3 Wishes*

Ok, I'm bored, so I'm going to posed the same question to FOFC, that I just posed to stevew in his FTB thread:



You have 3 wishes, but these wishes do not come without rules.


Rule 1 - You must choose a singular object.

Rule 2 - You can choose any object* fictitious or real, even if the item would seemingly not work in reality. In other words, any item you wish for will actually work here.

*You may not pick an object that would somehow create money or more wishes.

Rule 3 - The object of your wish cannot be a person.

Rule 4 - The object you choose cannot be, nor can it be bigger than the Death Star.

Rule 5 - The object you wish for cannot directly kill, nor can it directly give life to another human.


So, what are your 3 wishes?

Sure, you can have it. I suppose that a photon torpedo doesn't directly kill a person.

i think instead of that i'd rather have a house all paid off. That way I would only need to work to pay for utilities and insurance...and I could spend the rest of my time using those lifetime airline tickets to make the recipient of the everlasting love potion as happy as she deserves to be

It gives eternal life, not life to another human. So its fair game.

1. some "object" that allows you to control people's minds and manipulate them (there must be one somewhere in some comic or whatever)
2. Holy Grail
3. Starship Enterprise (even if you want to take the weapons away i'm cool)

I can live forever, flying around the galaxy and getting anything that I want with my mind control (as far as $$ or possessions or whatever)

Good point.

I tried to come up with three things I'd like more than what other people have already listed (e.g. Excalibur, Ark of the Covenant, Noah's Ark)...and I couldn't so I'll just steal from everyone else.

1. Holodeck
2. Holy Grail
3. Invisibility Cloak

Man I'm lame.

#1 perfect fitness and health, delivered through some innocuous body oil(NOT massage oil, perverts).

#2 A Battlestar (Pegasus would do nicely)

#3 Cybernetic implants that allow me to move through time and space as needed and containing the full wealth of knowledge of the entire universe.


That should do it, I know all, I can go anywhere, anytime and I look as bad ass as my ship does. The ultimate Dorkgasm!

1) I will go with the aforementioned life elongator, with the ability to shut it off if/when I am ready to die

2) I will go with the previously mentioned invisibility cloak - for as many decent reasons as indecent ones (though the indecent ones ain't bad!)

3) A magic button, that when pressed makes everyone in the the world have unconditional love for one another, just by bring out the possibility of that love which we all possess in some form. If that is a little too big/much, then just give a ray gun with that power and with my cloak and infinite life I will just have to go around zapping everyone!
