Be Careful What You Wish For

You know the old adage be careful what you wish for because it just might come true, and the fact of the matter is it's very, very true.

Some people may wish for a new car, the retun of a loved one (see: The Monkey's Paw) or even something much less obvious, occasionally obscure. I for one wish that my 'C' button would stop sticking and making it difficult to type quickly.

The problem is that when you wish for something, and you aren't totally dead-on specific, well, wishes can go badly very easily. You may wish for a windfall in money...but it could come from the death of someone who means alot to you. You could wish for a car...and be killed by it. A love...they're a crazy person. Just you name it, any wish has the potential to go horribly, horribly wrong. Try asking Genie or the Blue Caterpillar for a wish and not having them twist it a little just to mess with you.

There's a bunch of movies about it, not to mention a fab Supernatural episode involving a life-sized emo teddy bear and a wishing well.

So, the question is what would you wish for? If you could have anything, what would you wish for?

And what would you do if it went wrong?
