corrupt wishing well of doom

Granted, but you end up wishing for a bigger challenge.

I wish I could find another food source for whales so they will leave the krill alone

granted they now eat swimming humans

I wish that whales would do that

Granted, it's mostly Japanese people.

I wish a full whale hunting ban had been agreed in Japan and not just for one species

Granted. But all of the video game designers are shanghaid into working on whale poaching ships, and no video games get made.
(making something illegal is a good way to make sure there is less control over it)

I wish games would come out at a much quicker rate, with ads much or more quality as now, and at a less expensive price than now.

Granted, but all games makers start making SqEnix style mess-ups.

I wish a really good traditional FF would come out

Granted. But it's a remake [bleagh face]

I wish this posty hadn't messed up.

You mean the postman?

Granted, but then he breaks his contract. Postmen are supposed to be crap!

I wish I knew if I'd got the context correct or if I just had another Miss Valentine moment

No, the post messed up, and when I fixed it, I misspelled post.

I do, however, wish SHounen Jump hadn't messed up by sending me a damaged copy with the trading card missing, and then forgotten when I asked them for a replacement.

Granted, you get a fake one from an anonymous source.

I wish I could forward to a point in time when I have much more knowledge.

granted but it is when I am gone

I wish it were sunday

Granted, but it's the last Sunday of vacation.

I wish students didn't have to get a job

granted but then you would be crushed by one of the car traps

I wish fire would be more fun

Granted, you set the Great Wall Of China ablaze

I wish I could see that!

Granted. But because the wall is made of stone, the price of flammable materials used as propellants and fuel more than doubles (noooooo!)

I wish corporations and politicians would actually put more money and time into R&D for hydroelectric cars, and that the senate would quit banning useful stuff.

granted but they get that money from you

I wish I had more brains

Granted, I give you mine to go along with the one you already have, therefore only increasing your IQ by 1

I wish I had a camera

granted but it is broken into tiny pieces

I wish I was a headcrab zombie

Granted, you can accompany my new pet headcrab

I wish I knew how to look after this cute little critter!

granted you just have to feed it 5 mellons a day

I wish the mellon price would go up

Granted, if you are a headcrab you will go hungry

I wish I could eat mellon

granted but it is frozen solid

I wish it was christmas already

Granted, but you can't get out of bed because you have lost all your energy partying in fast mode.

I wish my PSP was still free (found out I have to start paying for it after Christmas, dammit my mum is making me pay?!? )

granted but your mom takes it back

I wish people weren't so back stabbing

Granted, they are openly hateful.

Who's been backstabbing? I hate that!

I wish it didn't exist

granted but people stab you in the foot

I wish for a hamburger
