Break-A-Wish ... just for fun

00100001 · 30/10/2019 15:19

So, this is a little game to play, like Make-A-Wish, but you break someones' wish by grianting it, and then making it bad.

So for example
Poster 1: I wish I won the lottery!
Poster 2: Congratulations! You wont hte kacpot, but cna't find your ticket... I wish I was taller!
Poster Three: Poof, you're 10ft tall... etc

here's my wish :

I wish that Someone else would make dinner tonight!

@Mamalicious16 leg day is when you train legs and is generally painful, leg day was today, both dp and I are waking like John Wayne 😂

Poof, you have pizza, but it was given to you upside down.

I wish dp would just put a jumper on not turn the heating on.

Elodie2019 · 01/11/2019 22:49

Poof! DO puts a jumper on and removes all of the radiators in the house just in time for winter. Brrrr.

I wish I hadn't eaten so much curry.

Elodie2019 · 01/11/2019 22:50

DP not DO

TheNestedIf · 02/11/2019 07:23

Poof! You have food poisoning. Situation reversed!

I wish the upstairs neighbour wasn't warbling/yodelling/whatever-the-hell at just after 7am AT THE BLOODY WEEKEND!

ScreamingCosArgosHaveNoRavens · 02/11/2019 08:02

Poof! Your neighbour shuts up - but starts playing '100 Greatest Thrash Metal Anthems' at max volume this evening, and carries on till 5am tomorrow.

I wish I had a posh new winter coat.

Elodie2019 · 02/11/2019 08:59

Poof! You have a posh new winter coat but it is so heavy and hot you can't move in it.

I wish it was Christmas day

ScarlettDarling · 02/11/2019 09:07

Poof! It's Christmas Day today, tomorrow and every other day for eternity. You get reeeeaaaally sick of turkey.

I wish my kids would stop bickering.

NamechangeWhatFor · 02/11/2019 09:16

Poof, your children turn into best friends and never want to move out.

I wish I had a bigger house.

cheesenpickles · 02/11/2019 09:23

POOF, you inherit a huge Grade I listed building in dire need of repair. It's full of death watch beetle and costs thousands a week to run.

I wish I could learn a new language.

TheNestedIf · 02/11/2019 10:19

Poof! You have! It's Klingon.

I wish there was more space in here.

ScreamingCosArgosHaveNoRavens · 02/11/2019 10:23

Poof! You now live in the International Space Station. Enjoy your vacuum-packed meals!

I wish I had more energy.

TheNestedIf · 02/11/2019 10:36

Poof! I hope the electric chair isn't too uncomfortable.

I wish we didn't have to start Christmas in July these days.

ScreamingCosArgosHaveNoRavens · 02/11/2019 10:42

Poof! From now on, Christmas will start in June instead.

I wish my cats could talk to me.

TheNestedIf · 02/11/2019 10:47

Poof! Granted. But they're cats. So prepare for a lifetime of coercive control.

I wish people would walk in a straight line and not veer across the pavement and bash into me like a skittle.

FrankenCat · 02/11/2019 10:56

Poof! Now all the school mums have to walk through your house to get to the road behind as it's the straightest route. Your house becomes the new pavement for all the school children including all the mums in pyjamas.

I wish I could find something interesting to watch on tv while I'm recovering from a hysterectomy.

ScreamingCosArgosHaveNoRavens · 02/11/2019 11:00

Poof! You get so hooked on a new drama series that it becomes an addiction, and you suffer cold turkey when you recover and can no longer spend all day watching it.

I wish I could find a new bag for work that met all my bag-requirements but was still within my budget.

FrankenCat · 02/11/2019 11:11

Poof! You have a beautiful blue ikea bag, it fits everything in especially when coupled with a nice little storage solution so you get little compartments for everything. And it's in your budget.

I wish someone would fetch me a bar of chocolate.

CandiceSucksCandy · 02/11/2019 11:22

Poof! You have a bar of chocolate, but its hersheys and out of date.

I wish I could do the splits

00100001 · 02/11/2019 11:25

Granted. You have chocolate, but it's crappy American chocolate, and has "artificially colored and flavored lard" as its main ingredient.

I wish it hadn't chucked it down...

ScreamingCosArgosHaveNoRavens · 02/11/2019 12:02

Candice Poof! You can do the splits, but when showing off your new skill, you get a splinter in your thigh.

00100001 Poof! All recent rain is erased - and all your plants wilt and die.

I wish I were a really good cook.

FurrySlipperBoots · 02/11/2019 12:37

Poof! You are now a famous chef, but the Queen has commanded you to become her live-in cook, so you have to leave everything from your old life behind, and work over holiday times, including Christmas.

I wish I could get my old computer games to work on my new laptop.

NameChangedNoImagination · 02/11/2019 12:51

Poof! Your old computer games work on your new laptop but you play so much it damages your relationship and you split up.

I wish I had more savings

00100001 · 02/11/2019 13:54

poof! an extra 1p is added to your savings.

i wish someone would make me a delicious sandwich

OP posts:
CigarsofthePharoahs · 02/11/2019 14:08

You can have my 5 year olds delicious sandwich. He's refused it. He has poked it quite a lot and sneezed on it, but I'm sure it's still fine.
I wish my bum would stop hurting from my ice skating tumble this morning.

NameChangedNoImagination · 02/11/2019 14:10

You can't feel the pain in your bum anymore because you've got an excruciating eye infection that hurts far more.

I wish I had a personal chef.
