AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a playful and humorous game where participants grant wishes in a twisted manner, leading to ironic and often disastrous outcomes. Each wish is followed by a response that grants it in the worst possible way, highlighting the absurdity of the requests. For example, wishing for less spam results in the deletion of an email server, and wishing for a job leads to becoming a suicide bomber. The game showcases creativity and wit, with participants crafting increasingly elaborate and ridiculous scenarios. The tone remains light-hearted, emphasizing the humorous consequences of seemingly innocent wishes. Overall, the thread serves as a comedic exploration of the classic "be careful what you wish for" trope.

Granted. You don't have enough tentacles to repeat the procedure.

I wish it was not that cold.
Shoot Borek**, I wanted to tell you that you're now burning in Hell for the rest of eternity. Opportunity lost.

Granted. You've also been widely reported as an internet spammer. All of your emails to friends are automatically deleted before they see them, and every internet forum you join bans you automatically. Hope you enjoy writing paper letters and interacting with people face to face.

I wish Bush were no longer presi--uh wait, nevermind. Um, I wish I were 20 years younger, but still knew everything I know now.

**Note, "shoot" is a figure of speech in English. Not being used in the command sense here.

Oops, didn't mean to post an untwistable wish. Okay, how about:

I wish I could play the banjo.

Granted, but you only know how to play songs by Mozart or AC/DC.

I wish I had a transporter, like the one in Star Trek.

Granted, except you have no control over your destination and can only go to concerts by Britney Spears and similarly lame pop tarts.

I wish I had a replicator, like the one in Star Trek.

Granted, but you can only replicate Britney Spears and similarly lame pop tarts. Oh, and hundreds of PF members keep bugging you, wanting to borrow your replicator.

I wish I had a holodeck, like the one in Star Trek.

Granted - you're already in it. You didn't think that was real life, did you? Unfortunately the exit portal is permanently broken.

I wish I had more usable storage space in my house.

Granted but now you have no microscope - it got stolen.

I wish it wasn't so hot in here ... shouldn't be too cold either!

Granted, the temperature has dropped two tenths of one degree.
