Wish granted. Poof! You discover a vast repository of information
hidden on the internet, all of which is right up your interest tree,
and which provides you with 24/7 education and entertainment.
Which you access repeatedly for a month of Sundays, forgoing
meals, sleep, friends, hygiene, ... , breathing ...

I wish I had heard of the Eberhart Conjecture ten years ago ...

Wish granted. But your wife has taken your computer and all your pencils so it is of no use to you.

I wish I could pay off my house.

[QUOTE=MattcAnderson;340095]I wish I could pay off my house.[/QUOTE]Wish granted! Your house burns to the ground. The insurance check exactly covers the mortgage.:furious:

I wish I was in the top 5 lifetime in all categories (LL, TF, P-1, DC, ECM, & ECM-F).

Wish granted, to do that you hijacked every computer you came across... and someone traced it back to you and... The rest is history.

I wish I didn't have to pay for my electric bill.

Wish granted, you no longer receive any electricity thus have no bill.

I wish I were half my age.

[QUOTE=rogue;340135]I wish I were half my age.[/QUOTE]

With granted! Your age becomes the fixpoint of f(x) = x/2.

I wish I could read minds (and turn it off when not using the ability!).

Wish granted, with extremely unpleasant consequences that you can easily read in my mind, but I won't describe here in order not to nauseate anyone else.

I wish I had a good (relative to this thread) wish to post now.

Wish granted. You get so many wishes that you overload and become insane.

I wish life wouldn't be such a b* at times... :razz:

[QUOTE=kracker;340245]I wish life wouldn't be such a b* at times... :razz:[/QUOTE]Granted. Someone, somewhere is experiencing the sunshine and happiness that we all had before we were all crumpled up and dropped on the ground by life. This is a corollary of the Brouwer Fixed Point Theorem.

I wish we could all get along.

Wish granted, someone took control of our minds and kept them like that.

I wish I had better weather for this area than what I am having now...

[QUOTE=kracker;340309]I wish I had better weather for this area than what I am having now...[/QUOTE]
Wish will be granted immediately after you leave the area in a fruitless search for better weather elsewhere.

I wish that we humans were just as able to communicate with animals as we are with each other.
