One completely selfish wish
 
If you had to pick one completely selfish wish, what would it be?

I am asking for "selfish" wishes to avoid answers (good ones) such as "End world hunger" and the like.

I mean, what would you want, for yourself, more than anything?

My wish would be to meet/talk with/and establish a friendship relationship with Angelina Jolie. That is the one thing I would ask completely for my selfish reasons.

What about you? :thumbsup:


PS. I hope this hasn't been done before. I tried the search a bit, but didn't find anything

The ability to completely control Matter....with a mere thought


Well.....you asked

Glory's Sun 06-20-2005 10:01 AM

2 words- World Domination

New eyeballs with 20/20 vision. Or better. Maybe options for infrared, x-ray, telescopic, etc. I'd settle for being able to read the time on the clock radio in the middle of the night and to be able to identify which body is my wife's while I'm swimming (my eyes are at about -13 diopters).

optik_nerve 06-20-2005 10:09 AM

I would want a wish that gave me unlimited wishes. :thumbsup:

Meditrina 06-20-2005 10:26 AM

Right now, I would say I want someone to come and redo my yard, bathrooms, and kitchen, for free of course.

stevie667 06-20-2005 10:28 AM

The ability to create a hareem with anyone i want :D

*starts listing names*

raeanna74 06-20-2005 10:29 AM

I'd like to own LOTS of stock in the Public service company. More than 50% of it.

KellyC 06-20-2005 10:35 AM

I wish I could be omnipotent...

fhqwhgads 06-20-2005 10:36 AM

A completely stocked woodworking shop, and the time to be able to enjoy it.

Cuatela 06-20-2005 10:38 AM

I wish I had certain superpowers, specifically teleportation, invisibility, "x-ray" vision, telepathy, invulnerability

ShaniFaye 06-20-2005 10:45 AM

if I'd seen this yesterday, I'd have said I wish for Dave and I to have a life in scotland

today...I wish my arm were not broken

StormBerlin 06-20-2005 10:48 AM

I wish for all my debt to be paid off, student loans, car, credit cards, signature loan, etc.

hambone 06-20-2005 11:03 AM

Lots of good answers....from now on, try to filter out the superpowers though. Instead focus on attainable things. Things you want but just don't have at this time.

lurkette 06-20-2005 11:04 AM

Can I have three wishes? The genie always gives you three wishes.

1. To be stunningly, jaw-droppingly, breathtakingly beautiful.

2. To be debt-free.

3. To know beyond a shadow of a doubt what my "calling" in this life is, and to be pursuing it wholeheartedly.

ShaniFaye 06-20-2005 11:09 AM

I wish lurkette already knew that #1 was granted to her from birth :thumbsup:

StanT 06-20-2005 11:09 AM

I'd like to swap bank accounts with Bill Gates. 60 hour work weeks for a couple of years is dragging me down. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. Philanthropist/Playboy seems like a nice occupation with better hours.

Marvelous Marv 06-20-2005 11:33 AM

I'd wish I were better at sexual gymnastics. Yesterday, I almost broke my arm! :lol:

No, seriously, how did it happen?

Charlatan 06-20-2005 11:51 AM

I wish for unlimited wealth, with no strings attached... The ability to buy whatever I want, not have to work for it and most importantly to be able to say no when I want.

streak_56 06-20-2005 12:01 PM

My own diamond mine.

jaco 06-20-2005 12:04 PM

I would wish for something or someone who could answer any question I have with the truth. This includes things beyond current human knowledge.

amonkie 06-20-2005 12:10 PM

A completely paid for trip to dive Cozumel till I get sick and tired of it, and good company with me.

In that case, I want a gorgeous girl who I get along with perfectly.

MageB420666 06-20-2005 12:15 PM

Immortality and the ability to rule the world with an iron fist!

Everyone would have to obey my every command! Kneel and bow before me!

That is a great wish, so I'm going to wish for that too. To actually know what you are supposed to do with your life must be awesome.

Zeraph 06-20-2005 12:26 PM

Super Powers, course depending how I used them would determine if it was selfish.

Bingo. Money can't buy happiness, but it's makes walking the path a whole lot easier.

If we are delving into the world of superhuman ability, I would want to control time. Bad day? Go back and make it better. Want to learn to play the piano in a day i.e. 'Groundhog Day?' It can be done.

Pacifier 06-20-2005 12:53 PM

hmm, completly selfish?
I want that one particular girl to be in love with me

but at the end that would be one of the wishes that would make me even more unhappy I guess.

Jinn 06-20-2005 12:57 PM

Happiness no matter what I'm doing.

At first I thought omnipotence, then I thought omniscience. Then I decided money. In reality, thought.. I'd only want those things so I could make myself "happier."

Just wishing for happiness always, whether im working or showering or playing video games, that would be ideal.

canuckguy 06-20-2005 01:10 PM

a powerful "tazer" that fit on my key chain that i could use to zap all cellphones causing them to melt to the ear of the user in question within a 1 mile of me while i eat, drive, watching a movie......

or

a small island we could put all the pedo's on....and torch it.

Siege 06-20-2005 01:14 PM

I would wish to be in a relatively happy mood for the rest of my life.

or money. Lots of it

ruggerp11 06-20-2005 01:16 PM

I wish I never had to worry about money ever again, meaning I would have a shit ton of it.

hambone 06-20-2005 01:23 PM

Money and happiness are the prevailing winners so far it seems.

Now, to spruce this up a bit. Read through everyone's wishes. Can you help them at all in granting it? Who needs a genie when you have other people to help out? :thumbsup:

So, what I mean by that is....Who can introduce me to AJ? :lol:

Seriously :)

JinnKai -

Happiness in abundance is coming. Just you wait.
:icare:

absorbentishe 06-20-2005 02:10 PM

Not sure on this one. I'd like more money than one can spend in their life, or then next 10 generations. My hair to come back. A bigger thicker (you know), just because. With the first one, I can take care of the next one, maybe not the third, that's just a dream.

KellyC 06-20-2005 02:22 PM

Ok...lemme re-wish it.

I wish I can spend the rest of my life living happily ever after with my gf with no fanancial worries at all....or any other worries for that matter...yep...worry-free lives.

maleficent 06-20-2005 02:25 PM

Three wishes:
To have the spirit I once had...
To not be bothered by what other people think
To be absolutely gorgeous for one week... just to know what it's like... just a week, that's all I ask...

06-20-2005 02:25 PM

I wish I had a little code fairie that could do all my tricky coding for me when I simply can't be bothered to do it myself.

qtpye4u84 06-20-2005 02:30 PM

I want an easy job that pays alot, so that I can get my own place and a newcar so that I can be free of stupid ppl.

ngdawg 06-20-2005 02:41 PM

To be exactly where I want to be both physically and emotionally.
To NOT be in debt up to my eyeballs...just once...
