h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Saw this elsewhere and thought it perfect for here

Someone makes a wish (any wish no matter how big, bizzare or silly) and the next poster says how the wish could be corrupted and then posts their own wish for the next poster to corrupt..

e.g.

1st poster: I wish for world peace

2nd poster: World peace is achieved but with no wars the population gets out of control and the world runs out of food and water and everybody dies..

So I'll go first

I wish I had a giant chocolate cake...

then you'd get fat and die of obisety
I wish for some money

1 Japanese yen is some money. Won't get you very far though

I wish it would stop raining

But if it stopped raining all the water wouldn't run into the lakes and seas and they'd all become stagnant and kill all the fishes. Plus the earth's flora would wither and die and then so would we, it would only be a matter of which killed us first - lack of oxygen or dead fish stink.


I wish for world peace.

World peace can only be achieved if you remove ambition from the world. Without ambition no one would seek to better themselves, all advancement stops, and society slowly reverts to living in trees.

I wish for everlasting love

You'd get sick of it

I wish for toast!

Too much wheat is bad for you. You'll end up with Irritable Bowels and spend all day on the loo



I wish for a parking space in work tomorrow.

You will get it, By the way, you're fired
I wish for a white christmas

But then you'll get snow blindness and won't be able to see anything. You'll stumble in front of santa's sleigh, the reindeers will swerve, the slege will tip and be dragged along on its side killing santa, and children of the world will never get presents at Christmas again..


I wish I wasn't so lazy

Then you'd work yourself to an early grave.

I wish chocolate wasn't fattening

The it wouldn't taste as good. Its part of the fundamentals of digestive physics if it's bad for you It tastes good.

I wish to understand what I just said
