Wish granted. -JRabbit ultimately becomes totally fixated on my avatar, and whenever he sleeps he dreams about it. He accidentally calls his wife "Yuuki" about 3 times/day, making her think he's seeing some Japanese woman on the sly.

I wish that Q Cubed would go here.

Granted. In fact, Q Cubed's new avatar is so amazing that everyone just stares at it, instead of posting, and this thread dies.

I wish everyone would go back to saying "Merry Christmas" instead of "Season's Greetings" or whatever is the politically correct saying now.

EVERYBODY converts to Christianity and wishes each other a merry Christmas. The resulting changes result in a new wave a splinter sects and arguments over what is Christian. Tempers flare, and a new spate of religious wars blossom, the likes of which have not been seen since the reformation. All in the name of Christ.

I wish I could figure out why my home computer quit booting except in safe mode after my wife used it today.

you figure out what happened, but in doing so you figure out not only what actually causes errors in computers, but the methodology to a womans thought pattern. you spend the rest of your life sedated, and posting on counterglow.

i wish it warmer outside right now.

You die. The place you go is REALLY warm.

I wish that Linux gains enough market share that everything gets written in both Windows and Linux flavors, at the same price.

Granted. You are now somewhere else where a company calls Microsoft makes stuffed animal toys. Them are fuzzy and cuddly, and people like them.

I wish I could come up with the Theory of Everything.

Granted. It's totally correct, too. God smiles and says, "Great, game over," destoys this universe, and starts a new one from scratch.

I wish Theban would change back to a non-anime avatar.

Granted. Eventually Theben gets bored with his avatar and changes it. Eventually.

I wish I knew why my avatar bothered -JRabbit so much (espe since I'm not the only person with an anime avatar).

you do. you find out it's because he's a closet recovered otakukin, and once you learn of this secret, your mind collapses in on itself and you become a furry otakukin.

i wish the phone would just stop ringing, because damn, people, if you can't use the computer because you're stupid, it ain't my fault!

The concept of a furry otakukin on its own is enough to cause mental collapse.

Granted. The phone stops ringing and you lose your job.

I wish ALL anime avatars on Poly would disappear.

Granted, all anime avatars are prohibited at Poly...however, the definition of an anime avatar is deemed to include any cartoon-like avatar -- especially bugs bunny avatars.

I wish I had 500 posts so I could have my own special avatar.

Granted. However, your avatar puts the server over its storage limits, and in an unexplained quirk of the time-space continuum, Apolyton is erased from existance.

I wish for world peace.

Granted. You turn into Miss America.

I wish tonight's Tonight Show will have nonstop hilarious jokes for the full show. I mean, who needs guests anyway? Just an hour of laughs is all I need, man.

(A backup wish would be that they had a good guest)

You are so lucky. Jay is killing tonight. He tells one nonstop hilarous joke after another.....and is joined by several guests who also contribute incredible jokes, but too bad it never makes it on TV. Apparently Ashcroft has cancelled all humor because he heard that Osama and Saddam use to frequent humorous websites. Ashcroft is suspicious that humor is the next terror weapon. Jay gets censored, it's never on TV.

I wish I could purge the thought of MrMitchell being Miss America from my brain.

Granted. However, you know have the thought of Slowwhand being Miss America in your brain.

I wish that I could find my laundry bags.

Granted, the only thing is the bags eat your laundry, or anything else you put inside for that matter, so they are totally useless.

I wish I could play more musical instruments.

You can. Any instrument you pick up, instantly and with no effort. After a while it becomes boring, as there are NO musical pieces which require any effort on your part. You give up music entirely, retiring to a Trappist monastery.

I wish I could figure out how my Windows 98SE, refusing to boot up out of safe mode multiple times after my wife used the computer, decided to suddenly boot up normally after being moved back and forth to another machine (back-up prior to fdisking). (Now I don't know when it will happen again, but I'm too lazy to reload EVERYTHING again).

All your base are belong to MicroSoft.

Granted, computers are too difficult for everyone to use now(except for a relatively very few people who are interested in them), and all progress in computers comes to a halt.

I wish pencils always stayed sharpened with complete erasers.

they are. however, the pencils are roughly an inch long, meaning that you can barely write with them.
