:

Or have ninja smoke on command. Wait... scratch all the previous wishes. I wish I was a ninja, just so I could scream "NINJA SMOKE!" and disappear from a room in a cloud of vapor for no apparent reason.

No, I'm not joking. You have NO idea how much I wish I could do that. Imagine all the delicate situations you could escape from!

Whoooaa! thats such a good wish. Made me laugh.

I'm totally confused about what I would wish for, I'd love to have happiness in my life consistently, but then it would be boring.. cause in my opinion, life should have its highs and lows, its all part of the experience.

Having some form of superpower would be cool though :D

paramiteabe 07-01-2004 12:58 PM

I wish I had the power of God for one day so that I may split the Atlantic ociean.

Or I wish I could go into my paintings and explore the worlds that I create.

oddguy 07-01-2004 01:28 PM

:

there's a certain person whom I'd wish absolutely, madly in love with me forever and ever. Pretty selfish, huh?

I wouldn't want to force someone to love me. That's just...blah. You'd always know, in the darkest corner of your mind you'd know she only loves you because of your wish.

:

equality for all members of the human race for as long as the race itself lasts.

¿Communism?

That would be lame...you couldn't make everyone rich, because then you'd have nobody running the drive-thru or working at Wal-Mart. And if you made everyone poor, that'd seriously suck.

:

I wish i have the power to live for eternity without growing old.

Read Tuck Everlasting.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

I wished for magical powers earlier...but I'd like to be more specific.

I'd love to Fly!

Also, have the power to turn invisible!

And, I'm surprised nobody said this before, but it'd be great fun to possess people!

Oh, and command time like Jacob said.

-oddguy :cool:

Jacob 07-01-2004 01:57 PM

My power would kick all yo' powers, mofo's. Gods power? No chance when your frozen in time. Ninja smoke power? Feel my wrath of time control. Bwaha...ha...etc.

What would everybody do with their powers though? I'd probably make myself uber rich and kill people i disliked.

nads 07-01-2004 02:30 PM

One more, I wish my parents were happy.


I'm not explaining any of it, but today was a bad day and made me want to change my mind.

SeaRex 07-01-2004 03:07 PM

:

That's an awesome wish, PA. I feel ya. Hehehe... but I'm quite positive my characters wouldn't be too happy to see me...

"You nazi mother f*cker! Why the hell do you make me speak in a German accent?!"

What would I do with Ninja powers? That's easy. I wouldn't use transportation; I would just "ninja smoke" to where ever I wanted to go. Plus "ninja smoke" would have excellent comedy value.

Majic 07-01-2004 05:34 PM

Am I the only one who remembers that episode of The X-Files with the genie, here?:p

Anyways, too many things to wish for. But, I'd pick something selfish, of course. Something along the lines of a power, money, etc...

sligster 07-01-2004 06:02 PM

I'd wish for the power to reverse Jacob's time-controlling power, and tranfer it into me.

THE HEAT IS ON

Cloverfield 07-02-2004 03:14 AM

I'd wish that Sephiroth were real and that we were together. :)

Sorry, I'm obsessed. XD But hey, it would give the rule the world wish tied in as a bonus, cause there wouldn't be any Cloud around to stop him. Bwwahaha!!!

Havoc 07-02-2004 04:02 AM

I saw a guy who is like a half tiger, his is same colour, same eye's, he even got hi lips and mouch tigerish. It was on "Replyies beleive it or not".

Like Brew Master said, lot's of wishe's. But i would wish to had the power to teleport myself any where in the univeres.

I know that guy, he's realy crazy :p Has a tiger patern tatood all over his body, had his ears changed, had his teeth sharpend so they would look like one's from a tiger, and he wears contacts to make his eye's look that way. Last I heard he was planning in getting a 'Tail' inplanted... I dunno whats the use though, it would just hang there and that operation would so damn hurt :S :confused:

Lucipher 07-02-2004 08:52 AM

I wish that I could go back in time and be born when the earth was born. And I could only die when the earth dies. So I have every wish in existence. Except for one. Can you guess what that is? That wish is something that I already have, and is the greatest thing of them all... Mortality.

