Granted, but it has a strange side effect, which makes all members of the opposite sex flee before you can get close to them...

I wish to make a living, being my own boss.

Granted. You're a workaholic. But as a boss, you're an evil one, paying wages terribly low, in this case to yourself. Frustrated, you wanted to quit your job, but before that happened, your boss have already fired you.

I wish I could select myself what movie is going to be aired on TV while I'm watching it.

Granted, but the movie will be interrupted by commercials every few seconds during the entire broadcast...

I wish to have enough money to make a weekly giveaway. ;)

Granted, but you don't have enough money to pay your internet bills. You no longer have access to the interwebs.

I wish to have enough luck to win every single giveaway. :P

Granted, but soon, driven by jealousy and paranoia, everyone here will think you are cheating somehow. The brightest minds of the forum will investigate your whereabouts, which will be promptly transmitted to the GOG Assassins' Guild...

I wish for a better world.

Granted. Overpopulation leading to resource shortage is reduced by removing you from it.

I wish all the Chuck Norris facts would apply to me too.

Granted, but the original Chuck Norris can't bear it, so the two of you begin to fight against each other. The clash between two forces so incredibly powerful torn the universe apart...

I wish to discover the cure for cancer.

Granted, but by the time you discover that cure, the world's population has already been going for healthy lifestyle, giving no chance for cancer cells to ever exist.

I wish to know where's the GOG Assassins' Guild located. :D

Granted, but because you've just exposed the existence of the GOG AG, the guild's internal police put you in the purge list. Now you have to run away and go hiding for your life as a former GOG AG assassin.

I wish to be able to select who is eligible and who isn't to be admitted into the GOG AG.

Granted, you're now the GOGAG Chairman. But as promotion to senior positions is obtained through the murder of your chief and you've twelve vice-presidents, your life expectancy is rather scarce...

Damn, now I wish to be a GOGAG vice-president. ;)

Granted, you become the 21st GOGAG vice president. Your authority is lesser than the 20th's, whose authority is further smaller than the 19th and so on. Nevertheless, congratz! :D

I wish I could bribe the GOGAG vice-presidents.

Granted, but to be effective bribery, you must bribe all the VPs, respecting their rank to do it, bribing first to the 21st VP with a huge amount of money (thanks!), then the 20th with a still greater amount, and so on. For when you've reached the 2nd, you're totally bankrupt and begging in the streets.

I wish to retire from the GOGAG to enjoy a quiet life with the money of le_chevalier.

Going offline. Have fun, you all !

Granted, but not for long, since I've promised the 20th VP your share for him. And since you've retired, you have no power.

It was fun. See you! :)

I wish I could find the dilithium crystals here on Earth.

Granted, but you didn't know the method to extract them safely and now, among other strange (and interesting) side effects, you shine like a light bulb at all times. In fact, the light not let you sleep anymore...

I wish we find an abundant, cheap and environmentally friendly energy source.
