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

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]

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]

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]

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]

WTF is a place called Kelowna??

[Mr. Harley]

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]

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]

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]

granted. we do, but nobody cares.

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

[Inverse Icarus]

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]

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]

granted, but UR doesn't care.

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