TheRaisin 07-02-2004 10:08 PM

Oddguy, I never said she's not already in love with me. :p Like I said, I have no idea. The thought probably hasn't even crossed her mind. I'm sure to catch her eye, though, when I come to the first day of high school lean, tan, tall and strong! Oh yeah, it's totally happening. But then again, I get the impression she's not the type to be wowed by guys with big physiques and ridiculous tans. Which just makes me respect and love her all the more! :happy:

As for making everyone equal, there would be no such thing as poor or rich. In a perfect world, everything would be distributed so perfectly that no one would need money for anything. Everyone would be able to get whatever they need, whenever they need it, but no one would be allowed to take someone else's share. Unless someone didn't want all of their share of everything, in which case whatever they didn't use would be redivided again among everyone in the world. Wow. That would be great. Of course, everyone would be expected to make some contribution, even something not necessarily defined as "labor", like some kind of artistic contribution. Everyone would get the job that was perfect for them, and everyone would be happy. But that's not going to happen in this eternity. Unfortunately, Utopia cannot exist for the human race. It's simply impossible. It's good to try to get our society as close as we can, though.

Ugh, I can't stand Sephiroth. I just cannot stand him. He would be the coolest villain ever, if it weren't for the fact that he appears one moment in FFVII and cuts down the person whom one spends the entire first half of the game trying to protect. Ugh. Makes my head hurt just thinking about how long it took me to get to that point in the game, only to witness that little plot twist. Blargh. :eek: :mad: :| :dead: Sphincteroph is pure evil! :evil: :evil: :evil:!

Smell 07-03-2004 12:21 AM

I'd wish for as many wishes I could want. Then I'd sort out all my problems, grab a broomstick and zoom off to Hogwarts. Dream on

Coiled Ice 07-03-2004 04:40 AM

Aww, that's cute..

As for me... I'd probably just wish to meet some bands... Pretty simple, really...

Facsimile 07-05-2004 01:30 AM

I would wish I could have my fiance back, that's right I'm engaged, with my gf, but her mom found out about said were to young for marriage and that we love eachother too much, and she separated us were not allowed to talk to eachother or have any contact, I love her so much I want her back so badly we were so perfect for eachother we never fought and we got along so well we even planned our future with eachother, and now were separated, she was my life, now I have nothing to live for I feel like kiling myself. :'(

Do you know how stupid you sound? Fourteen and you think you're in love?! "We were gonna get married but my mummy won't let me!".
Don't be so pathetic.

Esus 07-05-2004 04:05 AM

Ultimate control over space and time.

Cyber-Slig 07-05-2004 04:15 AM

This is very depressing but..here goes....I wish my sister left here boyfriend who takes drugs and let my nephew forget all about him.....My mum doesnt like my sister anymore because she wont dump a druggie boyfriend....There for I cant see my little nephew

Teal 07-05-2004 04:21 AM

*ponders* Y'know, Havoc, if you WERE to suddenly become half-tiger (same with all the people wanting to be "more than just human")... how happy do you think it'd actually make you? Being stared at all day every day, the pointing fingers and "weirdo freak" and so on... Just a litte philosophical thinking.

I don't know what I'd wish for. It's easy to be able to be grandiose and say "stability in the middle east", while it's obviously not ever going to happen, but if it came to the crunch and you WERE allowed one wish, I wonder how many people would live up to it and not just go "wheee wish mad power yay I wish I ruled the world, everyone bow down to MEEE!"

Jacob 07-05-2004 05:09 AM

'This is very depressing but..here goes....I wish my sister left here boyfriend who takes drugs and let my nephew forget all about him.....My mum doesnt like my sister anymore because she wont dump a druggie boyfriend....There for I cant see my little nephew'

Have you been on Jerry Springer by any chance?

Cyber-Slig 07-05-2004 05:15 AM

No I havent.Jerry Springer is gay.And ya know its very deppressing to learn someone you knew for a long time is on drugs.I think thats just sick making fun of it

TheRaisin 07-05-2004 01:56 PM

Excuse me? Is there a certain age at which one can experience love? Does love need to be certified by an outside observer? Do other people have to think one is in love for one to be in love?

I hate it when people think you can't fall in love at a young age, or when someone thinks that they can determine whether someone is in love or not.

Sekto Springs 07-05-2004 01:59 PM

I would want eternal life and the world in the palm of my hand so I could crush everything like a bug. I'm so depraved :D

TheRaisin 07-05-2004 02:00 PM

Yeah, you're depraved. You burned a rabbit! YOU NEED HELP!!!

Sekto Springs 07-05-2004 02:04 PM

I need anger management. I was irked by that damn thing, I killed it for a reason. :D

I'm saying that he's a moron and he doesn't know what he wants. And I'm betting you it's a little crush and he will be over it in a month or two.
That's not love.

