Granted, you develop a acute phobia of everything beyond the FoS forums, any attempt to leave it and you fear you'll perish, being devoured by a million giant red ants.

I wish they'd never started the smoking ban for public buildings in the UK :(

Granted! They ban smoking in private buildings too! :twisted:

(It's an eery feeling to go into a restaurant and be seated in what used to be the "Smoking Section"...)

I wish Denny's weren't full of drunks in the morning.

Granted, a new law prohibit the drunk's entrance there till afternoon. Instead of there, the now more than ever angry drunk people come to your house... at 6amadn stay there till afternoon! :lol:

I wish to know what I'm going to do this evening not the last minute as always! :x

Due to a mistake of identity, you are confused with a known escaped felon. You are sent to prison where you know you will be confined to solitary with nothing but yourself and a beetle for company.

Granted! You open a portal to the Far Realm and get eaten by eldritch horrors.

I wish my stuff would quit falling over.

Granted, instead it falls over one last time and you cannot seem to get it back up.

Granted, your pepsi is frozen.

I wish I had a copy of the mammoth book of true crime.

You are indeed given a mammoth sized copy of the tome.
It requires forklifts and labor unions to open the cover and turn the pages.
The labor union is currently on strike but, with the arbiter that was hired, it should be resolved be the year 2029.


I wish I had a better internet connection that dial-up.

Granted! You get high speed WiFi set up in your home, but it costs $100 a month and the neighbors are always leeching off of it.

I wish the coffee house downtown would serve meat instead of tofu.

Submitted for your approval, Spiteful Crow, a man with a craving. Trapped in a world obscessed with bean curd, he searchs for meal to satisfy his taste.

[SpitefulCrow:] Wow, my local coffee house has changed management, and they serve meat. Hooray.
[Manager:] Yep, we cook everything from this book. "To Serve Man".
[SpitefulCrow:] (muffled by food) Um-hun...
[Manager:] You know... "To Serve Man" Meat on the menu... You know.... (nudges and winks)
[SpitefulCrow:] (shakes head while chewing)
[Manager:] You're eating people!
[SpitefulCrow:] But its still meat, right?
[Manager:] Un huh
[SpitefulCrow:] Sweet.

Submitted for your approval, one Spiteful Crow, who found statisfaction in a little coffee house, three blocks away from the Twilight Zone.

I wish gas stations would stay open at night instead of leaving me with an empty tank in the freezing cold.

Granted! The gas stations stay open at night, and close at day, leaving millions stranded on the roads without gas. When they ask about it, the Gas employees direct them to you.

I wish ScS would turn into a gas station that stay open at night.

Granted. You instead ruptured your deltoid, triceps brachii, latissimus dorsi, serratus anterior, brachialis, pronator teres....

(How often does somebody hand an anatomy professor a line like that one? :wink:

(Oh, well, guess I'll play fair and pass that opportunity along! :lol: )


I wish lecturing about the urinary system to my students didn't always, by the power of suggestion, make me want to pee.

Granted! Instead, every time you lecture about the circulatory system, you somehow get a nosebleed.

I wish the theaters in town would sell Dots so I wouldn't have to sneak them in my coat.
