I would wish for great relationships with all the people in my everyday life.

That or enough money to never have to work again, and to buy myself out of any trouble I might get in.

diddagirl 06-20-2005 03:22 PM

I wish I was best friends with Britney Spears (the Britney before Kevin). I could meet all her celeb friends, and have a good share of her money. Good life it would be....

Hmmm I figured out how to help someone's wish come true... buuut I didn't say what my wish was because I hadn't figured it out yet.

I'd like to become more emotionally actualized. My anger can really get in the way sometimes... and I can be mean when I really don't want to be.

Ooooo... and, like ngdawg, I'd like to not to be in debt. 20 years old and around $15,000 in debt is not a good place to be. I'll be burying my dad in money. :rolleyes:

I'd have to go with Charlatan--unlimited wealth and the time to enjoy it. I want to travel the world--even without going first-class it adds up.

skier 06-20-2005 05:18 PM

The ability to enthrall, amuse, captivate. I want to be able to charm the socks off an eskimo in the dead of winter. To spin tales that ensnare the imagination and provoke deep thought- a modern day bard, exchanging food and lodging for excitement and adventure for all those I come across.

CrispyTheClown 06-20-2005 05:41 PM

Another beer. Nearsest drive-thru is 20 miles away.

I'm not greedy.

Seeker 06-20-2005 06:02 PM

I would wish for money. I am happy with where I am at the moment, and with everything I want to do I need a good supply of money.

Just to clarify, I want to take some courses and set up a couple of things 'work wise'... if I worked to get money I would not have the time for the courses or the set-ups, so to have some money behind me would be perfect.

MexicanOnABike 06-20-2005 06:50 PM

to be the most creative person ever.

soma 06-20-2005 06:54 PM

Triple stuff Oreos.

Sweetpea 06-20-2005 06:55 PM

anything? anything you say?

I wish that my illness had a cure and that i could live my life without the pain that fills my every movement.

Gimmick 06-20-2005 07:07 PM

I want Jimi Hendrix's "Woodstock" 1968 Strat and Jimmy Page's #1 1958 Les Paul. Plus the ability to do them both justice!

maleficent 06-20-2005 07:48 PM

Changed my mind... I still wanna be drop dead gorgeous for a week (and get revenge on every person who ever called me ugly Though I'd need more than a week for that)

I want a natural talent - whether it be a music, voice, meeting people, a photographic eye, some form of artistry... I want a natural talent... something that I am good at that just comes naturally. (I used to be really good at slving quadratic equations, but outside of math club geek mixers, no one really cares)

Having been on the hard end of solving more than few quadratic equations, I have to say I would gladly give up the few worthless things I seem to be good at to have your 'natural' talent. :)

A very distant second to the 'having a butt-load of money' would have to be really, really smart. Like Stephen Hawking smart. I'm no intellectual slouch, but to have that kind of mastery over the realms of math and science would be very, very...cool.

\.

once you are out of college, that skill no longer is useful... and I lost that skill sometime in my 20s :(

Borgs 06-20-2005 08:16 PM

A peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Completley selfish. And yet, I truly would like nothing more at the moment. But alas, I only have bread.

oblar 06-20-2005 08:26 PM

i think just to amuse my own sadistic nature, I would want the ability to grant other people their wishes; however, I get to interpret their wish...

bring on the word games.

Rodney 06-20-2005 08:32 PM

I want the power to make tires burst at will.

Cut _me_ off on the freeway, wilya? Think you're home free, do you? Well, KAPOW, HOTROD BOY!

It's trivial, but I'd _really enjoy it._

clavus 06-20-2005 09:59 PM

A strong, healthy back and neck. I hate being so limited. I hate hurting all the time.

healer 06-20-2005 10:38 PM

I want a hole in the back of my head and that Upload Machine that Neo trained on in The Matrix, along with a myriad of disks of skills and abilities at my fingertips. I wanna be able to lie down, plug in, hit a button and 10 seconds later:

"I know Kung-Fu" :D

Frosstbyte 06-20-2005 10:55 PM

I want know be able to speak all spoken languages and be fully literate in all written languages, and both, where applicable. I have dreams about having this ability. It would be the most fantastic thing ever.

ryborg 06-20-2005 11:10 PM

Women would adore me!

Sage 06-20-2005 11:21 PM

I wish enlightenment for everyone on earth. I firmly believe it's possible, and attainable, it's just the progress is _SO_ slow!

K-Wise 06-20-2005 11:25 PM

To be in a great physical condition, not be blind anymore, have nice teeth, a nice body, healthy.

That or have someone just give me everything I need to record music.

Asta!!

spectre 06-20-2005 11:51 PM

I would like not to be in pain any more. I'm almost always in pain, and I'd really like not having to deal with it any more. Chronic pain sucks.

gilbert- 06-20-2005 11:56 PM

I would wish for surf here, every day of the year.. and no crowds either!

G5_Todd 06-21-2005 01:07 AM

one million dollars.....no one billion dollars

flat5 06-21-2005 01:16 AM

perfect health

Bagezio2 06-21-2005 10:47 AM

I would wish that I could do absolutley anything I want to in the world, with no limitations and reprecussions.

*Nikki* 06-21-2005 10:57 AM

My car to be in MY name and paid free and clear.

Hash_Browns 06-21-2005 04:57 PM

To know how to best raise my children to live fullfilled lives, while learning to do so myself. It would make my dreams come true to just know what to say and do and teach them :) Would be my greatest accomplishment in life.

Me too! Also it would help if she had 50 million dollars.

1337haxor 06-21-2005 05:34 PM

I wish for happiness :)

RoadRage 06-21-2005 06:47 PM

The sudden appearance of US$500M in my checking account would be sweet.

In retrospect, you're probably right, but it sure would have made my high school/college years a lot easier.

Sadly, the hours wasted on higher mathematics diverted me from my true passion...origami. :lol:

arghhh - someone else with a creative skill... :(

wolf 06-22-2005 03:57 AM

Peace on earth and good will toward all me...... oh fuck that

Money, lots and lots of money.

Demeter 06-22-2005 05:46 AM

I wish I had all the right answers.

reiii 06-22-2005 09:49 AM

1. Magneto's powers

Disk_Pusher 06-22-2005 03:57 PM

1. Make MJ legal. Like, I walk down to 7/11 and buy a pack of "Marlboro PhatBudz Filterless" legal. Because I really can't enjoy it thinking of the consequences.

MSD 06-23-2005 06:50 AM

I would wish for one of two things. I'm not sure which I would choose.

First would be an investment account with high enough returns that I could pay off my family's debt, the debt of everyone who has ever let my family borrow money, and live a comfortable but excessive lifestyle. Just getting by would be sufficient, but if it's going to be a selfish wish, I want my own house with a moat, a refrigerated swimming pool for my pet penguins, and a garage big enough to store my expensive cars.

My other choice would be a multi-part wish, including a congressional repeal of the constitutional age limit on the perisidency, a third-party nomination of me for the 2008 presidential race, and the willingness of the American people to elect me in a historic landslide vote.