Sekto Springs 07-05-2004 04:25 PM

Yes, here's a question. Why do you 'love' her? Because she's attractive? No. You can't love someone for their looks. Some of the most vain people are very attractive, and their beauty is usually the reason for their vanity. For her personality? There are strong ties with personal loves, yes, but she could be very ugly. I don't know this girl and I have doubts that you know much about her either. My girlfriend has been with me for years, it's not because I can't find another girl or that she can't find another guy, it's that we do love each other and don't just drift apart because of attractions to others.

ClaireBear 07-05-2004 09:45 PM

Love can be determined by age... it encompasses (sp!.. f**king DI! Yaada yaada... dyslexic!) a lot of feelings and experiences which a very young person would not understand or be able to experience...

One example out of the "Love Is... " context

Love is... not being embarrassed or enraged by your loved one when they're pissed out of their brain... you find it endearing, cute and you're concerned for their safety...

At 14 he shouldn't be getting drunk!

You need life experience to decide who and what is right for you... I don't argue that what... whats his name?... feels at 14 feels very real to him at the moment but I really doubt that his intended is the love of his life... although you do hear of people who have only ever dated eachothr since they were 16 and marry... shure they end in divorce but its a sweet story! :p

Oddfan 07-06-2004 05:31 AM

I have had alot of expirance and I hace thought about this for a long time ok, I'm a bit more mature then most others my age, I know what love is and I know who I'm suppose to be with, so don't doubt me, I know what I'm getting into and I have plans for the future already to be prepared for it, and claire bear don't give me that "it seems very real at the moment" crap, u don't think I havn't heard that already, well I know I'm in love, how do I know well the lust and excitment of a new relationship is gone, yet I still want to be with her, I'm attached to her, and I worry about her sometimes when were separated, and I'm not giving up on this girl even though her mom is separating us, were still sneaking phone calls, I love her I know it and I'm not giving up, get used to it, life and love will find a way on keeping us together if it's meant to be and I'm pretty damn sure it is.

Jacob 07-06-2004 09:37 AM

'I think thats just sick making fun of it'

I shall bare your opinion in mind and put it in my "Couldn't give a f*ck" folder for safe keeping.

Oddfan, you remind me of a guy i once heard about. He, too, loved a 14 year old and they both said they were in love. She loved him so much, she'd do anything for him, even cover up for him. He said he loved her too. It was so sweet, so romantic...he was 56.

Let's have a moment of silence, let's reflect upon my little story. Come on, sit around in a circle, hold hands.

TheRaisin 07-06-2004 10:21 AM

Jacob, I don't think that pertains to this situation at all.

oddguy 07-06-2004 11:52 AM

I think Jacob is saying that people in love at an early age don't exactly know what is best for them...or think clearly...err something like that.

-oddguy

Jacob 07-06-2004 01:21 PM

It was complete crap with a vague "children think they're in love, because they want to be in love". Such as when Paedophiles groom children, a very similiar situation. Well...not really, but in both cases the participants aren't really in love.

Saying that however, i fell in love in year 8.

Mac the Janitor 07-06-2004 06:41 PM

Oddfan, how long have you been with this girl?

I am just wondering, not trying to bash you or anything.

WiLL the Wander 07-06-2004 07:34 PM

14 years old humans are children? We're just youngs, no childrens anymore! At least in Hungary... This is the thing I hate Hungary...

TheRaisin 07-07-2004 07:50 PM

Good point. A fourteen-year-old isn't an adult, but nor are we children. We are adolescents, damn it, and we can feel love!!!!

Oddfan 07-09-2004 08:40 AM

I have been with her for only a half a year, and I could easily get another girl, there are plenty, but even though I am being separated from this girl and it would be easier just to find another, I'm not going to find another cause I love the girl I'm with now even though I'm not allowed to be with her.

Sekto Springs 07-09-2004 09:43 AM

No one said you can't feel love. It was simply stated that you don't know what real love is, you may think it's love, but it is it really? Or the fact that you make love sound so minimal.

Oddfan 07-09-2004 09:47 AM

if the lust is gone, u know all the excitment of a new relationship. but I still am attached to her emotionally and I want to be with her all the time still and don't want anyone else, what could that be?

If i could have any one wish it would have to be that the entire population of the Earth wouldhear and believe the gospel- in short, a world full of Christians who all respected and cared about each other.
