Let's play The Wishing Game!
I know we've done it before, but I'm in the mood for another go. Here's how it works. Someone makes a wish, and you reply with how the wish goes wrong when granted. Example:
I wish for a million dollars!
>Granted, but it's stolen from a Columbian drug lord!
then you make a wish.

I'll start, I wish I was popular!

11. I wish I could (save a life if you respond to this one)
finally get the woman of my dreams to like me back and let me be her long term girlfriend.

Hey, all, I really need this one, so please make her out to be a total bitch to help me get over her once and for all.

Hint: If your old lady is really pissing you off lately, explain her as if she was the woman I like right now, and maybe I'll be able to get over her once and for all...

20. Make her meaner
Please. I have a feeling that is how she would be toward me any how. Thanks. Can you make her more of a bitch possibly?

I wish I knew all of those languages too. I can only speak English when I am typing. I speak gibberish when I try to talk. I'm from the south so it's the accent. Bad thing is, they don't understand me either. :shrug:
