The discussion revolves around the concept of making a single wish, with participants sharing humorous and imaginative ideas. Suggestions range from whimsical wishes like free cheese for everyone to more profound desires for wisdom or health. The conversation touches on the potential pitfalls of wishing, referencing pop culture examples where wishes go awry, such as in "The X-Files" and various anecdotes about genies. Participants express a desire for personal happiness, peace of mind, and even fantastical scenarios like creating a new country filled with beloved fictional characters. The dialogue is light-hearted, filled with playful banter about the implications of wishes and the absurdity of certain requests, while also highlighting the complexities and paradoxes that can arise from the act of wishing.

Just daisy-chain the rest of them, so the last servant serves the first one.

Nah, I think we should give Moonbear a Herculean number of tasks. She's busy enough just chasing Artman, it'll be funny to watch those veins start popping out of her head...

I'd wish for a new country to be made just south-west of Britain where all my favourite books and films and stuff really existed. The town where the Goonies live would be there, and Shermer, Illinois, and Arthur Dent and Ford Prefect would live there and they'd take me on trips in the Heart of Gold and I could go on lots of adventures with Don Quixote, I'd be the best.

And Weezer sing you to sleep at night and every morning Jeeves wakes you with a pot of tea and a bacon sandwich with lots of ketchup.

And there's no traffic, except me tootling around in my TVR. And there's only 3 kinds of weather: Bright, warm & breezy, snowy, and thunderstorms! And twice a week, the female members of S-Club (minus Jo, she got the flo!) come to give me and Danger a back rub.

Yay! And Stephen Fry would live next door and he'd read stories and be funny on request, and Cap'n Jack Sparrow would live across the street in a rum distillery, and there'd be towns where whenever you entered a room a 'live studio audience' would cheer and when you said something funny they'd laugh, and other towns where people would spontaneously start dancing and singing en masse every seven and a half minutes. This is fun, I hope I meet a genie.brewnog said:

I would wish to know the last digit of pi; just to see if the universe ends.

I control the thermostat, but I will make you my "moon cookies"...two ritz crackers with peanut butter between them, dipped in white chocolate. If you like the white reeses, you'll love these. It's the Evo child's favorite treat.Echo 6 Sierra said:
