granted, but it grows up into a normal-sized cat after one day.

i wish i could order from restaurants just by thinking about it.

Granted. You end up ordering food by accident all the time, and ordering this way is 10x more expensive.

I wish they would add a new alternate Demon Hunter hero to Hearthstone, and one that isn't a night elf this time.

[down] I am 1000% on board with this.

Granted. It's Brightwing. And no, the devs don't want to hear any explanations as to why it doesn't make sense. They just think it would be fun...and funny.

I wish for a Castlevania: Symphony of the Night stage play where the actors reenact the infamous "What is a man?" opening.

Granted. The delivery is filled with so much Narm that it tanks the franchise as a whole. At least we got a So Bad, It's Good performance though.

I wish Seth MacFarlane used more anime references in Family Guy.

Granted, but they’re all in Japanese.

I wish I could go to sleep, I’ve been awake all night.

Granted! You're now in a permanent slumber and everyone thinks you're dead. (I guess I went a little bit too far with that one)

I wish I could stay up all night long.

Granted. You're called into work the next morning for an 8 hour shift and you'll be fired if you're caught dozing off.

I wish A&W would bring back the Sriracha Teen Burger.

Granted, but all small development studios no longer have the funds to make more games and end up shutting down. Big businesses are unaffected and end up absorbing the small studios, making the gaming industry even more corporate & soulless.


I wish all diseases were cured worldwide.

Granted. All present diseases are cured. Unfortunately new ones start popping up after your wish and infecting people like crazy.

I wish I could read other people's minds.

Granted. But the corporations promptly seize all the real power leaving your control over the governments meaningless.

I wish everyone who drove recklessly through Seattle would have their car immediately break down.

Granted. However, to maintain balance in the universe, you're unable to actually do anything with that power, as anything you do is balanced out by a completely opposite effect.

I wish I could always hang out with any friend that I wanted.

Granted. This wish drains all of your energy every time you are with a friend, so when you do hang out with them, you end up falling asleep and making the whole hangout meaningless.

I wish I could never lose in a competition.

Granted. And because your new computerized brain is different from a human mind, you are now an emotionless cyborg. You can download any ability...except the ability to feel.

I wish Ōban Star-Racers was less obscure and had a bigger fandom.

All witches, all skeletons, all jack O Lanterns, gather round your TV set, put on your masks, and watch...watch the magic pumpkin, Watch...

Granted. It becomes inexplicably popular with the incel crowd. Whenever someone discovers that you're a fan of it, you have to defend yourself, and the general public is unwilling to touch it with a ten foot pole due to the toxic association.

I wish for humanity to solve the problem of climate change in 2023.

Granted. You now have the ability to unpeel carrots. Go ahead and figure out what to do with this.

I wish autocorrect would only correct things how I want them corrected.

Granted. This means that autocorrect won't do anything to spelling and grammar mistakes that you don't notice since, if you don't know that it needs fixing, you can't "want" it to be fixed.

I wish I had the house to myself for Winter Break.
