Here is a game that I have seen on other boards and it is really fun to play.
Rules:
The first poster posts a wish, such as "I wish I won $1,000,000 in the lottery." The next poster grants the wish, but then says something that happens to make the wish a terrible one.
For instance, in reply to the $1,000,000 wish, they would say, "Granted. You win the lottery, but the only payout option is $1.00 per month for 1,000,000 months."
After you grant the previous wish, you make a new wish at the end of the post, and the next poster does the same thing over again
Cheryl,
Your wish is granted. You may eat all the chocolate you want without gaining weight. But you've suddenly been afflicted with the worst case of acne of anyone you've ever known.
Alinnell, I thought you may have killed the thread, but I came up with something:
Poof! No debt! As a result, you have nothing on which to base a FICO score, therefore you have no credit rating and need to build one before you can get a loan to buy that cool new convertable, or home, or lake home, or what-have-you.
I wish ... that I wasn't 5'11", but was a sleek, small-boned 5'8".
Poof! You can now run an 8 minute mile. But you ran so fast that you realized you forgot to wear pants and are running down the street in your underwear!
Poof* you are completely caught up on your to do list. So you rip the page out of your notebook to throw it away and find a whole other page of to-dos!
