I've seen a simmilar forum game on the xkcd-forums, and it's quite funny. Here's how it goes:
- Person A makes a wish
- Person B grants the wish from person A, but he spoils is in such a way that you end up with a funny and bad result.
- Person B makes a new wish
- Person C grants the wish from person A, but he spoils is in such a way that you end up with a funny and bad result.
- etc. etc. etc...
An example of how it may look in action
A:
I wish I could play SimCity 4.
B:
Granted! You can now play SimCity 4 on your old Commodore 64.
I wish I had a faster computer.
C:
Granted! Your Commodore 64 is upgraded to the fastest computer available in 1991.
I wish I had more money.
And so on...
Keep in mind that forum rules apply here. So no obscene and offensive language. We should keep things civilized, funny and enjoyable. Additionally the three-post-rule also applies here.
Now let's start with the first wish (and let's see what's the result):
I wish I had more money.
Granted! Everything costs more now though.
I wish I had a better car.
Granted! You now have a V-12 sports car--but the gas and insurance cost more than your house.
I wish summer was here.
Granted! It's warm outside, but you have to work the whole day inside.
I wish I don't have to go to school.
Granted. But it snowed last night and the power is out.
I wish it would rain.
Granted! Good luck getting to school/work now, because all the streets are flooded.
I wish I can fly.
Granted! You're now transformed into a fly.
I wish I was a superhero.
Granted! However you do not have any superpowers (kind of defies the point of being a superhero, but anyway :P)
I wish studying wasn't so boring.
Granted. Now it's just hard.
I wish I lived closer to the store.
Granted! The store is now just across the river, but the first nearby bridge is 10 miles away.
I wish I had a boat
I grant you a boat. But it's made from old popsickle sticks, has no motor, no oars or no masts. But it does have helmsman that is always yelling at you.
I wish my potted plants wouldn't keep dying
Okay, your potted plants are now immortal. However, as a bit of a nasty side-effect of that, they kept on growing and engulfed your house.
I wish I had a better house.
Granted! It sucks that there is a giant tornado barreling down on it though :D
I wish I had a 64 GB iPod Touch.
Granted! But you have nothing to put on your new iPod. That means downloading (and paying for) every song from iTunes AGAIN!
I wish I had a time machine...
Done. It's called a clock. Enjoy.
Given my recent circumstances, all I would wish for is a new bed.
You have a new bed--a great bed! But you live on the arctic circle with no curtains and and it's summer so you're unable to sleep.
I wish someone would do my accounting for me.
Granted! But that accountant secretly takes 70% of your money away and put it on it's own bank account.
I wish I lived in the 24th century...
Granted, but Sc4D doesn't exist anymore and you can't go back.
I wish I could touch my elbow with my tongue :P
Granted, however you only have one arm and no legs now.
I wish I knew what to wish for.
Granted! This counts as a wish, so congratulations with spending your only wish!
I wish I passed my exams...
Granted, but with only 6 (C+ marks) you can't find a job. So your at home unemployed.
I wish I could sit on the moon
Granted, but there´s nobody else on the moon.
I wish my stolen bike could be back...
Granted, however the weels were not returned.
I wish public transport had less frequent delays.

I wish I had a spaceship.
Granted! Oops! I forgot the fuels :D
I wish i had a pizza :P
Granted! It went bad two years ago.
I wish I had seventeen hands and no feet.
Granted! All hands are mounted on the same arm...
I wish I had fuel for my spaceship I wished for three post ago.
Granted, however there was a fuel leak in the spaceship, so all the fuel was lost before takeoff.
I wish I had a fully functioning Boeing 757 with RB211's on the wings.

I wish I had a better computer to run games at full power while recording with fraps xD
Granted! However it is a windows PC which means it BSOD's every 5 minutes.
I wish I had one of those cute turrets from Portal 1/2
Granted! And you know what? GlaDOS is included! So you have to deal with an evil computer too!
I wish I had a Portal Gun
Granted. While holstering, it went off on the floor, and now you fall forever.
I wish my mattress didnt keep sliding from the wall.
Granted. It is bolted to your ceiling now however.
