Ruin A Wish! (game thread)

[moutonrouge]

I thought maybe a new thread with a game would be a fun way to start off a new week on the new board. 

If you haven't played Ruin A Wish before, the basic idea is that you post a wish, and the next poster to reply grants it but in such a way that it is ruined, and they post their new wish, and so on. For example:

Poster A: I wish for a date with Brad Pitt
Poster B: Granted, but he brings all his kids with him. 
              --
              I wish for a million dollars!
Poster C: You win a million dollars of Monopoly money. 
              --
              I wish it wasn't raining. 
etc etc. 

I'll go first - I wish I had some cookies.

I wish I was motivated to go to the gym.

Granted, but it's crowded and none of the equipment is available so you spend most of the time standing around waiting.

I wish my commute was shorter.

Granted, but only because you now live in your office on a cot. 

I wish I had a second candy bar (the first one went too quickly).

Granted, but it is a limo and you can never find parking or make right hand turns easily again. 

ETA: I wish I had a reserved parking spot at work.

Wish granted but it is the best spot in the lot so all your co-workers hate you and regularly egg your car. 

I wish I could fall asleep

Granted, but you'll oversleep by an hour in the morning.

I wish I could find a movie to watch.

Granted, but while you're in the middle of watching it your cable goes out.
I wish they still made my favorite model of running shoes.

Granted, but he's a stumbling fool that makes a huge mess of anything he touches.

I wish I had more gas in my car.

Granted, but you mix up your seeds and accidentally plant a garden of grass. 

I wish the dog could walk himself.

Gah, that's even worse than you know because I'm allergic to grass! Back to the game...

Granted, but he has no sense of direction and gets lost.

I wish the cat wasn't so annoying when she begs for food.

She's now adorable, but it is because she performs a full gymnastic floor routine when begging for food and expects to be rewarded based on difficulty level and quality of execution. 

I wish for warmer weather.

(I'd be okay with a cat like that)

Granted, but the weather is in the triple digits now.

I wish my rolls would rise faster.

Granted, but they rise too quickly and start to ooze all over your kitchen. 

I wish my taxes were all done.
