Wish granted! You can't have it.

I wish Thunar was a lot more stable.

Wish granted! Turns out, it's still working fine! The bad news is that it stopped working because it was infected with a virus that just finished wiping the drive clean a few minutes ago.

Granted. It never crashes. Problem is, it now randomly corrupts stuff.

I wish for a magic Geforce 256 that can run any game at any resolution with any renderer at a solid, stable 60 FPS with VSync enabled and every setting cranked the whole way up. :D

Granted. However, the RAM is all DDR1 and the CPU isn't compatible with your motherboard. You try it anyway, but that only causes the computer to become self-aware, take over the internet, and enslave humanity.

Good going.

I wish for a lifetime supply of doughnuts. :D

Wish granted, but your newly acquired 930LBs of fat ends up becoming self-aware, taking over all doughtnut shops on earth, and enslaving humanity.

I wish people commented their code better.

Wish granted, everybody now writes a novelistic explanation about what he thought when writing a single line of code. Explanations become that much you need three hours to get through 5 lines of code XD


I wish I knew why my computer comes up with "kernel inpage error" -messages and blue-screens since three to four weeks :evil:

Wish granted, but you found out that it was a lethal piece of malware that zeroed out your drive and removed your BIOS.

I wish that none of the top ramen packets came stale. :^|

Wish granted, but the version of iOS it ships with has a timebomb bug which corrupts the firmware permanently after a day of use.

I wish OEMS wouldn't try and stop you from fiddling with the operating systems on mobile devices.

So do I. However, the illiterate dudes ruin their devices and come crying to the OEM thinking it was their fault.

I wish for enough time over the weekend to make something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHJOz_y9rZE

Sure, but I think that you'll need to skip out on eating, sleeping, or going to the bathroom.

I wish that I could develop videogame franchises as epic as, say, Mario, the Legend of Zelda, Kirby, or Metroid.

Granted, and it's not forward compatible, you need to learn the future python 4, use time machine.

I wish the Earth is just a flat platter with the edge to fall down to nowhere.
