for a different one.

Kuciwalker · March 8, 2004, 19:34

Granted. You didn't make that post, but if you had you would have gotten a +1 because of a forum malfunction.

I wish this was the 500th post.

Theben · March 8, 2004, 19:36

Granted. That was the 500th post, in the Nedaverse.

I wish certain posters would remove their Xmas hats. It's frickin' March already!

Kuciwalker · March 8, 2004, 19:38

Granted. I take the xmas hat off my avatar and put it on yours.

I wish I lived in the Nedaverse.

Granted. You find that the old values you'd assigned to everyday phenomenon no longer apply, such as physics and logic. Instead everything no matter what size acts on a quantum reality.

I wish that this is not a cross post.

Kuciwalker · March 8, 2004, 19:42

Granted. You just wasted a wish, because it isn't.

I wish this thread was closed.

500th post!

Theben · March 8, 2004, 20:01

You were just waiting for that, weren't you?

501st!

Shogun Gunner · March 8, 2004, 20:38

and 502....

Theben · March 8, 2004, 20:43

That last post is pure spam...

It is, but for obsence insults that are flung at you.

I wish I could wish upon a star.

Shogun Gunner · March 8, 2004, 21:20

You can wish and you do. Too bad it doesn't matter one bit what you wish. The star is an inanimate object.

I wish that "wish" was spelled differently.

Q Classic · March 8, 2004, 21:21

granted, but the star goes nova before it delivers.

i wish i could close this thread.
