You are granted one wish, what would you choose?

I'll give a few possible choices. I've thought of this over and over again.

1st
I wish I had complete control to do whatever i want no matter how impossible it is.

2nd
I wish I could fly. I never can fly in my dreams only jump high. It's bugged me forever.

3rd
I wish I could travel the universe.

A man goes into a bar with an ostrich and a cat.
The bar tender says "What would you like Sir?"
The Man Says "I'll have a pint of beer"

He looks at the ostrich and says "What will you have?"
"I'll have a pint of beer" says the ostrich.
He looks at the cat "What will you have?"
"Half a pint of beer - but I'm not paying!".

"That will be £12.65" says the bartender.

So the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out exactly
£12.65.

The next day after work the man goes into the same bar.
"What'll it be today" says the bartender
"Double whisky on the rocks" says the man
He looks at the ostrich and says "What will you have?"
"I'll join you in a double whisky" says the ostrich
He looks at the cat "What will you have?"
Half a pint of beer - but I'm not paying!"

"That will be £21.95" says the bartender

So the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out exactly
£21.95.

The next day after work the man goes into the same bar.

"Excuse me" the bartender says "I was just wondering why, no
matter what the price, you always have the exact change in your
pocket?"

"Well" says the man "When my grandmother died she left me
everything in her house and inside there was a lamp so I rubbed
it and out popped a genie. It granted me three wishes so I
asked that every time I wanted to buy something I would have
the exact change in my pocket"

"That's brilliant" says the bartender "You'll never ever run
out of money". What else did you ask for?"

"A bird with long legs and a tight pussy"

I wish to give people eyes that see.

My wish would be for that wish to be bestowed on someone who really needs it and can do good for everyone with it.

I wish that wishes weren't so pointless and that someone really could grant a wish.

For all I know, of course, someone did grant the first part of that wish and proved the second part true, but we'll probably never know.

I feel such a fool, now, wasting that whole wish ....

Why not be that person and do the good yourself? Or is it that you want to be on the receiving end of the benificence yourself.

See? Another extremely selfish wish, as it turns out.

This is easy. I want everybody to be eternally happy, adding 1 degree of happiness for each day of my/their lives

That's all

EDIT: -selfish +ppl

I would wish for total transparancy of thoughts. So everyone will know what other people think all of the time, lying and stuff like that will be impossible. I realise that it would ruffle alot of feathers at first but it will be a good thing in the long run, if we survive . No more secrets or misunderstandings, i'd like that. Oh and that people have the capacity to deal with it ofcourse without going crazy.

haven't you seen the Futurama episode where Bender is god?? see what happens... not a good idea

One wish and could be for anything? hmmmm...

I wish that from this moment and for forever, any act of aggression, conflict, hostility, or plain nastiness perpetrated by any human being will result in uncontrollable fits of the giggles in the aggressors until they wee themselves and can't stand up for laughing so hard

you would find an entire subculture of people acting aggressive for the high of bursting into giggles. It would become an addiction.

1 wish--- I would be the only one world leader. With this I would have access to everything I need. Maybe.

I would wish that i had 9.999.999.999.999.99 wishes.

With so much wishes i could change the world forever and wouldnt have to worry about forgetting to wish something

I would wish there would be no more wars between different groups of people. Since the basis of war is almost always is another force as different views than another force. I think as a world we could get so much accomplished.

I would want all of earths secrets to be revealed to me.UFO's,religious secrets,secret societies, etc... My head would probably explode but its a risk Im willing to take to get the truth.

I'd wish I were God so I could find out once and for all if I existed or not.

That the USA "finds" its' own true-self within itself... last one out turn off the light.

I would wish for the abililty to give health and healing to those who need it by touch, without comprimising my own health.

What you call 'transparent thoughts' is not far off. When this happens the governments and the controllers of the world will not be able to get away with anything and nor will your neighbour. Before that can happen the masses need to wake up and the smell the sulphur. My wish:
I wish for the masses to wake up so that we can collectively strive for a peaceful planet in this Universe.

here is a wish that I have as a sign on my car:
My sign says:
"This wish is sponsored by God:
I wish for evil to be a forgotten memory.
Amen"
